when you don t see me it s not a matter of going to grow it s not a matter of time or how i feel i m throwing off the shadow of a better man now what you see is what you never had get real get another i don t exist when you don t see me i don t exist when you re not here what the eye don t see won t break the heart you can make believe when we re apart but when you leave i disappear when you don t see me oh it s kind of different when you re there you can lease the peace of mind you bought a mask i put it on you never thought to ask me if i wear it when you re gone get real get another i don t exist when you don t see me i don t exist when you re not here what the eye don t see won t break the heart you can make believe when we re apart but when you leave i disappear when you don t see me you never learned you bought me everything and less i turned you couldn t let me move i guess i don t deny it don t disprove what you see is what you lost if i were you i wouldn t try get real get another i don t exist when you don t see me i don t exist when you re not here what the eye don t see won t break the heart you can make believe when we re apart but when you leave i disappear when you don t see me
