The Invisible Boy Songtext
von The Happy Mess

I was the boy unwanted
A prisoner I′m born to them
My brother was the one, that couldn't do no wrong
And I was there dying in the shadow of him

Red, crimson red
Am I the invisible boy?
Feel the strap, cross my back
Yeah, I′m the new whipping boy

Who am I? The orphan son you would never need
Who am I? 'Cause I'm the boy only the mirror sees
Who am I? The slave you gave just the air I breathe
Who am I? ′Cause I′m the boy whom neither mirror sees

Oh, I got the same old reruns
Horror movies in my head
And I can't rest, the scare me to death
But if I′m not alive, how can I be dead?


Red, crimson red
Am I the invisible boy?
Feel the strap, cross my back
Yeah, I'm the new whipping boy

Who am I? The orphan son you would never need
Who am I? ′Cause I'm the boy only the mirror sees
Who am I? The slave you gave just the air I breathe
Who am I? ′Cause I'm the boy only the mirror sees

Oh, why me?
Why him
Can you tell me?
It's confession again?

Come talk to me, I see in your eyes
Titanic misery, ashamed you′re alive
I′m the face that you see when the face isn't yours
I′m the mirror, my boy

Who am I? The orphan son you would never need
Who am I? 'Cause I′m the boy only the mirror sees
Who am I? The slave you gave just the air I breathe
Who am I? 'Cause I′m the boy only the mirror sees
