Emily Saliers, 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

I went to the doctor, I went to the mountains I looked to the children, I drank from the fountain 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 closer I am to fine.

And now someone's on the telephone desperate in his pain Someone's on the bathroom floor doing her cocaine Someone's got his finger on the button in some room No one can convince me we aren't gluttons for our doom
