Silent All These Years

專輯：小地震 (Little Earthquakes)歌曲：Silent All These Years (LP Version)作曲：Tori Amos作詞：Tori AmosExcuse me but can I be you for a whileMy dog won't bite if you sit real stillI got the Anti-Christ in the kitchen yellin' at me againYeah I can hear thatBeen saved again by the garbage truckI got something to say you know but nothing comesYes I know what you think of me you never shut upYeah I can hear thatBut what if I'm a mermaidIn these jeans of his with her name still on itHey but I don't careCause sometimes I said sometimes I hear my voice and it's beenheresilent all these yearsSo you found a girl who thinks really deep thoughtsWhat's so amazing about really deep thoughtsBoy you best pray that I bleed real soonHow's that thought for youMy scream got lost in a paper cupYou think there's a heaven where some screams have goneI got 25 bucks and a cracker do you think it's enoughTo get us thereBut what if I'm a mermaidIn these jeans of his with her name still on itHey but I don't careCause sometimesI said sometimesI hear my voice and it's beenheresilent all these..Years go by will I still be waitingFor somebody else to understandYears go by if I'm stripped of my beautyAnd the orange clouds raining in my headYears go by will I choke on my tearsTill finally there is nothing leftOne more casualtyYou know we're tooeasyeasyeasyWell I love the way we communicateYour eyes focus on my funny lip shapeLet's hear what you think of me nowbut baby don't look upThe sky is fallingYour mother shows up in a nasty dressIt's your turn now to stand where I standEverybody lookin' at youhere take hold of my handYeah I can hear themBut what if I'm a mermaidIn these jeans of yours with her name still on itHey but I don't careCause sometimesI said sometimes I hear my voiceI hear my voiceI hear my voiceAnd it's beenheresilent all these yearsI've been heresilent all these yearsSilent all theseSilent all theseyears
