Lyrics

[Verse 1] I'm trying to tell you something about my life Maybe give me insight between black and white The best thing you've ever done for me Is to help me take my life less seriously 'Cause it's only life after all, yeah [Verse 2] Well, darkness has a hunger that's insatiable And lightness has a call that's hard to hear And I wrap my fear around me like a blanket I sailed my ship of safety 'til I sank it I'm crawling on your shore (Here we go) [Chorus] I went to the doctor, I went to the mountains I looked to the children, I drank from the fountains Yeah, but there's more than one answer to these questions Pointing me in a crooked line (Whoo) And the less I seek my source for some definitive (Y'all sing it) Closer I am to fine (All right), yeah Coser I am to fine, yeah [Verse 3] Well, I went to see a doctor of philosophy With a poster of Rasputin and a beard down to his knee He never did marry or see a B-grade movie He graded my performance And he said he could see through me And I spent four years prostrate to the higher mind Got my paper and I was free (Yeah) [Chorus] And I went to the doctor, I went to the mountains I looked to the children, I drank from the fountains Yeah, but there's more than one answer to these questions Pointing me in a crooked line And the less I seek my source for some definitive Closer I am to fine, yeah Closer I am to fine, yeah [Verse 4] I stopped by the bar at 3 a.m To seek solace in a bottle or possibly a friend And I woke up with a headache like my head against a board Twice as cloudy as I'd been the night before And I went in seeking clarity [Chorus] I went to the doctor, I went to the mountains I looked to the children, I drank from the fountains Yeah, we go to the doctor, we go to the mountains We look to the children, we drink from the fountains Yeah, we go to the Bible, we go through the workout We read up on revival (Y'all), and we stand up for the lookout There's more than one answer to these questions Pointing us in a crooked line And the less I seek my source for some definitive Closer I am to fine, yeah Closer I am to fine Closer I am to fine, yeah [Outro] Thank you.
