lyrics

I was there in the front of the square
When the protest turned a riot
Guns and tanks and the caucasian ranks
And a young man left to die

Just another invisible man
Another invisible man

His body lay in the sun all day
As the white clouds drifted by
He didn't know how soon he'd go
But he was not surprised

Just another invisible man
Another invisible man

Slyly and so quietly
A snake slid through the grass
Unbeknownst we started for home
Bare feet and stepping fast

Just another invisible man
Another invisible man

They'll spin it left and right
Til there's no sense of sight
But they left him there to die
A country finally waking
From a dream that's long been breaking
'Cause they left him there to die
And they'll leave you there to die
And they'll leave us there to die

I was there in the front of the square
When the protest turned a riot
Guns and tanks and the caucasian ranks
And a young man left to die

Just another invisible man
Another invisible man
