lyrics

Oh Julia
Julia, do you remember how the church bells rang
How your Sunday dress looked, and how the angels sang
But they kept us in a stranglehold, they filled our heads up with fear
And I saw the light in your eyes disappear through the years

Oh Julia
I think I finally found the truth
You gotta kill whatever’s been killing you
Oh Julia

Sunday morning on Main Street, with the walls closing in
We washed the shame from our faces, left from last night’s sins
Your mama told me she prayed for me, I think that I understood
She must have seen something in me, I just doubt it was something good

I just wanna let you know, I think I’m finally free
Tell the congregation not to waste their grace on me
