You're invisible when you're sad

Clocks tick and phones still ring

The world carries on like mad

But nobody sees a thing

Whispering behind their hands

Lost for kind words to say

Nobody understands

And everyone goes away

Grownups wanna' fix things

When they can't it only fills them with shame

So they just look away

Is it being greedy to need somebody to see me

And say my name?

Seems when you lose your mom

No one turns off the sun

Folks carry on, that's that

You're invisible when you're sad
