The Invisible Boy
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
Jonathan to his father:
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
Jonathan:
Oh I got the same old reruns, horror movies in my head
And I can't rest, they scare me to death
But if I'm not alive, how can I be dead?
Jonathan to his father:
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
