    Lyrics
    Now you see me now you don't
    Don't ask me where I'm at
    Cause I'm a million miles away
    Treated like a forbidden heel
    Don't say my thoughts are not for real
    Or you won't see me again

    Am I here or am I there
    Or am I playing on the stairs
    Am I in my room with my toys
    I am the disappearing boy

    When I walk in crowded rooms
    I feel as if it is my doom
    I know that I don't belong
    In that room I see her
    I see her and she's with him
    I turn around and then I'm gone

    Don't call me up 'cause I'm not home
    My whereabouts are now unknown
    I vanished from all your joy
    I am the disappearing boy

    I have my doubts
    Of where I belong
    It's something to think about.

    Don't call me up 'cause I'm not home
    My whereabouts are now unknown
    I vanished from all your joy
    I am the disappearing boy
