I was just a kid I needed answers I found a screen Promised adventure

Just as I thought I had it all I pulled the trigger And nothing happened

I was in a dream I was in heaven I saw a god I had a question

Opened my eyes Fell out the sky Tried to remember But there was nothing

Then you gave me something Something to believe in Yeah you gave me something Something to believe in

‘Cause I was just a kid I was just a kid How’d it get like this?

And the story ends But life goes on so Like those before And those to follow

Just when you thought You knew it all You find another And then it happens

‘Cause you gave me something Something to believe in Yeah you gave me something Something to believe in

‘Cause I was just a kid I was just a kid ‘Cause I was just a kid

And you gave me something Gave my life a meaning And you gave me something Something to believe in

‘Cause I want something to believe in Yeah I want something to believe in
