Lyrics

I wanna be your invisible man
Shadow on the wall and an open hand
No one sees and no one dares
'Cause I'm all worked up but I just don't care

And I never wanna see the sunset and rise
'Cause it's all we got when we spent all night
And tripping over tombstones they rehearse
With a little black box sitting right in the hearse

I wanna disappear far from this place
With nothing but a suitcase and your face
I said I wanna disappear but I can wait
Until I can make a living
Digging my grave

Would you like to live in a fairy tale?
Except the ending happens to no avail
Don't you feel like you're being eaten alive?
With the time and the money you earn being lost to the tide

Tripping over tombstones they rehearse
With a little black box sitting right in the hearse and said
"Nothing to see here," the coroner cries
"Without a body to bury, the boy might still be alive"

I wanna disappear far from this place
With nothing but a suitcase and your face
I said I wanna disappear but I can wait
Until I can make a living
Digging my grave
Grave

I wanna be your invisible man
Shadow on the wall and an open hand

Tripping over tombstones they rehearse
With a little black box sitting right in the hearse and said
"Nothing to see here," the coroner cries
"Without a body to bury, the boy might still be alive"

I wanna disappear far from this place
With nothing but a suitcase and your face
I said I wanna disappear but I can wait
Until I can make a living
Digging my grave
Grave
