[Verse 1]
Life rolled snake eyes on a Tuesday night
Now I’m one step back from the finish line
Monopoly man got his hand in my chest
Taxed my soul while I’m paying rent
Candy Land roads look sweet from afar
Till you lose yourself chasing paper cards
Sorry! keeps showing up at my door
Like fate keeps screaming, “You lose once more”
And every move feels rigged somehow
Chess kings fall when the clock runs out
I built my dreams like Jenga towers
Now they shake in the final hour
[Pre-Chorus]
I’m all in, all out
One bad card and it all burns down
Spin the wheel, hear the crowd
Pray this turn comes back around
[Chorus]
We’re living in a board game fantasy
Running from reality
Life’s a gamble, choose your strategy
But the house still wins eventually
Risk maps spread across my bedroom floor
Battles I can’t win anymore
Uno cards and broken hearts
Guess we all just play our parts
So roll the dice, let chaos begin
Maybe winnings not everything
Maybe we’re just plastic kings
In somebody else’s game
[Verse 2]
Clue said the villain was in the hall
But he was in the mirror after all
Battleship sank in my chest again
Now I hide the scars beneath my grin
Connect Four with my empty thoughts
Trying to line up all I’m not
Operation hands start shaking bad
Every buzz reminds me what I lack
Trouble pops in every room I’m in
Guess paranoia will always win
And the Game of Life keeps speeding by
While I’m stuck wondering who am I
[Pre-Chorus]
I’m all in, all out
Every high comes crashing down
Jumping like checkers, black or red
Hope survives what fear has said
[Chorus]
We’re living in a board game fantasy
Trading truth for vanity
Ticket to Ride to nowhere new
Searching for skies a brighter blue
Risk maps spread across my bedroom floor
Fighting wars I can’t ignore
Uno cards and fractured dreams
Nothing’s ever what it seems
So roll the dice, let chaos begin
Maybe breaking changes things
Maybe we’re just capturing pieces
Still pretending we’re the kings
[Bridge]
And maybe I was never meant
To beat the game they call success
Maybe hearts aren’t meant for winning
Maybe healing still counts as progress
Checkmate doesn’t scare me now
I survived every failing round
And even if I never win
I’m still here to play again
[Final Chorus]
We’re living in a board game fantasy
Learning pain and gravity
Every loss rewrites the strategy
Maybe that’s humanity
Life’s a table flipped too hard
Life lost games spread across the yard
But through every shattered part
I still protect this beating heart
So roll the dice one final time
Let the broken pieces shine
Maybe we were never losing
Just playing to stay alive
