Last generation
Reckoning of a Clockwork Generation: Last Generation by Nothing To Care
Lyrics
Self sacrifice for their delight
Engaging in self-sacrifice to please others.
In every word i say
Every word uttered carries significance.
Still so depressed that i can't stand
Experiencing persistent sadness to the point of intolerance.
To be outside
Aversion to being outdoors, possibly due to emotional struggles.
I have become a clockwork bomb
Metaphorical transformation into a ticking time bomb.
I'm counting down
Counting down to an unspecified event or outcome.
What have I done? i'm still alone
Reflecting on actions with a sense of isolation and regret.
Shattered dreams in broken homes
Mention of shattered dreams within fractured family environments.
In broken homes
Reiteration of the brokenness within homes.
That's how we live that's how we'll die
Describing a harsh reality of living and dying in pain.
Buried in pain burning alive
Symbolic imagery of being buried in pain and burning alive.
We are the fucked up generation
Identifying with a generation marked by dysfunction and challenges.
We'll be the last generation
Expressing the belief that the current generation will be the last.
They want us to stay strong
External pressure to remain resilient and endure difficulties.
What am I supposed to fight for?
Questioning the purpose and reason for engaging in a fight or struggle.
They want us to move on
External expectation to move forward despite challenges.
What am I supposed to fight for?
Questioning the motivation for continuing the fight or struggle.
That's how we live that's how we'll die
Reiteration of the harsh reality of living and dying in pain.
Buried in pain burning alive
Repeating the imagery of being buried in pain and burning alive.
We are the fucked up generation
Reaffirming the identification with a generation marked by dysfunction.
We'll be the last generation
Reiterating the belief that the current generation will be the last.
