Silent All These Years - 2015 Remaster

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
 Do you think there's a heaven
 Where some screams have gone?
 I got twenty five 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 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 lookin' 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
