How one person in a relationship can essentially become invisible when, even though they are standing right in front of you, they don't hear you and they only respond with a powerplay of damaging words.

Invisible Girl

You hide away inside yourself
Right after you appear
Using words that leave me cut
Then you disappear

But you're still standing
Retreated to your favorite landing
Lost inside your shell of steel
I feel my soul begin to kneel

I saw you hesitate
Right before your hostage take
Can't penetrate
Your momentary zeal, oh-oh-oh

You're so evasive to my pleas
You do it with such ease
Incommunicado
Where's the girl I used to see

I can't go on
In this endless marathon
You've become somebody else
I call

Invisible Girl
(that's who you are)
Invisible world
(that's where you live)

Invisible Girl
(that's who you are)
Invisible world
(that's where you live)


You live, you know
You can't pretend
So watch out now
It's still the same old end

Ah-ah, yeah-yeah
It's always gonna be
The same old end
Oh yeah-yeah

Always gonna stay
The same old end
