Patrick Scott Barry - Illusion Of Choice

Go on tell em how I'm treating you
Go on tell em what I'm puttin' you through
Traveling downtown walking all around in your new gowns
Anyone else'd leave you straight panhandling
Good fortune that I came around with my
Fortunes abound, all the goods I adorn
So pour a glass and drink it down
Only got a million odd bottles to choose from
See it all around
You know it's there
The illusion of choice
Go on tell em how much I allow you to say
Go on tell em how much I allow you to spend
Jilted lovers world round would kill to wear your kicks
Guess I might've spoiled you rotten
Or maybe you've just simply forgotten
The world of yesterday, choices beige and gray
I breathed some color into your world
Now all I'm seeing is dissent unfurl
Options all around
It's all you know
The illusion of choice
Shove it down your throat til they
Can't hear your voice
Hey why you goin on and reading that stuff
Isn't what I throw on the TV enough?
Wearing me down with these new found
Adjectives and nouns
You say your friends will feed your mind
Well who will feed your heart in kind?
Serving up your wildest dreams?
Shaping who you are, it seems?
Feel it all around
So hold it close
The illusion of choice
Shove it down your throat til they
Can't hear your voice
