We’re Generation lied to Absorbing fake news We don’t trust a soul So rare is the truth We’re Generation pollution Pretending we don’t care No one will be laughing When we’re gasping for clean air We’re Generation priced out Forever burdened by debt They don’t care you’re hungry and freezing The taxman has come to collect We’re Generation depressed My mood swings like a rope dangled from a tree I keep picturing a silhouette sway lifeless from a noose on the end I can’t help but imagine it’s me We’re Generation false hope Promised it all How highly you built us How fast did we fall?
