I Once Heard a Boy

[Verse 1]
I once heard a boy who said, "God is asleep"
I ripped off my clothes and I started to weep
As I cried out and yelled and I stamped my feet
To wake him up
I once heard a girl who said that "God is dead"
My soul started shaking and so did my head
I could not protest because I lost my voice
And my world started to rumble

[Chorus]
I went to the doctor, I went to the shrink
They gave me some pills, and they told me to think
They suggested to me that I'd lay down and rest
It would pass in a year, maybe two

[Verse 2]
Well, I ran to the mountains, I climbed to the top
The wind started blowing and lifted me up
As I flew over the city I heard that my name
Was spoken tenderly

[Chorus]
I went to the doctor, I went to the shrink
They gave me some pills, and they told me to think
They suggested to me that I'd lay down and rest
It would pass in a year, maybe two
Maybe two

[Refrain]
Na-na-na-na-na
Na-na-na-na-na-na-na
Na-na-na-na-na-na
Na-na-na-na-na

[Outro]
I once heard a boy who said, "God is asleep"
I ripped off my clothes and I started to weep
How to tell them about my belief?
How to tell them about my belief?
