Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Thumb on the plastic
We used to sync so fast
Every late night session
Every shared screen laugh
Now you stall on loading
I’m running off the map
We’re in the same main menu
Different quests
Different paths
[Chorus]
Controller drift
We’re sliding off in different directions
You lean left
I’m pinned to the right
Losing connection
Can’t stay centered
When everything keeps pulling like this
We were locked in
Now we’re just fighting
Controller drift
[Verse 2]
Snacks on the carpet
Empty cans by the door
We used to talk in shortcuts
Now we don’t talk much anymore
You’re chasing new achievements
I’m stuck on our old save
Still holding to the memory
Of what we almost stayed
[Pre-Chorus]
Tell me
When did it get hard to steer
We’re in the same room
But you’re not really here (hey)
[Chorus]
Controller drift
We’re sliding off in different directions
You lean left
I’m pinned to the right
Losing connection
Can’t stay centered
When everything keeps pulling like this
We were locked in
Now we’re just fighting
Controller drift
[Bridge]
Maybe we just wore down all the edges
Pushed too hard on every single day
Tried to tap back to the way it started
But the cursor keeps slipping away (away)
[Chorus]
Controller drift
We’re sliding off in different directions
You lean left
I’m pinned to the right
Losing connection
Can’t stay centered
When everything keeps pulling like this
We were locked in
Now we’re just fighting
We were side by side
Now we’re slightly missed
Controller drift
