He waves his arms
yells and gesticulates
has nothing to say
But that doesnt stop him
He’s mad at the world
And wants to take it down
he is like us
Filled with bad information
He gathers what the rest of us are trying to lose
Everyone wants to live free and clean without fear
The world has gotten mean and is getting meaner
And its tough and its sad its tough and its sad
I can see him shake his fist
And scream at the wind
He doesn’t know what he wants
But he knows its not this

Haha, which came first, the simpson reference, or the song?

Last two lines bring it into sharp focus, like twisting the lens on a camera .... plus, the swell guitar that starts around 50 seconds. Yeah!

This is what I like. Some dark mood with great melody. Yeah. This is almost like The Doors or Joy Divison. Well done!

I don't know why, but when the "He is like us, filled with bad information," it reminds me of Neil Finn. Which is a fantastic thing. Dig the groove here.

Don't I know that feeling! He doesn't know what he wants but he knows it's not THIS!

"He is like us....filled with bad information." Bingo. We have met the enemy, and he is us!

It seems to me that "the world's getting meaner" can be a self-fulfilling prophecy. It's a very accurate character sketch for a sadly familiar kind of person.
