"Silent All These Years"
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 thougts
What's so amazing about really deep thoughts
Boy you best praya 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 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 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 [x3]
And it's been here
Silent All These Years
I've been here

多莉•艾莫丝（Tori Amos，1963年8月22日－），出生于北卡罗莱纳州，本名麦拉•艾莲•艾莫丝（Myra Ellen Amos）
是运用 70 年代的音乐手法于富有文学性的另类摇滚之中的为数不多的几个女性歌手兼作曲家之一。
是运用 70 年代的音乐手法于富有文学性的另类摇滚之中的为数不多的几个女性歌手兼作曲家之一。
尽管Tori并不是那种惯于使用商业操纵手法进行炒作的流行歌手，但她每张专辑之中，必须会一些作品会不知不觉地流行起来。而从最早期那首被王菲翻唱成《冷战》的“Silent All These Years”，还有后来的“Winter” 等歌曲开始，她一直喜欢采用钢琴作为主要的伴奏乐器。
认识Tori是缘于爱人！
那时，刚认识爱人不久，而他正开始在YMCA中心学习手语。问他为什么，他说他有病，担心他不久会耳聋，听不见，所以未雨绸缪。我听罢，深信不疑。过后，他又拿出他的珍藏Tori Amos的"Silent All These Years"，对我说，这首歌最能代表他的心情。记得那天，夜深人静的夜晚，打开那首歌，让我感受良多。
过了一段日子，他才向我解释说是开玩笑的，问我是不是真的相信他。
唉，我真的太单纯了！
