Radioactive
Imagine Dragons ft. Wiz Khalifa Lyrics

Whoa, oh, oh Whoa, oh, oh Whoa, oh, oh Whoa
The singer is expressing an intense feeling of shock and awe as they face the reality of the world they live in.

I'm waking up to ash and dust I wipe my brow and I sweat my rust I'm breathing in the chemicals
The singer is waking up in a world that has been destroyed by war and pollution. They are struggling to survive and trying to find a way to cope with the harsh conditions.

I'm breaking in, shaping up, then checking out on the prison bus This is it, the apocalypse Whoa
The singer is rebelling against the oppressive system they live under, trying to change it from within, and is coming to terms with the fact that they live in a world that is very close to collapse.

I'm waking up, I feel it in my bones Enough to make my systems blow Welcome to the new age, to the new age Welcome to the new age, to the new age Whoa, oh, oh, oh, oh, whoa, oh, oh, oh, I'm radioactive, radioactive Whoa, oh, oh, oh, oh, whoa, oh, oh, oh, I'm radioactive, radioactive
The singer is feeling the weight of the issues in the world they live in on a physical level, and is welcoming the change that they believe is necessary to move on.

I raise my flags, don my clothes It's a revolution, I suppose We'll paint it red to fit right in Whoa
The singer is uniting with others to fight a common cause and using the symbolism of their revolution to make their presence known.

All systems go, the sun hasn't died Deep in my bones, straight from inside
The singer is fully committed to this change and is feeling it on a deeper level than just the physical symptoms they've been feeling.
