  • Oh July
    It's better off since April died
    I can see September through the trees
    And I can't lie
    There's more to know than what's inside
    Maybe there's some reason in my memories
    But all I know
    It's easier to love you when I'm gone
    But it's hard for me to leave
    I don't know
    This anger isn't helping anyone
    And I don't know what I need

    Oh St. Marie
    Close my eyes before you leave
    So I don't have to look at you in shame
    Oh St. Marie
    Take my hand and give me peace
    Cause I don't think I'll ever be the same

    Here come the broken hearts
    Just as the music starts
    One by one they testify
    I never did enough
    I never cared enough
    Even though I stood, I always ran away
    We all wonder why
    It's easier to blame the ones you love
    Cause it's harder to believe
    That we fall sometimes
    No matter how I try, I've given up
    But now I have a chance to be

    Oh St. Marie
    Close my eyes before you leave
    So I don't have to look at you in shame
    Oh St. Marie
    Take my hand and give me peace
    Cause I don't think I'll ever be the same

    Sometimes the quiet ones
    Are all I want to be
    There's only so much left
    The rest is up to me
    You're all I'll ever want
    I hope you feel it 'cause
    As far as I'm concerned
    You're exactly what I need

    Oh St. Marie
    Close my eyes before you leave
    So I don't have to look at you in shame
    Oh St. Marie
    Take my hand and give me peace
    Cause I don't think I'll ever be the same
    Cause I don't think I'll ever be the same
    Cause I don't think I'll ever be the same Writer/s: Christopher Anthony Martucci, Corey Taylor, John Mark Carroll Bechtel, Joshua James Rand, Roy Maurice Mayorga
