And 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
And this epiphany I just had


And I know it's not too sexy
That I'm singing about the blessings we get
When 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

And just today my boss came in

And said no way, no way
We don't have money money money
I got so mad, walked out the studio

And there was a man quiet and hungry
Down and out
True story, yeah uh-huh


And I know it's not too sexy
That I'm singing about the blessing we get

When we give up ourselves for something good
It would be bigger than a promotion
So 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 words will never be enough

'Cause nothing matters
So I'll surrender to you love


And oh how the war wages on
The battle of my heart
The face, the face of truth is what I want

And all that I've discovered is

Nothing matters

Just tell yourself
Again and again and again
That nothing matters

All of our wealth, again and again and again

Nothing matters

Pride will shatter
Our words will never be enough
'Cause nothing matters

But love

The things I chase

That status I crave
It's nothing, it's nothing
We invest with the bankers, but not in the maker

Think about it, think about it

And I am the culprit,

I am no saint
How long will I stand here
Obstructing love's way?
