Don't stand around
So far, it's empty
Just pull close these witnesses
That follow, so trusting
There they go
By the way
We last because we're colorful
And as for fools, just play the opposite
Cause quietly, you're overrated anyhow
And currently, you spread yourself so thin
Climb up your pedestal
To hang yourself from it
A cold day without the praise
I used when I never ever meant to change
By the way
We last because we're colorful
And as for fools, just play the opposite
Cause quietly, you're overrated anyhow
And currently, you spread yourself so thin
Spread yourself so thin
His straight jacket fashion
Can't believe he could
But I cry denial
To say that it should
This straight jacket fashion
I can't believe he could
Stab myself just the same
You know that you should
By the way
We last because we're colorful
And as for fools, just play the opposite
Quietly, you're overrated anyhow
Currently, you've spread yourself so thin
Quietly, you're overrated anyhow
And currently, you spread yourself so thin
Spread yourself so thin
Spread yourself so thin
Spread yourself so thin
So far, it's empty
Just pull close these witnesses
That follow, so trusting
There they go
By the way
We last because we're colorful
And as for fools, just play the opposite
Cause quietly, you're overrated anyhow
And currently, you spread yourself so thin
Climb up your pedestal
To hang yourself from it
A cold day without the praise
I used when I never ever meant to change
By the way
We last because we're colorful
And as for fools, just play the opposite
Cause quietly, you're overrated anyhow
And currently, you spread yourself so thin
Spread yourself so thin
His straight jacket fashion
Can't believe he could
But I cry denial
To say that it should
This straight jacket fashion
I can't believe he could
Stab myself just the same
You know that you should
By the way
We last because we're colorful
And as for fools, just play the opposite
Quietly, you're overrated anyhow
Currently, you've spread yourself so thin
Quietly, you're overrated anyhow
And currently, you spread yourself so thin
Spread yourself so thin
Spread yourself so thin
Spread yourself so thin

"quietly your over rated any how" -- how over rated other music and how they are funneled to have people like them. it kinda goes with trexaur's thought.
along with
"By the way we last because were colorful" -- they are still in the business because they are different and they are not in the "straight jacket fashion".
At first I thought this was about crazy people or something. Whenever I listened to it I thought of Hannibal
but I looked into the lyrics more.
I believe it is about religion and how people may rely on it too much or let it ruin they're real lives and turn them into Jesusfreaks. It's pretty much exactly my view of religion. It's a waste of time, no offense to those who disagree
and in the title, straight jacket may refer to how religion is only putting restrictions on your life
