Verse 1
We wake up mad before the coffee’s done
Scrolling sins like it’s a loaded gun
Headlines screaming in all caps lock
Rent-free riots in a comment box
Every hot take’s pre-approved and staged
Same old spark, different shade of rage
They sell us fear by the click and share
We buy it back like we’re unaware
Pre-Chorus
Hold your breath, here comes the cue
Tell you what to hate, who to boo
Chorus
Light the match, watch the numbers climb
Another fake fire, right on time
We’re so upset, but we don’t know why
Just point and shout till the echo buys
Raise your voice, fall in line
Manufactured outrage, factory-fine
We’re bleeding views, not peace of mind
Another trending topic heart attack
Verse 2
Enemies picked by an algorithm
Fight your neighbor, never question them
Anger’s cheaper when it’s mass-produced
Wrap it up nice, sell it as truth
Every villain needs a costume change
Recycle faces, rebrand the blame
We’re screaming “think for yourself”
Reading scripts written by someone else
Pre-Chorus
Hands up, eyes glued, don’t blink
Feel first, never stop to think
Chorus
Light the match, watch the numbers climb
Another fake fire, right on time
We’re so upset, but we don’t know why
Just point and shout till the echo buys
Raise your voice, fall in line
Manufactured outrage, factory-fine
We’re bleeding views, not peace of mind
Another trending topic heart attack
Bridge
If anger’s power, we’re overloaded
Short-circuited, easily molded
They pull the strings, we bite the bait
Call it justice, call it fate
Say it louder, make it hurt
Truth gets lost in who’s the worst
We’re all headline-shaped bruises now
Waiting to be told how to feel somehow
Breakdown
Refresh, reload
Who do we hate?
Refresh, reload
It’s getting late
Final Chorus
Strike the match, let it burn
Same old lesson we never learn
We’re choking on a borrowed cry
Selling our calm for a battle cry
Hands up high, toe the line
Manufactured outrage, factory-fine
We’re losing sleep, losing time
Another trending topic heart attack
Outro
When the noise fades, what’s left behind?
Just tired throats and divided minds
