marillion – the invisible man lyrics

Loading...

the world’s gone mad
and i have lost touch
i shouldn’t admit it
but i have
it slipped away while i was distracted
i haven’t changed
i swear i haven’t changed
how did this happen?

i didn’t feel myself
evaporating…

my body has gone
but my eyes remain
hovering, witnessing
cold as a ghost… watching the streets
sheltering in doorways of
venice, vienna, budapest, krakow and amsterdam

i have become the invisible man

the invisible heart beating against you
the invisible pulse silently thumping

i should my name in the public places
no one seems to notice
no one understands
i stand perfectly still
in the middle of the road
i hold my nerve
i hold my nerve
hold my nerve
but the cars don’t swerve

i will hear your prayers
as you whisper alone
i am the one you felt was close
you lit a candle
blessings in the cold night air

i will feel your breath as you turn to go
i will watch you leave
from somewhere up high
as you cross the pardk
in the autumn light
in the autumn light
in the autumn light

if i close my eyes
ican see where you live
climb the winding stairs
up to your apartment
the scent of you preparing
his evening meal
i ust watch in dread
when he’s cruel to you
in horrified silence
as you make love
i cannot lift a hand
lift a hand to stop him
i don’t exist what can i do?
what can i do?

i will scream in your ear
as you’re p-ssing by
i will wrap my arms around you
you won’t hear, you won’t feel me
i will walk stride for stride with you
i will try to help
when you stumble
you will stumble through me.

i have become the invisible man
it’s all i am
invisible

i have read all your letters
i know what you contain
i have dreamt your dreams
my head…
my head is haunted
i will scram again
i am perfectly sane
i am perfectly sane
but i am
the invisible man
i am the invisible man

talk to me
acknowledge me
confide in me
confess to me … or
leave me be
leave me be.
