[Intro]
I'm sitting down here
But hey, you can't see me
[Verse 1]
Your words cut rather deeply, they're just some other lies
I'm hiding from a distance, I've got to pay the price
Defending all against it, I really don't know why
You're obsessed with all my secrets, you always make me cry
You seem to wanna hurt me, no matter what I do
I'm telling just a couple, but somehow it gets to you
But I've learned how to get revenge and I swear you'll experience that someday
[Chorus]
I'm sitting down here, but hey, you can't see me
Kind of invisible, you don't sense my stay
Not really hiding, not like a shadow
Just thought I would join you for one day
I'm sitting down here, but hey, you can't see me
[Verse 2]
I'm not trying to avoid you, just don't wanna hear your voice
When you call me up so often, I don't really have a choice
You're talking like you know me and wanna be my friend
But that's really too late now, I won't try it once again
You may think that I'm a loser, that I don't really care
You may think that it's all forgotten, but you should be aware
'Cause I've learned to get revenge and I swear you'll experience that someday
[Chorus]
I'm sitting down here, but hey, you can't see me
Kind of invisible, you don't sense my stay
Not really hiding, not like a shadow
Just thought I would join you for one day
I'm sitting down here, but hey, you can't see me
Kind of invisible, you don't sense my stay
Not really hiding, not like a shadow
Just thought I would join you for one day
[Instrumental Break]
[Bridge]
You seem to wanna hurt me, no matter what I do
I'm telling just a couple, but somehow it gets to you
But I've learned how to get revenge and I swear you'll experience that someday
[Chorus]
I'm sitting down here, but hey, you can't see me
Kind of invisible, you don't sense my stay
Not really hiding, not like a shadow
Just thought I would join you for one day
I'm sitting down here, but hey, you can't see me
Kind of invisible, you don't sense my stay
Not really hiding, not like a shadow
Just thought I would join you for one day
I'm sitting down here, but hey, you can't see me
Kind of invisible, you don't sense my stay
Not really hiding, not like a shadow
Just thought I would join you for one day
I'm sitting down here, but hey, you can't see me
Kind of invisible, you don't sense my stay
Not really hiding, not like a shadow
Just thought I would join you for one day
