[Verse 1]
Wake up, late, same ceiling fan
Phone glow, cracked-screen hologram
Scroll lives, highlight reel parade
Mine stuck on pause, low-grade arcade
Half-finished dreams on the floor
Posters peeling off the door
Headphones on like battle gear
Skip, skip, skip, still stuck right here
[Chorus]
Hit my pixel heart, overdrive
Turn this grayscale day to a sky on fire
I’ve been loading, loading, stuck at ninety-nine
But with you I glitch, then I come alive
Yeah, my pixel heart, overdrive
From the bedroom walls to the blinding lights
If we burn out fast, we still burned in time
Pixel heart, overdrive
[Verse 2]
Missed train, sprint through summer rain
Sneakers soaked, but I love the chase
See you, platform, headphones too
Mouth the words like you wrote my blues
You laugh, say, “You’re always late”
I joke back, “It’s a character trait”
But inside, it’s a boss fight scene
Every breath feels new, unseen
[Chorus]
Hit my pixel heart, overdrive
Turn this grayscale day to a sky on fire
I’ve been loading, loading, stuck at ninety-nine
But with you I glitch, then I come alive
Yeah, my pixel heart, overdrive
From the bedroom walls to the blinding lights
If we burn out fast, we still burned in time
Pixel heart, overdrive
[Bridge]
[Half-time, heavy riff drops]
I was background noise, hidden in the crowd (hey!)
Wore my doubts like armor, way too loud
Then you crashed my code, tore a hole right through
Now every loud, lost, off-key part
Screams your name like truth (oh yeah)
[Chorus]
Hit my pixel heart, overdrive
Turn this grayscale day to a sky on fire
I’ve been loading, loading, stuck at ninety-nine
But with you I glitch, then I come alive
Yeah, my pixel heart, overdrive
From the bedroom walls to the blinding lights
If we burn out fast, we still burned in time
Pixel heart, overdrive
