Prompt / Lyrics
[Verse 1] Saturday sun on the driveway Plastic sword Cardboard crown Bike tires carving the pavement Whole damn kingdom in this town Cereal bowls and old reruns Heroes colored on the screen Pause it right before the credits So they never had to leave [Chorus] Back when we stayed out ’Til the streetlights flicked on Saving worlds in the backyard Till the daylight was gone 8‑bit dreams and action figures On the bedroom floor Back when we stayed out I swear it meant more [Verse 2] Rain hit glass We hit start Blowing dust from every game Three lives left Two controllers Passing levels Passing days Posters peeling off the drywall Taped-up corners hanging low Every scratch on every console Was a story we both wrote [Chorus] [Bridge] Now it’s blue light on my face Endless scroll Empty space I’d trade all these flawless frames For one more glitchy race Meet me where the sidewalk ends Kickball Cut knees Summer sweat If growing up means logging in Then leave me with the cassette [Chorus]
Tags
rock, Modern rock band groove with chiming overdriven guitars and a tight, punchy rhythm section. Verses sit in a nostalgic mid-tempo pocket with palm-muted riffs and melodic bass movement; chorus explodes with wide open power chords, gang vocals, and a soaring lead line. Short guitar hook between sections, drums push the last chorus with extra crashes and tom fills, leaving room for a raw, slightly raspy male vocal out front.
