Closer To Fine
Amy Elizabeth Ray, Emily Ann Saliers
I'm tryin' to tell you somethin' about my life
Maybe give me insight between black and white
But the best thing you ever done for me
Was to help me take my life less seriously
'Cause it's only life after all, yeah
It's only life after all
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 'til I sank it
I'm crawlin' on your shores
I went to the doctor, I went to the mountains
I looked to the children, I drank from the fountains
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
The closer I am to fine
The closer I am to fine, yeah
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
And 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
But there's more than one answer to these questions
Pointing me in a crooked line, yeah
And the less I seek my source for some definitive
The closer I am to fine
The closer I am to fine
I stopped by the bar at 3 AM
To seek solace in a bottle, or possibly a friend
And I woke up with a headache like my head against the board
Twice as cloudy as I'd been the night before
I went in seeking clarity
I went to the doctor, I went to the mountains
I looked to the children, I drank from the fountain
Yeah, we go to the Bible, and we go through the workout
And we read up on revival, and we stand up for the lookout
And 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 closer I am to fine
The closer I am to fine
The closer I am to fine, yeah
The closer I am to fine (to fine)
The closer I am (the closer I am)
The closer I am (the closer I am)
The closer I am to fine (to fine)
The closer I am
I'm tryin' to tell you somethin' about my life
Estou tentando te contar algo sobre minha vida
Maybe give me insight between black and white
Talvez me dê uma visão entre preto e branco
But the best thing you ever done for me
Mas a melhor coisa que você já fez por mim
Was to help me take my life less seriously
Foi me ajudar a levar minha vida menos a sério
'Cause it's only life after all, yeah
Porque é só vida afinal, sim
It's only life after all
É só vida afinal
Well, darkness has a hunger that's insatiable
Bem, a escuridão tem uma fome insaciável
And lightness has a call that's hard to hear
E a leveza tem um chamado difícil de ouvir
I wrap my fear around me like a blanket
Eu envolvo meu medo em mim como um cobertor
I sailed my ship of safety 'til I sank it
Naveguei no meu navio de segurança até afundá-lo
I'm crawlin' on your shores
Estou rastejando em suas margens
I went to the doctor, I went to the mountains
Fui ao médico, fui às montanhas
I looked to the children, I drank from the fountains
Olhei para as crianças, bebi das fontes
But there's more than one answer to these questions
Mas há mais de uma resposta para essas perguntas
Pointing me in a crooked line
Apontando-me em uma linha torta
And the less I seek my source for some definitive
E quanto menos procuro minha fonte para algo definitivo
The closer I am to fine
Mais perto estou de estar bem
The closer I am to fine, yeah
Mais perto estou de estar bem, sim
I went to see the doctor of philosophy
Fui ver o doutor em filosofia
With a poster of Rasputin and a beard down to his knee
Com um pôster de Rasputin e uma barba até o joelho
He never did marry or see a B-grade movie
Ele nunca se casou ou viu um filme de segunda categoria
He graded my performance, he said he could see through me
Ele avaliou meu desempenho, disse que podia ver através de mim
And I spent four years prostrate to the higher mind
E passei quatro anos prostrado à mente superior
Got my paper and I was free
Peguei meu diploma e fui livre
I went to the doctor, I went to the mountains
Fui ao médico, fui às montanhas
I looked to the children, I drank from the fountains
Olhei para as crianças, bebi das fontes
But there's more than one answer to these questions
Mas há mais de uma resposta para essas perguntas

Mais perto estou de estar bem
I stopped by the bar at 3 AM
Parei no bar às 3 da manhã
To seek solace in a bottle, or possibly a friend
Para buscar consolo em uma garrafa, ou possivelmente um amigo
And I woke up with a headache like my head against the board
E acordei com uma dor de cabeça como minha cabeça contra a tábua
Twice as cloudy as I'd been the night before
Duas vezes mais nublado do que eu tinha sido na noite anterior
I went in seeking clarity
Fui em busca de clareza
I went to the doctor, I went to the mountains
Fui ao médico, fui às montanhas
I looked to the children, I drank from the fountain
Olhei para as crianças, bebi da fonte
Yeah, we go to the Bible, and we go through the workout
Sim, vamos à Bíblia, e passamos pelo treino
And we read up on revival, and we stand up for the lookout
E lemos sobre o avivamento, e nos levantamos para a vigia
And there's more than one answer to these questions

Well, darkness has a hunger that's insatiable
Bueno, la oscuridad tiene un hambre insaciable
And lightness has a call that's hard to hear

I wrap my fear around me like a blanket
Envuelvo mi miedo alrededor de mí como una manta

Navegué mi barco de seguridad hasta que lo hundí
I'm crawlin' on your shores
Estoy arrastrándome en tus costas
I went to the doctor, I went to the mountains
Fui al médico, fui a las montañas
I looked to the children, I drank from the fountains
Miré a los niños, bebí de las fuentes

Señalándome en una línea torcida
And the less I seek my source for some definitive
