This track off my new album addresses the impotent anger of the keyboard warriors and/or opinionated blowhards we have in our lives.

The Reactivist, by Matt Young
The Reactivist by Matt Young, released 23 August 2024 On the front foot But you're never in the front lines And You hope nobody sees Ready with a word But absent when it's action time Just as scared as you can be If anybody asks what game you're playing Should anybody ever peek inside And get on past the things you're saying They'd see the things you hide Anger is a crutch You're leaning your weight on But it doesn't help you take a stand Speaking double-dutch When you need to say it straight on It's exactly as you planned You've shouted out your dissatisfaction To let everybody know that you're aware The world don't tremble at your reaction It barely knows you're there On the front foot But you're never in the front lines And You hope nobody sees Ready with a word But absent when it's action time Just as scared as you can be You're a little bit like me
