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 Antichrist in the kitchen yelling 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? |
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 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 |
And it’s your turn now to stand where I stand |
Everybody looking at you, here, take hold of my hand |
Yeah, I can hear them |
But what if I’m a mermaid |
In these jeans of yours with her name still on it |
Hey, but I don’t care cause sometimes |
I said sometimes I hear my voice, I hear my voice |
I hear my voice and it’s been |
Here, silent all these years |
I’ve been here |
Silent all these years |
Silent all these |
Silent all these years |
