Uninvited Lyrics

Cover art for Uninvited lyrics by Linda Perry

This is a song about aspiring to greatness and not having your significant other share that vision. What's great about this song, is the guilt the singer feels about these aspirations. ("I'm feeling somethings wrong with me") She's also feeling some trepidation about how dramatically her life will change will change once she achieves her goal - and that may include the loss of the doubting significant other. It's easy to misinterpret this song about Jesus since she mentions Him, but Jesus is just a metaphor for that big thing she's trying to accomplish. ("Can you believe, everything that I'm saying? I don't know what you see in me")<-- is a great line about compatibility in vision: I want to do this great thing, but you don't see the value in that - so why are we together again?
