The song "Invisible Man" by Jesse Powell is about feeling unnoticed and unrecognized in a relationship. The lyrics convey a sense of longing and confusion, as the speaker wonders if their love is still reciprocated. In the first verse, the speaker expresses their surprise that their love seems to have faded away, even though they are standing right in front of their partner. They question if their reflection in their partner's eyes would show the love they still need, or if they would even recognize themselves. In the chorus, the speaker describes themselves as an invisible man, someone their partner doesn't even see or acknowledge. They express their frustration with this situation, feeling like they have disappeared and don't matter to their partner. The second verse shows the irony of how their partner only seems to notice them when they are needed. The speaker feels like they magically appear when their partner requires something from them, but they question the authenticity of this love. They wonder if they are simply here in vain, without a genuine connection. The chorus is repeated again, emphasizing the feeling of being invisible, while also expressing a longing for love. The speaker questions if their love is real and if they should stay in the relationship, despite feeling neglected. The final lines of the song suggest that even though seasons may change and outward appearances may alter, true feelings remain. The speaker maintains their presence and waits for their partner to truly recognize and love them. Overall, "Invisible Man" portrays a story of feeling unnoticed and unappreciated in a relationship, and the internal struggle of whether to persevere or let go.
