Invisible

Verse 1)

I’m the quiet in the corner at the table,

The shadow on the wall they never name.

I listen while they spill out all their chaos,

Patch the pieces, take the blame.

They don’t see the weight I’m holdin’,

But I’m steady through the break and bend—

I’m the one they call at midnight

When the world turns on them.

(Pre-Chorus)

And I don’t ask for golden hours,

Don’t need the center stage.

I just keep showin’ up in the silence,

Even when they forget my face.

(Chorus)

’Cause I’m invisible, but I’m real—

The hands that pull them from the fire.

A ghost that loves with iron will,

No applause, no light, no choir.

I’m the echo they lean on when the ground feels thin,

The friend they forget ‘til the storm rolls in.

Yeah, I’m invisible…

But I’m always there again.

(Verse 2)

I’m the voice that tells them they’ll get through it,

Even when I’m drowning under mine.

Their sunlight never seems to hit my windows,

But I still show up every time.

I don’t break their hearts with absence,

I don’t vanish when it hurts to stay—

I hold the line, unnoticed,

Till the dark runs out of day.

(Pre-Chorus)

Maybe someday they’ll remember

The one who never walked away.

But I don’t hang my hope on that—

I’ve learned love’s quiet work is brave.

(Chorus)

’Cause I’m invisible, but I’m real—

The hands that pull them from the fire.

A ghost that loves with iron will,

No applause, no light, no choir.

I’m the echo they lean on when the ground feels thin,

The friend they forget ‘til the storm rolls in.

Yeah, I’m invisible…

But I’m always there again.

(Bridge)

Maybe being seen ain’t the same as being known,

And maybe being known ain’t the same as being shown.

But I’ll keep standing in the doorway

When their world starts crashing down—

’Cause someone’s gotta be the quiet strength

In a too-loud town.

(Final Chorus)

I’m invisible, but I’m real—

A steady heartbeat in the wire.

A soul that loves with iron will,

No spotlight, stage, or choir.

I’m the whisper that catches them before they fall,

The name they forget but the one they call.

Yeah, I’m invisible…

But I’m there through it all.
