My fourth day into doing this. I kinda enjoy doing this, since I get to read a lot of lyrics about heartbreaks, from which I learnt how to write my own lyrics. Although I'm coming out forthright that I prefer to be a writer than a lyricist. All those rhymes and patterns are driving me crazy as I'm writing my current song. But I finish a song, it's a darling to me, 'cause it is a result of lots of thinking, even if it's just short stencils. So far, I've only completed one song (I daresay this. Heh!), and another one on the way. Rather dissatisfied with the current one I'm writing because I can't seem to get the feelings out, nor have the time to really think what I'm missing.
Back to my latest song in the list. "Invisible" is probably one of the more famous song of Clay Aiken. The word "invisible" really calls out to me, since sometimes, when you like someone, the person may not know you, or acknowledge you, making you feel invisible. This song is a bit ambiguous about whether the protagonist knows the girl of the song, but it's clear that he's yearning for her, and wishes to know her better. The lyrics also eerily seems to suggest that the protagonist wants to be with the girl in a stalker-like way. Hm...
Well, it's still a good song to listen to. Enjoy!
"INVISIBLE" By Clay Aiken
What are you doing tonight
Are you really alone
Who's stealing your dreams
Why can't I bring you into my life
What would it take to make you see that I'm alive
If I was invisible
Then I could just watch you in your room
If I was invincible
I'd make you mine tonight
If hearts were unbreakable
Then I could just tell you where I stand
I would be the smartest man
If I was invisible
(Wait...I already am)
Saw your face in the crowd
I call out your name
You don't hear a sound
I keep tracing your steps
Each move that you make
Wish I could read what goes through your mind
Wish you could touch me with the colors of your life
If I was invisible
Then I could just watch you in your room
If I was invincible
I'd make you mine tonight
If hearts were unbreakable
Then I could just tell you where I stand
I would be the smartest man
If I was invisible
(Wait...I already am)
Reach out
But you don't even see me
Even when I scream out
Baby, you don't hear me
I am nothing without you
Just a shadow passing through
If I was invisible
Then I could just watch you in your room
If I was invincible
I'd make you mine tonight
If hearts were unbreakable
Then I could just tell you where I stand
I would be the smartest man
If I was invisible
(Wait...I already am)
