Lyric The invisible boy
Jonathan:
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, the 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
Jonathan to the mirror:
Oh, why me?
The mirror:
Why him
Jonathan:
Can you tell me?
The mirror:
It s confession again?
Come talk to me, I see in your eyes
Titantic misery, ashamed that you re alive
I m the face that you see
When the face isn t yours
I m the mirror my boy
Some people never go crazy
What truly boring lives they must lead
Is there no love to shelter me?
Only love, love sets me free
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, the 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
Jonathan to the mirror:

The mirror:

Only love, love sets me free
