This generation is a patchwork of
Emotions and indie rock bands and
Ripped jeans and cliches
That can tell you about
The moon (and your zodiac sign!) and teach you how to dance
(Classic or Freestyle)
That can feed you 2 bottles of Advil
And hold you while you choke,
(But we'll tie back your hair)
That can
Teach you that we aren't made of
cigarettes and sadness, but
memories
And drinking lemonade
That's too bitter (because we don't really know how to make it)
But drinking the whole pitcher anyway
(We don't let our hard work go to waste)
We are the generation with articles about
Why we are killing the napkin industry
Written about us
(And we love it)
Because fuck napkins, right?
(We don't know why we killed napkins...)
But fuck it
We are the generation that says
Fuck it
Because we can
(Sometimes)
