Invisible Man
The Theory of a Deadman Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Haven't seen me lately
Staying hard to find
Well I know it ain't easy
But you know I don't mind

I always know where you are, you never know where I am
You got me sneaking around like the invisible man
You'll never know where I've gone, you've gone and done it again
You've got me sneaking around like the invisible man
Going once, going twice, fuck this I'm gone

You've been looking for days now
Oh but I'm not around
I've been finding new ways how
To see that I'm never found

I always know where you are, you never know where I am
You got me sneaking around like the invisible man
You'll never know where I've gone, you've gone and done it again
You've got me sneaking around like the invisible man
Going once, going twice, fuck this I'm gone

You can see right through me, outta sight, outta mind
Can you see why it's easy to be the hardest to find

I always know where you are, you never know where I am
You got me sneaking around like the invisible man
You'll never know where I've gone, you've gone and done it again
You've got me sneaking around like the invisible
Like the invisible man
Like the invisible man
Like the invisible man
Like the invisible man




Like I'm invisible
Going once, going twice, three times, fuck this I'm gone

Overall Meaning

The Theory of a Deadman's song Invisible Man is about a relationship in which one person is constantly hiding and avoiding the other. The lyrics express the frustration of the person who is always trying to find them, but never knows where they are. The person who is hiding seems to be comfortable with the distance between them and their partner, but the other person is getting tired of it. The term "invisible man" is used to describe the person who is always hiding, as they are hard to find and seem to be invisible.


The lyrics suggest that this relationship is unhealthy and one-sided, with one person always seeking out the other while the other remains distant and uninvolved. Despite this, the person who is hiding seems content to continue the cycle of avoidance, even though it is causing strain on the relationship. The frustration of the other person is clear in the line "Going once, going twice, fuck this I'm gone", indicating that they have had enough and are ready to move on.


Overall, the song Invisible Man explores the theme of distance and avoidance in relationships, highlighting the impact it can have on those involved. The use of the term "invisible man" adds a haunting quality to the lyrics, emphasizing the extent of the distance between the two people.
