Overall Meaning

The song, "Invisible," by The Prozacs is a highly relatable expression of the desire to remain hidden and unheard in society. The first two stanzas present key details in the artist's plea: "You can't see me, I don't wanna be seen", and "You can't hear me, I don't wanna be heard". The repetition of "I don't wanna be seen" and "I don't wanna be heard" is an echo of the artist's yearning to disassociate oneself from the attention of the public. This is further amplified by the artist's use of the line, "You can't," which is an affirmative statement stating limitation. By utilizing the two common senses, sight and hearing, the artist portrays a powerful message of wanting to remain entirely anonymous and unexposed.


The repetition of the words "I don't wanna be" and "woh-oh-oh-oh" further amplify the artist's desire to withdraw from society's attention. These lyrics and the overall structure of the song are meant to be a representation of a strong emotion many people feel at some point in their lives; the feeling of wanting to go unnoticed or feeling invisible rather than being the focus of attention. The song encourages listeners to be accepting of others regardless of their differences, suggesting that the lack of attention could be a personal choice rather than exclusion.
