lyrics

How are you feeling?
I suppose it's the way I am
I'm sorry I made it
I suppose you could make it yourself
On your own
I know you can
We all live and grow
Like the river over the stone

So how you feel now?
Does life wash over you?
Or do you feel dead?
If so, act like the stone

Free yourself
Be yourself
Be yourself
Free your Self

So how do you feel alone?
I can't tell where the comfort of it all went
Are you a ghost?
I can't find a friend

On you own
I know you can
We all live and grow
Like the river over the stone
Like the river over the stone
Be like the stone in the river
Like the river over the stone
