Simple words might influence your view

But I can save your life if you allow me to

Remember the time right before you became

Something too despicable to even name

I can relate I went through that stage too

And I hope you're still around when you're 22

Nothing really matters but yourself

Simple words might often miss the point

But here's two words you better not ignore

Do you really believe that any man is an island

Will if you do then you're about to be stranded man

Nothing really matters

But yourself

Nothing really matters but yourself

Give another person just half a chance

To express himself

It's easy to believe

Believe in something other than yourself

Believe in something other than yourself

You wrote a letter I)

But I knew better you)

You can clearly see)

Just what the effect is

Will you ever be)

Be together oh)

Enough to tell me why)

Why does this have to happen to anyone

Nothing really matters but yourself

Nothing really matters but yourself

Give another person just half a chance

To express himself

It's easy to believe

Simple words are often misconstrued

But occasionally somebody's advice is worth listening to

I've stated my case now I'll return to my place

But there will come a day when black marks won't erase

Nothing really matters but yourself

Nothing really matters but yourself

Give another person just half a chance

To express himself

It's easy to believe

Believe in something other than yourself

Believe in something other than yourself

Believe in something other than yourself

Believe in something other than yourself

Believe in something other than yourself

Believe in something other than yourself
