Lyrics

There's sleepin' bags in the doorways of closed dollar stores
Hummin' pink neon signs, plastic diamonds remind
Some they've fallen behind, from the days when they shined
Has the whole world gone blind?

Tent cities haunt our parks, don't go walkin' after dark
Battered corpses they're stark, dead eyes peering like a shark
Bloodied hands, frail bones hunched and aching, still they're goin'
But they don't know where they're going, am I...

Invisible to their eyes, Invisible, passersby
They just turn a blind eye, tune me out, let me lie on the pavement, and I'm
Soaked in rain, cloaked in lies, If we're the same I don't know why, I'm
Invisible to their eyes

You brought this all on yourself, you brought this all on yourself
Don't do blamin' no one else, and as far as I can tell
You don't deserve no one's help, you should've known your demons well
Looks like you've earned your own hell

I was once right and pure, straight and running with the herd
Clocking in with the troops, jumping through their fiery hoops
Of dead end jobs, proper clothes, with happiness under my nose
This ain't the life I would've chose

Invisible to their eyes, Invisible, passersby
They just turn a blind eye, tune me out, let me lie on the pavement, and I'm
Soaked in rain, cloaked in lies, If we're the same I don't know why, I'm
Invisible to their eyes
