Why I Don't Believe In God - Everclear

I heard the truth about you 
And it really doesn't read at all 
Like the whipping stick you raised me with 
A scared woman in a private hell 
Hushed voice like electric bells 
Strange talk about Edgar Casey 
And the long lame walk of the dark 70's 
Strange talk about Edgar Casey 
And the long lame walk of the dark 70's 
I heard the truth about you yeah you 
Mama they woke me up 
I was deep in an idiot sleep 
I was just eight years old 
Heard big words with a horrible sound 
Why'd they have to call my school 
Tell me my mother had a nervous breakdown 
I wish I believed like you do, yeah you 
In the myth of a merciful god 
In the myth of a heaven and hell 
I hear the voices you hear sometimes 
Sometimes it gets so much 
I feel like letting go 
Sometimes it gets so hard 
I feel like letting it go 
Sometimes it gets so goddamn hard 
I feel like letting it all go 
Letting it all go, letting it all go 
Letting it all go, letting it all go 
I ran away and went looking for you 
Back to culver city and the old neighborhood 
Need to know if you were really gone 
Need to know if you were gone for good 
I ran through the projects at night 
Hide in the dark from my friends in the light 
Hide from my brother-in-law 
Hide from the things he'd say 
Said you weren't losing your mind 
He said you just needed a rest 
He said you'd be coming home soon 
He said the doctors there would know what's best 
Said that maybe I could go live with dad for a while 
I know the truth about you, I know the truth about you 
I know the truth about you, I know the truth about you 
I know the truth, I know the truth, I know the truth 
I know the truth about you 
Mama they woke me up, I was just eight years old 
Sometimes it gets so hard, I feel like letting it go 
Sometimes it gets so hard, I feel like letting it all go 
Letting it all go, letting it all go 
Yeah, letting it all go
