Oh, I believe in something else -
There's no name for it in spite of men more clever than I
Wistful men of scripture wander the earth
'Cos of their faith they're born to die
Or else are not pious…
Seems a long time just to be waiting to live my life! I say -
It's so much better each time
I feel like I could die
I feel like everything's fine
It only happens of course
When I run onto their swords
I'm never knowing quite why, but I…
I believe in something else
Oh, I believe in science being a window
We look out of but never back inside
And I believe that weeks and streets cheat the feet
Of anyone that tries to run beside -
But never you mind!
Falling behind is where I found the best of life! I say
It's so much better each time
I feel like I could die
Oh, I feel like everything's fine
It only happens of course
When I run onto their swords
I'm never knowing quite why, but I…
Yes, I believe in something else
(watch me now…)
Children of a different design all march to different drums
But they're all marching in time!
That's a funny coincidence; that's funny don't you think that they'd realise?
And masses singing songs for a child
But the melodies wild and they're all out of time!
Some who sing, well they hardly start -
They sing with half a heart and in doing so they lie
But I'm not the one to decide, who's pulling the wool over your eyes;
'Cos I've only lived behind my own eyes
And if I told you different it'd just be a lie. I say…
Each man believes it's his right
To show the others the light -
But a minds' limit's a life
Each in each others exile
And guiltier than those they try
Oh it's no small wonder that I, yes I …
I believe in something else
