The lyrics express a longing for peace of mind amidst the noise, choices, and complications of modern life, suggesting that new gadgets and toys amplify chaos rather than simplify things.
Lyrics
CAN’T HEAR MY VOICE
ABOVE ALL THE NOISE
THERE’S TOO MUCH CHOICE
NEW GADGETS AND TOYS
MEANT TO SIMPLIFY
BUT THEY ONLY AMPLIFY
THE LEVEL OF CHAOS AND CONFUSION
PEACE OF MIND
PEACE OF MIND
ALL I WANT IS PEACE OF MIND
TURN IT DOWN
CAN’T HEAR MYSELF THINK
STARTING TO DROWN
STARTING TO SINK
MAKE IT GO AWAY
IT’S ALL WORK, NO PLAY
HOW DID IT ALL BECOME SO COMPLICATED?
PEACE OF MIND
PEACE OF MIND
ALL I WANT IS PEACE OF MIND
WE’VE BEEN CONNED
KNEW I WAS RIGHT ALL ALONG
AND YOU THOUGHT I WAS WRONG, WELL YOU WERE MISTAKEN
PEACE OF MIND
PEACE OF MIND
ALL I WANT IS PEACE OF MIND
