Peace Of Mind

"Peace Of Mind" is a single by Boston from their 1976 self-titled album. This song was written about Tom Scholz, whom before getting a record contract, worked at the Polaroid Corporation, who served no interest into "climbing the company ladder" to company management.

The single version, along with being shorter, features slightly different vocals from Brad Delp.

Lyrics
Now if you're feelin' kinda low 'bout the dues you've been paying Future's coming much too slow And you want to run but somehow you just keep on stayin' Can't decide on which way to go Yeah, yeah, yeah

I understand about indecision But I don't care if I get behind People livin' in competition All I want is to have my peace of mind, yeah, whoa

Now you're climbin' to the top of the company ladder Hope it doesn't take too long Can'tcha you see there'll come a day when it won't matter? Come a day when you'll be gone, whoa

I understand about indecision But I don't care if I get behind People livin' in competition All I want is to have my peace of mind

Take a look ahead, take a look ahead, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Now everybody's got advice they just keep on givin' Doesn't mean too much to me Lots of people out to make-believe they're livin' Can't decide who they should be, whoa

I understand about indecision But I don't care if I get behind People livin' in competition All I want is to have my peace of mind

Take a look ahead, take a look ahead, look ahead
