Invisible
Chester See Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Words can't describe just how pretty your smile is to me
How do you define a beauty that you've never seen
I think there could be something more
But I'm wasting time
With you on my mind
As hard as I try I'm ignored

Chorus
I sing a song but you can't hear as you walk by me
As you walk by me and I'll catch my breath
I'll sing again and I pretend that you might like me
You might like me but it's all in my head
It's all in my head

Verse 2
I don't know why
I just can't stop thinking of you
It hurts me inside cause I can't figure out what to do
Never felt like this for someone before
Why can't you hear me
Why can't you hear me
I wish you could see but you don't

Chorus
I sing a song but you can't hear as you walk by me
As you walk by me and I'll catch my breath
I'll sing again and I pretend that you might like me
You might like me but it's all in my head

Bridge
Oh I feel so invisible
Oh I feel so invisible

I feel so invisible

Chorus
I sing a song but you can't hear as you walk by me
As you walk by me and I'll catch my breath




I'll sing again and I pretend that you might like me
You might like me but it's all in my head

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Chester See's song "Invisible" revolve around the theme of unrequited love, where the singer is deeply infatuated with someone who doesn't reciprocate his feelings. In the first verse, he marvels at the person's beauty, but is frustrated by his inability to capture their attention despite his efforts. He sings about how he wishes he could express his feelings, but he feels ignored and invisible in the other person's eyes. The chorus captures his despair and hopelessness, as he sings about how his attempts to get noticed fall on deaf ears. He imagines singing to the other person, but they ignore him completely, leading him to feel that his affection is all in his head.


In the second verse, he confesses that he can't stop thinking about the person, and is tormented by not being able to understand why they don't feel the same way. He wonders why they can't hear his feelings, and expresses his desire for the person to see him for who he really is. The bridge repeats the phrase "I feel so invisible," underscoring the singer's sense of being unseen and unheard by the person he loves. The final chorus is perhaps the most poignant, as he sings about how he will keep singing to the person, even though he knows it's all in his head.
