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
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
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 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
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
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

这首歌原唱是Tori Amos,1984年,那一年21岁的不幸女孩在罗杉矶的某一夜,经历了人生最可怕的梦魇。搭便车的女孩竟然遭到乐迷的强暴,事后还遭受死亡威胁。

听说这首歌是演唱者被她的歌迷强奸后的第一首歌,真是好可怜!!!
91年冬天她的处女大碟<Little Earthquake>发行,90年代是她事业的黄金年代。我想这首歌算是她过渡期逐渐从阴影走出时的歌曲,所以这首歌听起来比较阴郁。

我想这首歌中的all these years就是指的她离开乐坛的7年,所以会说silent all these years( 已沉默多年),这首歌应该用来表达了她这些年来的寂寞和忧伤,同时也有自己从阴影中坚强走出来的一面。
