Analysis of You're Made of Stone, Not Water
I'm tired of you,
Treating me as if I'm a child,
Do this,
Do that,
Oh, and don't forget to smile,
When your around others,
Act as if your problems don't exist,
Kiss and hug folks,
As if your not at all pissed,
Hold tears back,
Because you're made of stone not water...
