Hey You
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Hey you
Don't you give up
It's not so bad
There's still a chance for us
Hey you
Just be yourself
Don't be so shy
There's reasons why it's hard
Keep it together
You'll make it all right
Our celebration is going on tonight
Poets and prophets would envy what we do
This could be good
Hey you
Hey you
Open your heart
It's not so strange
You've got to change
this time
Hey you
Remember this
None of it's real
Including the way you feel
Keep it together
We'll make it all right
Our celebration is going on tonight
Poets and prophets would envy what we do
This could be good
Hey you
Save your soul, little sister
Save your soul, little brother
Hey you
Save yourself
Don't rely on anyone else
First love yourself
Then you can love someone else
If you can change someone else
Then you have saved someone else
But you must first love yourself
Then you can love someone else
If you can change someone else
Then you have saved someone else
But you must first...
Hey you
There on the fence
You've got a choice
One day it will make sense
Hey you
First love yourself
Or if you can't
Try to love someone else
Keep it together
We'll make it all right
Our celebration is going on tonight
Poets and prophets would envy what we do
This could be good
Hey you
First love yourself
Then you can love someone else
If you can change someone else
Then you have saved someone else
But you must first love yourself
Then you can love someone else
If you can change someone else
Then you have saved someone else
But you must first...
