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
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 Explain Request ×
