Be Yourself Lyrics

Be Yourself lyrics

by Graham Nash



How does it feel

When life doesn't seem real

And you're floating about on your own

Your life seems uncertain

So you draw the curtain

Pretending there's nobody home

Don't theorize

Look in your eyes

They can't tell lies

Though you may disguise what you see

The mirror is free

We once had a savior 

But by our behavior 

The one that was worth it is gone

Song birds are talking 

And runners are walking

A prodigal son's coming home

Don't theorize

Look in his eyes

They won't tell lies

But if he defies what you see

He'll give you a key

Be yourself

Be yourself

Be yourself

Be yourself

We needed a tutor

So built a computer

And programmed ourselves not to see

The truth and the lying

The dead and the dying

A silent majority

Don't theorize

Look in their eyes

Are they telling lies

The ones that they learn on T.V.

What a way to be free

Be yourself

Be yourself

Then you can free yourself

Free yourself

See yourself

Then you can see yourself

Come on and see yourself

See yourself
