Nothing Matters

Back and forth, I have come to this
So listen if you are interested in it
I hope you’re not too busy to miss
This epiphany I just had
And I know it’s not too sexy
That I’m singing about the blessings we get
If we give up ourselves for something good…
It would be bigger than a promotion
Motion, motion, motion…
Because nothing matters
Just tell yourself again and again and again
Nothing matters but what we offer in love
Just today, my boss came to me and said
«No way. No way, we don’t hear money, money, money.»
I got so mad
I walked out the studio and there was a man
Crying and hungry, down and out, yeah, true story, uh huh
And I know it’s not too sexy
That I’m singing about the blessings we get
If we give up ourselves for something good…
It would be bigger than a promotion
So start the motion, start the motion, start the motion
That nothing matters
Just tell yourself again and again and again
Nothing matters
All of our wealth. Again and again and again
Nothing matters, pride will shatter
Our wants will never be enough because nothing matters
So I’ll surrender to you love
And oh, how the war wages on
The battle of my heart
Face to face the truth and what I want
And all that I’ve discovered is…
Nothing matters
Just tell yourself again and again and again
Nothing matters
All of our wealth. Again and again and again
Nothing matters, pride will shatter
Our wants will never be enough
Because nothing matters but love
The things I chase, the status I crave
It’s nothing — it’s nothing
We invest with the banker
But not in the maker
Think about it
And I am the culprit, I am no saint
How long will I stand here obstructing loves way…
