There comes a time when you swim or sink | |
So I jumped in the drink | |
Cuz I couldn't make myself clear | |
Maybe I wrote in invisible ink | |
Oh I've tried to think | |
How I could have made it appear | |
But another illustration is wasted | |
Cuz the results are the same | |
I feel like a ghost who's trying to move your hands | |
over some ouija board in the hopes I can spell out my name | |
What some take for magic at first glance | |
Is just sleight of hand depending on what you believe | |
Something gets lost when you translate | |
It's hard to keep straight | |
Perspective is everything | |
And I know now which is which and what angle I oughta look at it from | |
I suppose I should be happy to be misread- | |
Better be that than some of the other things I have become | |
Invisible Ink | |
But nobody wants to hear this tale | |
The plot is clichéd, the jokes are stale | |
And baby we've all heard it all before | |
Oh I could get specific but | |
Nobody needs a catalog | |
With details of love I can't sell anymore | |
And aside from that, this chain of reaction, | |
baby, is losing a link | |
Though I'd hope you'd know what I tried to tell you | |
And if you don't I could draw you a picture in invisible ink | |
But nobody wants to hear this tale | |
The plot is clichéd, the jokes are stale | |
And baby we've all heard it all before | |
Oh I could get specific but | |
Nobody needs a catalog | |
With details of love I can't sell anymore |
There comes a time when you swim or sink | |
So I jumped in the drink | |
Cuz I couldn' t make myself clear | |
Maybe I wrote in invisible ink | |
Oh I' ve tried to think | |
How I could have made it appear | |
But another illustration is wasted | |
Cuz the results are the same | |
I feel like a ghost who' s trying to move your hands | |
