Invisible
Invisible presence
Alone here, in this crowded room...
Stars and starlets all around me,
An invisible man without a clue,
No one even knows my name
If I leave, nothing here would change
Alone here, in this star filled place
I wonder, what I did to get me here...
Empty stares leave without a trace,
I could get up and walk away,
I'm an invisible man anyway!
Chorus
Why do I feel, so invisible?
I don't care, no, I don't care!
Their haughty eyes with their shallow stares
I don't care, no, I don't care!
Alone here, gazing at these stars,
but, when they look, they look right through me
They won't show who they really are
A humble man in a pride filled place
When they look, they can't see my face
Chorus
Why do I feel, so invisible?
I don't care, no, I don't care
Their haughty eyes with their shallow stares
I don't care, no, I don't care
repeat chorus fade
