They call us the last generation
That we're bad to the bone
They feed us illusions of grandeur
What we do is all wrong
They give us the weight of the whole world
I don't understand
We all have the power to change this
To make our last stand
Join the revolution (hey)
We will hold back the night this time
Tear down the illusion (hey)
We will hold back the night this time
They say that we lack dedication
That we don't give a damn
How long can we hide our frustration?
To fit in their plans
But how can we rise from suppression
Life spent on our knees
It's time to unite, now or never
To build a new dream
Join the revolution (hey)
We will hold back the night this time
Tear down the illusion (hey)
We will hold back the night this time
Together we'll bring back the light
The wonders that once filled the world
We'll never give up
We'll never give in
Together we'll win
