Tori Amos - Silent All These Years LYRICS

Excuse me but can i be you for awhile,
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 am 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 and its been here
silent all these years

so you found a girl who thinks really deep thoughts
whats so amazing about really deep thoughts
boy you best pray that i bleed real soon
hows that thought for ya
my scream got lost in a paper cup
i think theres a heaven where some screams have gone
i got 25 bucks and a cracker do you think its enough
to get us there cause...

years go by will i still be waiting for somebody else
to understand, years go by if im stripped of my beauty
and the orange clouds raining in my hand, 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
lets hear what you think of me now and baby dont look up
the sky is falling
your mother shows up in a nasty dress
now its your turn now to stand where i stand
everybody lookin at you you take hold of my hand
yeah i can hear them
