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

Yea 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

Yea 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 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 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 looking at you

Here take hold of my hand

Yea 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 years

Silent all these years
