Robin Pecknold - Be Yourself Lyrics

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 (why don't you be yourself?)
Be yourself (why don't you be?)

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

So don't theorize
Look in their eyes
Are they telling lies
The ones that you see on TV

What a way to be free

Be yourself (why don't you be yourself?)
Be yourself (why don't you be yourself?)
Be yourself (why don't you be yourself?)
Be yourself (why don't you be yourself?)
