A Better Place

If ever you find yourself beaten and broke
 And can't feel the wind for the weight of the yoke
 And fear that the night will not turn into day
 Remember the darkness will show you the way
 It's a long way away, it's a long way away
 And I'm all alone, alone, alone
 All alone, alone, a long way away
 Inside the mind of a man is a massacre
 Made up of many of miniature message
 And misses the most of it
 So convoluted design for disaster
 It's making the best of a universe
 Far too expansive to cope with
 And he never chose nor was chosen
 By metrics that make any sense
 And the senses are numbed by emotional stresses
 There must be a
 Better place to
 Be somebody
 Be somebody else
 Who got time on a string on a finger
 Nothing to remember
 But the passage of it
 Who got time to let anything linger
 Where it hovers
 Surely you will learn to love it
 Who got time for this love shit anyway
 Gotta survive
 Isn't that mess enough for him
 There must be a
 Better place to
 Be somebody
 Be somebody else
 Set a course
 It's a bet upon an endless
 Roulette wheel odds are ungodly
 As are the odds of the body
 Making it through and surviving the gravity shift
 The gravitized self which lost
 From the lost thoughts of a being ch-ch-chopped
 To a bite size in the light eyes
 [?] don't leave the messenger
 The messages and SOS and other S's
 In the language where it goes
 There must be a
 Better place to
 Be somebody
 Be somebody else
 And somebody gotta keep watch where the watch stops
 He talks about his pops in polarity
 Fingers fantasize of rocks there will never be
 Land whole likely [?] hole
 And the man's [?] heaven
 He's demanding the evidence for something
 That maybe never was for anyone
 He's missing something pretty
 He's missing where the air tastes gritty
 He's missing the splendor and misery
 Of bodies, of cities, of being missed
 There must be a
 Better place to
 Be somebody
 Be somebody else
 Flesh is weaker than the metal, it is true
 But the metal's being moved into a thing it doesn't do
 Circuitry is only serviceable as much as it is you
 So why don't you use it
 'Til you use it up, abuse it
 It is strong, it can take it if you can't
 Your sinews are more intuitively designed for dance
 Well it set up a randomly course safely away from suns
 Four-hundred and twenty-three
 By a hundred and twelve by fifty-one
 There must be a
 Better place to
 Be somebody
 Be somebody else
 Inside the mind of a man is a mystery
 Made up of these centuries
 Of mistakes he believes
 Are important to be
 Part of his DNA, calls it history
 Species with memories longer
 Don't bother with sweating the old shit
 Maybe it's this time-bound conscience
 That keeps him out pushing through nothing
 With only the hope [?] belief that
 There must be a
 Better place to
 Be somebody
 Be somebody else
 Are you ready to go
 Are you ready to go yet
 Let's go
 Are you ready to go yet
 Let's go
 Are you ready to go
 Are you ready to go yet
 Let's go
 Are you ready to go yet
 Let's go
 There must be a
 Better place to
 Be somebody
 Be somebody else
 Go
