Someone falls to pieces, sleeping all alone Someone kills the pain, spinning in the silence She finally drifts away Someone gets excited in a chapel yard, catches a bouquet Another lays a dozen white roses on a grave
Yeah, and to be yourself is all that you can do Hey, to be yourself is all that you can do
Someone finds salvation in everyone, another only pain Someone tries to hide himself, down inside himself he prays Someone swears his true love until the end of time, another runs away Separate or united, healthy or insane
To be yourself is all that you can do (All that you can do), oh To be yourself is all that you can do (All that you can do), oh To be yourself is all that you can do (All that you can do), oh To be yourself is all that you can do
And even when you’ve paid enough Been pulled apart or been held up Every single memory of the good or bad Faces of luck, don’t lose any sleep tonight I’m sure everything will end up alright You may win or lose
But to be yourself is all that you can do, yeah To be yourself is all that you can do, oh
To be yourself is all that you can do (All that you can do), oh To be yourself is all that you can do (All that you can do), oh-yeah To be yourself is all that you can— Be yourself is all that you can— Be yourself is all that you can do
