Lovely, I'm about to fall over and my cell rings.... trip to the grocery store, pick up cigarettes etc. The fresh air will be nice. Where are my fucking sunglasses? Hell, I'll wear those stupid ones.
Here's the lyrics. Great song. If anyone is reading this dreck... try to play nice, take care of yorself, try to be nice to the people who care about you.
Indigo Girls - Closer To Fine Lyrics by Emily Saliers one of the Indigo Girls
I'm trying to tell you something about my life
Maybe give me insight between black and white
And the best thing you've ever done for me
Is to help me take my life less seriously
It's only life after all
Yeah
Well darkness has a hunger that's insatiable
And lightness has a call that's hard to hear
I wrap my fear around me like a blanket
I sailed my ship of safety till I sank it
I'm crawling on your shores
I went to the doctor, I went to the mountains
I looked to the children, I drank from the fountains
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
(the less I seek my source)
The closer I am to fine
The closer I am to fine
And I went to see the 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, he said he could see through me
I spent four years prostrate to the higher mind
Got my paper and I was free
I went to the doctor, I went to the mountains
I looked to the children, I drank from the fountains
There's more than one answer to these questions
Pointing me in a crooked line
The less I seek my source for some definitive
(the less I seek my source)
The closer I am to fine
The closer I am to fine
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.
Damn I need sleep.

You should italicize song lyrics ...
Did they actually write those lyrics? They're interesting, that's for sure.
You mean you stay up for 30+ hours at a time? That CANNOT be a good thing. I adore sleep.
Unfortunately yes, I can stay up that long. That doesn't happen too often though.
I really just don't sleep. It's horrible. I love sleep as well.
Now you know one of the reasons for my odd behavior. I bet you thought it was just the vodka.
Yes, the lyrics are theirs. Emily wrote that song. (I don't know which of them is which) As far as I know they write all their own music.
italicize... Picky picky picky. You're lucky everything is spelled right! (or at least mostly right) :-)
Hah! So there. I fixed it. **makes silly faces at Arc and tosses nerf ball at him**
