Silent All These Years - Midnite String Quartet

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 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

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 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…
