Hank Green
Scream Into the Void
[Verse 1]
Well, I just can't stop thinkin' of this dirty little thing
It's clingin' to my mind, it's lingering:
That the fight I'm fightin's right, but maybe not the way I fight
Is it possible my every move is controlled to keep me hooked?
To keep me feeling righteous while my brain is FaceBooked?
Well, someone's making billions while we tear ourselves apart
The lies are spreading faster and I don't know where to start

[Chorus 1]
So scream into the void with me, yeah
Oh scream into the void, do it with me
Tell everyone that isn't you that they're your enemy
Every person's got a different story that they sell themselves
And if yours isn't like mine, then, well go to hell
And scream into the void with me

[Verse 2]
Well I'm not saying that I'm wrong, I'm obviously right
But when I see the world that way, everything's a fight
Well, maybe it's time to rage against the rage machine
But, well, I don't want to look at that, so I go back to the trough
To gorge on some more things they said that really pissed me off
I'm an aardvark with a gun, a slave to dopamine
Drive that wedge deeper, it's two-thousand-seventeen
[Chorus 2]
And scream into the void, oh scream into the void
Scream into the void with me, yeah
Oh scream into the void, do it with me
Convince yourself you're powerless, act with impunity
Your ideas are made of gold, and you've never been wrong
And you're absolutely sure you're not the person in this song
So scream into the void, scream into the void
Scream into the void with me

[Bridge]
'Cause if we can get mad enough, I'm sure that we can win
Find another world, dig the trenches in
If it feels like everyone else has diseased and rotten brains
Ask yourself whose empire is fattened by this rage
And scream into the void with me
