This poignant track by Duran Duran delves into the experience of feeling unseen and unheard, a sentiment that resonates with many. The lyrics portray the struggle of an individual who feels ignored and forgotten, symbolized as being 'invisible.' They yearn for acknowledgment and validation, pleading for their name to be remembered and spoken. The repeated refrain "Has the memory gone? Are you feeling numb?" suggests a sense of despair at the indifference or forgetfulness of others. Additionally, the song touches on collective invisibility, hinting at societal issues where marginalized groups are often overlooked. In essence, "INVISIBLE" is a powerful commentary on personal and societal alienation.
INVISIBLE
Lyrics
(Invisible)
(Invisible)
(Invisible)
(Invisible)
(Shy one) walking by the wall
(Shy one) the shadows will not fall
(Shy one) is silently ignored
(Quiet one) discouraged by the noise
(Quiet one) living without choice
(Quiet one) is a life without a voice
When you can't even say my name
Has the memory gone? Are you feeling numb?
Go and call my name
I can't play this game, so I ask again
Will you say my name?
Has the memory gone? Are you feeling numb?
Or have I become invisible?
(Skylight) that dreamers wish away
(Hindsight) is falling on my face
(Highlights) the shape of my disgrace
When you don't hear a word I say
As the talking goes, it's a one-way flow
No fault, no blame
Has the memory gone? Are you feeling numb?
And have I become invisible?
(Invisible)
(Invisible)
(Invisible)
(Invisible)
(Invisible)
(Invisible)
(Invisible)
(Invisible)
(Invisible)
And no one hears a word they say
Has the memory gone? Are you feeling numb?
Not a word they say
But a voiceless crowd isn't backing down
When the air turns red
With their loaded hesitation
Can you say my name?
Has the memory gone? Are you feeling numb?
Have we all become invisible?
