"Society" by Jerry Hannan, performed by Eddie Vedder (2007)

It's a mistery to me
we have a greed
with which we have agreed

You think you have to want
more than you need
until you have it all you won't be free

society, you're a crazy breed
I hope you're not lonely without me

When you want more than you have
you think you need
and when you think more than you want
your thoughts begin to bleed

I think I need to find a bigger place
'cos when you have more than you think
you need more space

society, you're a crazy breed
I hope you're not lonely without me
society, crazy and deep
I hope you're not lonely without me

there's those thinking more or less less is more
but if less is more how you're keeping score?
Means for every point you make
your level drops
kinda like its starting from the top
you can't do that...

society, you're a crazy breed
I hope you're not lonely without me
society, crazy and deep
I hope you're not lonely without me

society, have mercy on me
I hope you're not angry if I disagree
society, crazy and deep
I hope you're not lonely without me

A song criticism to the passion of consumerism, a passion that characterizes our society. This feeling of incompleteness when we have anything we want and we are not satisfied. It’s a substancial thing of our social values. The song is included in the soundtrack of the 2007 movie “Into the Wild” about the true story of a young boy Christopher McCandless, who disgusted by these social values, left his in trouble family and his bright academic career and went to live alone in the wild, but unfortunately died by the unpredicted forces of nature.

We also read in another song (Far Behind) from this soundtrack
Empty pockets will allow
a greater sense of wealth
a common philosophy about the differences between the terms "I Need" and "I Want"

You can hear this song, performed by Pearl Jam’s frontman Eddie Vedder who wrote the music of this soundtrack, in youtube and Far Behind
