This is probably a stretch since Reb seems to pretty much always have peace of mind... but to me personally "People say it just doesn't matter" is to me just becoming part of the whole system of Babylon and giving in to little things like consuming another disposable item here, accepting a gift of something you dont need here. People say these things dont matter but Reb is trying to resist Babylon. He says "I can't escape" but then finds hope and says, "I've got a plan, we should live it". Like he can find a lifestyle he's still okay with. He fantasizes, "far far away", "rules of our own", not the rules of the system. The system has brought them apart in different ways because they both have to live "lie after lie" when "trying to find a peace of mind". He's saying "You and me both are the same / Try to be strong baby come on now, come on" ... The lyrics in the rest of the song fit, ow stress builds up and makes you wanna say youve had enough, but then creating one's own happiness in simplicity and authenticity. Peace ! |
