The Nature Of Virtue Lyrics - The The

Don't change yourself to suit everybody else 

Don't change yourself to suit everybody else 

You lay staring at your ceiling through all of the night 

And out to haunt you come the ghosts of your life 

You bury your head in a bone colored cradle 

But do you sleep with a smile upon your face? 

They say into every life a little rain must fall 

But your dream cloud has burst 

And dripped all over your face 

A sick body forms a sick mind 

But you're duty bound to do what's right 

Is that the oasis of light in the darkness of your life? 

You can't admit, but you can't deny 

A small heart, a spiteful mind 

Are you good or bad you ask yourself 

And do the things you do hurt the ones who care the most for you 

Are you good or bad you ask yourself 

And do the things you do hurt the ones who care the most for you 

Don't change yourself to suit everybody else 

Don't change yourself to suit everybody else...
