lyrics

A Better Place
(Lyrics by Marcelo Radulovich - © 1986)

Pregnant with the idea of a better place
east of things like heaven and hell
a place where ears are not deaf to screams
but the price of emancipation is a high one

Youth it spits out many contradictions
as many as the stars in the sky
time tracks our decisions
fickle convictions would leave us dry

But if a walk should take us there
would we find the streets cleaner
fresher the scent of flowers
or another Christ with a bag of guilt

Pregnant with the idea of a better place
east of words that mean nothing
a place where eyes are not blind to sin
and where peace is not just a dream

There's plenty of room for yearning in our lives
plenty for sleepless nights
plenty for thoughts of discipline, but discipline likes to hide

But if a walk should take us there
would we find the streets cleaner
fresher the scent of flowers
or another Christ with a bag of guilt
