(Composição: Tori Amos) 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 yelling at me again Yeah, I can hear it 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 I 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 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 hand 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 It's your turn now to stand where I stand Everybody looking at you You 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 Silent all these years Silent all these Silent all these years
