In my eyes, indisposed
In disguise as no one knows
Hides the face, lies the snake
In the sun in my disgrace
Boiling heat, summer stench
'Neath the black the sky looks dead
Call my name through the cream
And I'll hear you scream again

Black hole sun
Won't you come?
And wash away the rain
Black hole sun
Won't you come?
Won't you come?
Won't you come?

Stuttering, cold and damp
Steal the warm wind tired friend
Times are gone for honest men
And sometimes far too long for snakes
In my shoes, a walking sleep
And my youth I pray to keep
Heaven send Hell away
No one sings like you anymore

Black hole sun
Won't you come?
And wash away the rain
Black hole sun
Won't you come?
Won't you come?

Black hole sun
Won't you come?
And wash away the rain
Black hole sun
Won't you come?
Won't you come?

(Black hole sun, black hole sun)
Won't you come
(Black hole sun, black hole sun)
Won't you come
(Black hole sun, black hole sun)
Won't you come
(Black hole sun, black hole sun)

Hang my head, drown my fear
'Till you all just disappear

Black hole sun
Won't you come?
And wash away the rain
Black hole sun
Won't you come?
Won't you come?

Black hole sun
Won't you come?
And wash away the rain
Black hole sun
Won't you come?
Won't you come?

(Black hole sun, black hole sun)
Won't you come
(Black hole sun, black hole sun)
Won't you come
(Black hole sun, black hole sun)
Won't you come
(Black hole sun, black hole sun)
Won't you come
(Black hole sun, black hole sun)
Won't you come
(Black hole sun, black hole sun)
Won't you come
Won't you come

Someone falls to pieces
Sleeping all alone
Someone kills the pain
Spinning in the silence
She finally drift away
Someone gets excited
In a chapel yard
Catches a bouquet
Another lays a dozen
White roses on a grave


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


Someone finds salvation in everyone
Another only pain
Someone tries to hide themself
Down inside himself he prays
Someone swears their 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 pulled apart
Or been held up
Every single memory of
The good or bad, faces of love
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
To be yourself is 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)
To be yourself is all that you can
Be yourself is all that you can
Be yourself is all that you can do
