lyrics

I don’t want you to find me
I don’t want you to remind me
Anyone who is blind can see
That I want to be invisible

You can’t control me
I don’t want you to console me
Just forget that you know me
Baby, I’m invisible

Gonna live on the fringes
Hidden in plain sight
The way the day turns into night
Keep my head down
Stay in the back
I’ve gone underground
I’ve slipped through the crack

You can’t fool me
You can’t get to me
Maybe you think that you can see right through me
But baby, I’m invisible

Them stars in the night
Are long since dead
But we hold on to their light
By a vanishing thread
Slowly fading away into the abyss
Like existential photosynthesis

Imagined memory of a forgotten lie
You betrayed your ignorance when you accepted mine
Faith is of no consequence
You underestimate your insignificance
I ain’t strong enough to need
These things that are making me bleed
Inauthentically breathing and deceiving from being truly seen

I don’t want no trouble
Just let me stay in my little bubble
Mama always said I’m more lovable
As long as I stay invisible

Be what you wanna be
That becomes what’s real
See what you wanna see
And choose what to reveal
It’s your choice
You can change your mind
I believe that we wanna be invisible sometimes
