Description
The song's title has been "officially" leaked on March 14th, 2022 via the JSON output from wontstanddown.muse.mu, which contains basic album info.
In Warner's album recap, Euphoria is described as a "lighting bolt rush" of a song.[3] On Aleks Von Korff's Instagram story, when "describing" songs through hand emojis, he used the "devil horns" emoji for this song, hinting that Euphoria is another rock-oriented track.[4] As described by Riff Magazine, "“Euphoria” grows from a dance-rock tune into a fist-pumping classic rock chorus".[5] Gigwise compared Euphoria to songs like Bliss, Knights of Cydonia and Time Is Running Out.[6]
The pre-choruses of Euphoria follow the exact same note progression as pre-choruses in Time Is Running Out. The song itself is also very similar in structure and pace to Crying Shame, with a fast dance-rock beat. The choruses most resemble those of Revolt and Get Up and Fight, having a pop punk tinge. The guitar sound in the verses is comparable to the one in songs like Blockades and Knights of Cydonia.

Lyrics
Shut down
We are growing spiritless If no one cares, then who is gonna save us? Give us euphoria
Worn out Everything will fall apart So shine a light and warm up this heavy heart Give us euphoria
Brooding I need renewing I want satisfaction A gut reaction
Give us euphoria Give us euphoria It's been all work and no play Give us euphoria Give us euphoria I need to numb all the pain
Wake up We're becoming restless Our last hope and only you can save us Give us euphoria Sealed off to numb all the pain We are running out of air So start a fire and spice up this love affair Give us euphoria
Brooding I need renewing I need satisfaction A gut reaction
Give us euphoria Give us euphoria It's been all work and no play Give us euphoria Give us euphoria I need to numb all the pain
Euphoria Give us euphoria It's been all work and no play Give me euphoria I need euphoria
I need to numb all the pain...
