About the artist

Scott Wilburn is an artist and musician living in Sandpoint Idaho. Born in the fifties, having come of age during the turbulent sixties, and grown to adulthood in the seventies, began recording in the eighties, produced his first CDs in the nineties, and still writing and recording into the new millennium, his song writing reflects a wide variety of influences, with bits of electric blues, piano ballads, acoustic songs, heavy metal riffs, synth pop, and country rock jams all rolled into an improbable mix that defies most attempts at catagorization. A veritable one-man band, Scott writes the music & lyrics and plays most of the instruments on most of his songs, with cameo appearances by his many talented friends. His goal is that "no two songs sound alike".

Invisible
©2010 Scott Wilburn

Walkin' down main street, goin' nowhere
Walkin' down town in the pourin' rain.
Old man sittin' there, holdin' his tin cup
Folks passin' by don't see a thing

Old man, cold man, he just sits there
Face twisted up in lonesome pain
Old man sits there, he don't look up
Folks passin' by don't see a thing

Dark wet street, the cold's unbearable
Cold indifference unexplainable
This old man's become invisible

Walkin' down main street, goin' nowhere
Walkin' down town in the pourin' rain.
Empty park bench, no one sittin' there
Empty tin cup layin' on the ground

Ain't nobody gonna read the last rites
Ain't noone gonna say a prayer

Folks passin' by don't seem to notice
Folks passin' by don't see a thing
Dark wet street, the cold's unbearable
Cold indifference unexplainable
This old man's become invisible
