|
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 shout 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 |
|
Close behind you in St. Stephen |
|
You lit a candle |
|
Blessings in the cold night air |
|
I'll feel your breath as you turn to go |
|
I'll watch you leave |
|
From somewhere up high |
|
As you cross the park |
|
In the Autumn light |
|
In the Autumn light |
|
In the Autumn light |
|
If I close my eyes |
|
I can see where you live |
|
Climb the winding stairs |
|
Up to your apartment |
|
The scent of you preparing |
|
His evening meal |
|
I must 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 passing 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 scream 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. |
