New Lyrics: "Oh"

Pumpkins after Halloween, faces caved-in, turning brown A January Christmas tree, at the rainy curbside now A drunken message that's re-read, hungover, next day in bed Now just a corpse we tried to shock back to life but there's no luck Oh, ...... But I still feel the same Oh, ...... But something has completely changed An awkward joke that doesn't land, a punchline no one understands A friendship ended after years, when laughter couldn't stop your fear Nothing to be said at all, the poison underneath came up And I will not swallow it, won't hold your pain while you give up Oh, ...... And I still feel the same A small car gets hit by a van "Thank God the pastor's wife survived for every life God has a plan" The other family died on site But walkin' on this sunny day Through the foothills and I see A single leaf fall from a tree yellow, twirling, silently And I know there's more to this because there's nothing left to be And I don't know anything so I feel completely free Oh, ...... You waited so long for the pitch, just to swing and then to miss And it is not "the thought that counts," when you see their face turned down But take it with a grain of salt, freedom is your own damn fault 'Cause that's the way you wanted it So come on, now, it's time to live! Oh, ...... The trees still look the same Oh, ...... But they've completely changed
