Prologue: Invisible

Daylight come and we wan' go- In times like these, we have no words We have only each other Today we come together to mourn the passing of Emily Deetz Devoted wife of Charles, beloved mother to Lydia Scripture tells us, "Sorrow not, for we do not walk alone" 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 Grown-ups 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 Holy crap, a ballad already? And such a bold departure from the original source material
