yea basically this song just sums up everything that the great transcendentalists thoreau and emerson thought and beleived. its not an "original" idea at all, actually everythingin this song has been said by thoreau before, he wrote a shitload of stuff, too bad no one actually reads most of it, but this does fit perfectly in line with the message of the movie, and fits, and does describe the materialistic nature of society, because basically who you are isnt determined by what u possess, but instead by ur character. also i find it interesting that in the movie/book hes always quoting leo tolstoy and other great thinkers of the time, its pretty cool, makes u think and feel like hes serving a higher purpose, and changing the world rather than just being a runaway like a 13 yr old linkin park fan who cant deal with his parents so they go and come back in three days. oh and this is an amazing song, i didnt mean to say it sucked cuz the ideas were already there, no, its a great song and a great line of thinking there, there rly are no original ideas if u want to be technical about it cuz one idea is influenced by the one before it etc.. so that isnt a bad thing at all
