Blind To Me
By Mystic Compilations
[INTRO]
Lah..., lah..., lah..., ah..., ah...,
I see you pass me by with not even a glance,
With your friends on either side there was no chance.
Walking by stroking your hair with a face so delightful,
Happy and joyous with plenty of life was very insightful.
From a distance I watched her to find who's inside,
Was she a façade or genuine, so someday we might collide.
[VERSE]
As months passed by her personality began to develop,
I watched her hold everyone's attention and not one interrupt.
We attended the same meeting and sat on the same board,
She spoke with elegance and confidence—it was a welcome sight for everyone onboard.
Beauty and brains are a priceless gain and yet we spoke only at the meeting,
I am still far away from her thoughts not even a place on the ceiling.
[PER-CHORUS]
A fleeting thought never extended,
A fleeting moment never attained,
Gave rise to my fall as intended,
She saw me only as an acquaintance,
But I never considered myself high maintenance.
Am I displacement?
Or just an arrangement…,
Am I displacement?
Am I displacement?
Hmmm…, ow-yeah…,
[CHORUS]
While I looked to be a friend never a stranger,
I feel her pull away, a step closer to danger.
I never wanted to be left behind,
Like a tape recorder on the same song—sitting on rewind.
Leaving me frustrated with my own situation,
Which is an unacceptable and unnecessary outcome,
That left me feeling inadequate and unwelcome.
I wanted to change this arrangement,
To be closer to an engagement.
[BRIDGE]
Why can’t she see me?
This cloak of invisibility is choking me—I’m on my knees, can’t you see.
You may look at me as a pillar standing upright,
But inside I feel like I am cornered with blinders on and no insight.
How could I overcome being invisible?
Waiting for her to see me as permissible.
I was reaching for the stars but eventually got as far as Mars.
[PER-CHORUS]
A fleeting thought never extended,
A fleeting moment never attained,
Gave rise to my fall as intended,
She saw me only as an acquaintance,
But I never considered myself high maintenance.
Am I displacement?
Or just an arrangement…,
Am I displacement?
Am I displacement?
Hmmm…, ow-yeah…,
[OUTRO]
All I am getting is so long.
Where did I go wrong, how can I get her to sing my song?
Am I just a grain of sand or a hologram,
Open your eyes and see me as I am.
I am not an invisible man…,
See me as I am…,
See me as I am…,
See me as I am….
