Aloof to most trivial non-sense
I guess I blame wanting inner peace rather than be up a few cents.

A lot of the time I feel like I’m above all the non-sense
But find myself getting triggered for the sake of making sense.

I wish I could go in and not care about the non-sense
But they’ve brought my silence by offering a few more cents.

Why don’t you quit, won’t that make more sense?
I’ve got bills to pay so I shall continue to trade balance at my peace expense.

I can’t put a lid on feelings that I should know better
Than be silenced so I can keep my head above water in order to cash pay cheques.
