The Invisible Boy Songtext

von W.A.S.P.

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, corss my back
Yeah I'm the new whipping boy

Who am I ? the orphan son you would never need?
Who am I ? cause l'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

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
Titanic misery, ashamed you're alive
I'm the face that you see
When the face isn't yours
I'm the mirror my boy
