Be Yourself

Chris Cornell

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
and 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

And be yourself is all that you can do
All that you can do
To be yourself is all that you can do
All that you can do
To be yourself is all that you can do
All that you can do
Be yourself is all that you can do

Even when you've paid enough
Been put upon 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 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
To be yourself is all that you can do
All that you can do
To be yourself is all that you can
Be yourself is all that you can
Be yourself is all that you can do
