Music Video
The music video for the song was filmed on location in Los Angeles, California and was directed by Ryan Smith. It shows the band on top of what appears to be a helicopter pad. At the beginning, the individual members of the band are shown, while a flag showing the band's logo, flutters behind them. As the band sings, three teenagers are shown. They are a girl sitting at dinner with her parents when they suddenly start arguing, a boy in a kitchen as his boss starts shouting at him, and a boy sitting in the back seat of a car while his father shouts at him. As the band reaches the "scream your heart out" refrain near the end of the song, the teenagers start to scream suddenly. The girl with the arguing parents shatters every glass on the table as her mother covers her ears, the diner boy blowing plates off the shelf in front of him, and the boy blowing out the car's windows. The band finishes playing, and the view fades out.

Famous quotes containing the words music and/or video:
“His style is eminently colloquial, and no wonder it is strange to meet with in a book. It is not literary or classical; it has not the music of poetry, nor the pomp of philosophy, but the rhythms and cadences of conversation endlessly repeated.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“We attempt to remember our collective American childhood, the way it was, but what we often remember is a combination of real past, pieces reshaped by bitterness and love, and, of course, the video past—the portrayals of family life on such television programs as “Leave it to Beaver” and “Father Knows Best” and all the rest.”
—Richard Louv (20th century)
