Invisible
Wendy & Lisa Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I made us greater than our time
Why don't you see
The light you had because of me
When you were mine
The sun is gone
I made it disappear
That is unless I'm near
Just like when you were mine
Shine
Shine
Shine
Invisible
I will not be
(I will not appear)
Invisible
I will not be
(Let me make it clear)
I am Victory
You think I'm mercenary
I'm luck not greed
I am extraordinary
Like when you were mine
Shine Shine Shine
Invisible
I will not be
(I will not appear)
Invisible
I will not be
(Let me make it clear)
Invisible
I will not be
What you believe in
Won't set you free
When you're high on power
Shine
All my glitter turns to gold
I own my beauty and my soul
And for a price
I'll make you feel something
Better every time
Like when you were mine
Invisible
I will not be
I will not appear
What you believe in
Won't set you free
When your higher power
Is me
So I'm gonna stand here
Until you see
And shout hallelujah at
My feet
What you believe in
Is what I fear
I've walked in your garden
And tasted your tears
Invisible
The song “Invisible” by Wendy & Lisa is an introspective track about love, power, and control. The lyrics present the singer as a figure who was once in a relationship with someone who has now moved on. The singer clearly still loves the other person, and they believe that they made them who they are today. They reference the past, calling out to the person “when you were mine”. The singer also acknowledges their own power and how they can control the other person, making the sun disappear unless they are around. They express a desire to be seen and not invisible, as if they are determined to keep this former partner from forgetting them. The song speaks to the complexities of relationships where one person may hold all the power, and how that dynamic can change and hurt the one who doesn't have it.
The chorus of the song repeats “invisible, I will not be”, and this feels like a rallying cry. The singer is imploring the other person to see them, to recognize that they are important, to understand the control that they hold. The idea is that once the person understands the power of the singer, the two can be together again like they once were. The song ends on a note of hopeful desperation. The singer is shouting for hallelujah at their feet, hoping that through sheer will they can make the other person see what they see.

Those years were mine
I have memories of those times that belong to me
I made us greater than our time
I elevated our existence beyond what we thought was possible in that era
Why don't you see The light you had because of me
You don't acknowledge the brightness that emanated from within you because of the impact I had on your life
The sun is gone I made it disappear
I removed the sunshine from your life
No lights are on you now That is unless I'm near
There is no radiance around you until I am proximate to you

I refuse to be unnoticed or ignored

I am triumphant, though you wrongly assume I am selfish. I am not motivated by greed - chance has been on my side. I am exceptional, just like I was when I was yours
What you believe in Won't set you free When you're high on power
Your beliefs won't liberate you from the delusion of excessive authority
All my glitter turns to gold I own my beauty and my soul And for a price I'll make you feel something Better every time Like when you were mine
I possess both inner and outer magnificence. I am self-assured in my identity, and I can offer you validation in exchange for a price. The satisfaction I offer is comparable to the time you spent with me
What you believe in Won't set you free When your higher power Is me
Your principles won't be sufficient in liberating you when I am the one controlling you
So I'm gonna stand here Until you see And shout hallelujah at My feet
I'll await your comprehension while I remain unyielding, and when you finally realize you were in the wrong, you'll revere me
I've walked in your garden And tasted your tears
I've witnessed your vulnerability and experienced the pain you've felt
