The Transparent

Everywhere I go people seem to look right through me
What do they know?
Their pastel eyes keep crashing on the walls
If you could lower your voice
I’d like to tell you that you’re on to something
I open my mouth
My dying words keep dripping to the ground
In another world we live
Nothing here to give
Surreal
And the park lights lead the way
Nothing here it’s where they’ll look for me
A whisper in my ear
I turn around there’s nothing there
They’ve all disappeared
A distant sound of footsteps in the air
So here I lie before
These empty streets that swirl around me
I crawl through the drain
And embrace these eyes that shine at me
'Cause in another world we live
Nothing here to give
Surreal
And the park lights lead the way
Nothing here it’s where they’ll look for me
It’s where they’ll look for me
It’s where they’ll look for me
It’s where they’ll look for me
For me
It’s where they’ll look for me
It’s where they’ll look for me
