Silent All These Years Songtext
von Stefanie Sun

Excuse me but can I be you for a while?
My dog won′t bite you if you sit really still
I got the Anti-Christ in the kitchen yelling at me again
Yeah, I can hear that been saved again by the garbage truck
I've 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

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 ya?
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

′Cause 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 ′til finally there's 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
Mother shows up in a nasty dress
It's your turn now to stand where I stand
Everybody looking at you and take a hold of my hand
I can hear that


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
