The Same Original Idea Letra

Let's not have false illusions
You're strapped to your chair
The water's rising up
It's tinted red with all our blood
We smile and nod at all the things we've done
Too many people are talking
So i can't hear one
They said i'll give you the choice
Said you can live or die
If you can tell me the difference
Which one's wrong and which one's right
They said step right up, step right up
And when i did....

It was a million and one of the same god damn thing
It was overwhelming, so overwhelming
I's a million and one of the same god damn thing
It's underwhelming so underwhelming

They said i'll give you the choice
Said you can live or you can die
If you can tell me the difference
Which ones wrong and which ones right....

But it was a million and one of the same goddamn thing
It was overwhelming, so overwhelming
It's a million and one of the same goddamn thing
Its underwhelming so underwhelming

When there's a million of the same original idea
It's not original anymore.
When it's a million of the same meaningful idea
Its not so meaningful anymore

We're drowning in images of white picket fences
Despite all of your defenses
You've come to find you were defenseless after all
We're drowning in images of white picket fences
Despite your defenses
You've come to find were defenseless after all.
