  • Invisible kid
    Never see what he did
    Got stuck where he hid
    Fallen through the grid
    Invisible kid
    Got a place of his own
    Where he'll never be known
    Inward he's grown
    Invisible kid
    Never see what he did
    Got stuck where he hid
    Fallen through the grid
    Invisible kid
    Got a place of his own
    Where he'll never be known
    Inward he's grown

    Invisible kid
    Locked away in his brain
    From the shame and the pain
    World down the drain
    Invisible kid
    Suspicious of your touch
    Don't want no crutch
    But it's all too much
    Invisible kid
    Locked away in his brain
    From the shame and the pain
    World down the drain
    Invisible kid
    Suspicious of your touch
    Don't want no crutch
    But it's all too much, yeah

    I hide inside
    I hurt inside
    I hide inside, but I'll show you

    I'm OK, just go away
    Into distance let me fade
    I'm OK, just go away
    I'm OK, but please don't stray too far

    Open your heart
    I'm beating right here
    Open your mind
    I'm beating right here
    Right now
    Open your heart
    I'm beating right here
    Open your mind
    I'm beating right here
    Right now

    I hide inside
    I hurt inside
    I hide inside, but I'll show you

    I'm OK, just go away
    Into distance let me fade
    I'm OK (I'm OK), just go away
    I'm OK (I'm OK), but please don't stray too far

    Open your heart
    I'm beating right here
    Open your mind
    I'm beating right here

    Open your heart
    I'm beating right here
    Open your mind
    I'm beating right here
    Right now

    Ooh, what a good boy you are
    Out of the way and you're kept to yourself
    Ooh, can't you see that he's not here
    He doesn't want the attention you give
    Ooh, unplugging from it all
    Invisible kid floats alone in his room
    Ooh, what a quiet boy you are
    He looks so calm floating 'round and around in himself

    Invisible kid
    Locked away in his brain
    From the shame and the pain
    World down the drain
    Invisible kid
    Suspicious of your touch
    He don't want no crutch
    But it's all too much
    Invisible kid
    Locked away in his brain
    From the shame and the pain
    World down the drain
    Invisible kid

    Don't want no crutch
    But it's all too much, yeah

    I hide inside
    I hurt inside

    Open your mind
    I'm beating right here
    Right now
    Open your heart
    I'm beating right here
    Open your mind
    I'm beating right here
