Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Nothing feels right
You say you missin’ me
But the math ain’t mathin’ right
Like a rip tide
Pulled in by the lies
You say you love me
But that’s your wantsIn a disguise
Stuck inside
Nothing feels right
You say you missin’ me
But the math ain’t mathin’ right
Like a rip tide
Pulled in by the lies
You say you love me
But that’s your words
In a disguise
Fade to black
Fade to black
You pretend to lift me up
It’s just a selfish love
The moment I can’t show up
Or god forbid I give to myself
I fade to black
Invisible
You physically see if I can serve you
You’re there in a hurry if I cater to you
My humanity is not part of your view
Fade to black
Invisible
Fade to black
Fade to black
Stuck insideNothing feels right
You say you missin’ me
But the math ain’t mathin’ right
Like a rip tide
Pulled in by the lies
You say you love me
But that’s your words
In a disguise
Stuck inside
Nothing feels right
You say you missin’ me
But the math ain’t mathin’ right
Like a rip tide
Pulled in by the lies
You say you love me
But that’s your wants
In a disguise
Perceptions can be so damn shallow
Paper thin and hollow
We’re all layered human beings
Jump into the deep
Fade to black
Invisible
Oh beyond
Instant validation and gratification
Is the one who bares their gifts
Causes many shifts
Never seen and never heard
Fade to black
Invisible
Fade to black
Fade to black
Fade to black
Fade to black
Stuck inside
Nothing feels right
You say you missin’ me
But the math ain’t mathin’ right
Like a rip tide
Pulled up in the lies
You say you love me
But that’s your wants
In a disguise
Fade to black invisible
The lyrics of Claire Reneé's song "Invisible" paint a vivid picture of feeling trapped and unseen in a relationship where one's true self is not being acknowledged or valued. The repetition of the lines "Stuck inside, Nothing feels right" emphasizes the sense of suffocation and unease that the singer is experiencing. The juxtaposition of being told "you say you missin’ me" with the realization that the actions and words don't align shows a disconnect in the relationship. The imagery of a rip tide pulling in by lies symbolizes being caught in a cycle of deceit and manipulation.
The chorus "Fade to black, Invisible" reflects the feeling of fading into the background and being rendered invisible in the eyes of the other person. The singer expresses how their needs and emotions are disregarded, and they feel invisible to the one they care about. The lines "You physically see if I can serve you, You’re there in a hurry if I cater to you" highlight the transactional nature of the relationship, where the other person is only present when they benefit from the singer's actions.
The lyrics delve into the theme of self-worth and identity, suggesting that the singer's sense of self is being eroded in the relationship. The reference to "Instant validation and gratification" speaks to the superficial nature of the connection, where genuine understanding and appreciation are lacking. The imagery of "Fade to black, Invisible" recurs throughout the song, underscoring the feeling of disappearing and not being truly seen or heard by the other person.
Overall, "Invisible" delves into the complexities of relationships, highlighting the importance of genuine connection and recognition of one's true self. The lyrics convey a sense of longing for authenticity and depth in a world where perceptions can be shallow and fleeting. The repetition of the chorus and the haunting imagery of fading into darkness underscore the emotional weight of feeling unseen and undervalued in a relationship.
