To Be Invisible

Lyrics

To be invisible
 Will be my claim to fame
 A man with no name
 That way, I won't have to feel the pain
 Indispensable
 Just a plain old human being
 Today, don't mean a thing
 In a world that's so mean
 A world that seems not for me
 So privately, I'll be invisible
 That way, I won't have to explain a thing, if you know what I mean
 I won't even have to be here, on the scene
 It's so ridiculous
 But the strife and the bliss
 Will go right on through, right on through me
 To have missed
 All the things that hurt your soul
 No one would ever know
 They'd never know
 Life so preciously
 Just don't seem to be
 As free as they claim freedom to be
 Things are going fast
 To have found that all is in the past
 To have to take what you can get
 Sure can make a heart upset
 Inconspicuous
 I must behave myself
 For somebody else
 Who may have a little fame, fortune and wealth
 It's so ridiculous
 But the strife and the bliss
 Will go right on through, right on through me
 To have missed
 A world that seems not for me
 So privately, I'll be invisible
 That way, I won't have to explain a thing, if you know what I mean
 I won't even have to be here, on the scene
 It's so ridiculous
 But the strife and the bliss
 Will go right on through, right on through me
 To have missed
 All the things that hurt your soul
 No one would ever know
 They'd never know
 Life so preciously
 Just don't seem to me
 As free as they claim freedom to be
 Things are going fast
 To have found that all is in the past
 To have to take what you can get
 Sure can make a heart upset
 So I'll be invisible
 Invisible
 Invisible
