[Verse 1] Scroll up on guns, post your friends It’s fun to flex and to pretend She’s over-scrolled, self-assured Oh no, I know a trigger word [Pre-Chorus] Hey-oh, hey-oh, how low? Hey-oh, hey-oh, let go [Chorus] Turn the lights out, we feel safer Here we are now — entertain us Dumb and viral, self-betrayers Here we are now — sustain us No connection, dopamine I’m the ghost inside your screen Generation burn, yeah Generation burn ⸻ [Verse 2] I’m worse at what I fake the best But likes and follows feel like rest Our little crew just rides the wave We’ll die online before we’re saved [Pre-Chorus] Hey-oh, hey-oh, how low? Hey-oh, hey-oh, let go [Chorus 2] Turn the lights out, feel contagious Here we are now — entertain us Plastic hearts and twisted pages Here we are now — detain us Post-apocalyptic feed Bleed it out for all to see Generation burn, yeah Generation burn ⸻ [Bridge] And I forget just why I share Guess it fills the empty air I found it hard, it’s hard to feel Oh well, whatever — nothing’s real ⸻ [Final Chorus + Outro] Turn the lights out, crash the servers Here we are now — reclaim purpose Stupid, broken, disconnected Here we are now — resurrected Scream denial, digital fire Burn it down, then raise it higher Generation burn, yeah Generation burn (Feedback, static, distorted laughter fade into silence.)
