Lyrics Silent All These Years - Midnite String Quartet

Silent All These Years

excuse me but can I be you for a while my dog won’t bite if you sit real still
I got the
anti-Christ in the kitchen yellin’at me again yeah I can hear that been saved
again
by the garbage truck I got something to say you know but nothing comes yes I know
what you think of me you never shut up yeah I can hear that but what if I’m a mermaid in these jeans of his with her name still on it hey but I don’t care
cause
sometimes I said sometimes I hear my voice and it’s been here silent all these
years
so you found a girl who thinks really deep thoughts what’s so amazing about
really
deep thoughts boy you best pray that I bleed real soon how’s that thought for
you my scream got lost in a paper cup you think there’s a heaven where some screams
have
gone I got 25 bucks and a cracker do you think it’s enough to get us there
years go by will I still be waiting for somebody else to understand years go by if I’m
stripped of my beauty and the orange clouds raining in my head years go by will I choke on my tears till finally there is nothing left one more casualty you know we’re too
easy easy
easy well I love the way we communicate your eyes focus on my funny lip shape
let’s
hear what you think of me now but baby don’t look up the sky is falling your
mother
shows up in a nasty dress it’s your turn now to stand where I stand everybody
lookin’at
you here take hold of my hand yeah I can hear them…
