Analysis of Did Someone Steal Your Soul?



You walk around with that big frown,
Though sometimes you will stare
At nothing at all, well maybe the wall.
So please be very aware

Unhappiness caused by duress
Will slowly get worse and worse,
Unless you begin to let others in
Before your fears are immersed.

Please see a friend.  It's not the end,
Or find a relative.
Please let them all share how much they do care
And will as long as you live!
