Lyrics
[Intro]
[8-bit start sound
Coin chime]
New save file
Same old guy
One big heart
Too many lives
[Verse 1]
You walked in
Paused my world
Saw her name
On the screen unfurled
Different town
Same avatar
Same dumb smile
Yeah
I went too far
You said
"Who’s that?"
I mashed "skip text"
Side profile pic
Got me caught on the next level
[Chorus]
I got caught doing side quests
When you thought I was all main plot
Thought I’d never hit a game over
Guess I ran out of luck
Got caught
You were holding my controller
While I played two maps at once
I got caught doing side quests
Baby
Now my extra life is done (oh-oh)
[Verse 2]
You checked logs
Every chat
Each "hi"
Saw my "LOL"
Saw my "she’s just a guide"
You saw dates
Hidden in my stats
Fast-travel lies
In a secret map
You said
"Boy
This
Ain’t a sandbox"
This is us
Not some endless slot machine
[Chorus]
I got caught doing side quests
When you thought I was all main plot
Thought I’d never hit a game over
Guess I ran out of luck
Got caught
You were holding my controller
While I played two maps at once
I got caught doing side quests
Baby
Now my extra life is done (hey!)
[Bridge]
[8-bit health-low beeps under vocal]
Heart bar flashing red
You hit "quit"
Save file hanging
On a single glitch
You said
"Pick one
Or lose both hearts"
But I already
Pulled us apart
[Chorus]
I got caught doing side quests
When you thought I was all main plot
Thought I’d never hit a game over
Guess I ran out of luck
Got caught
Now it’s just me and the loading screen
No co-op
No restart run
I got caught doing side quests
Baby
Final boss
And I’m done
[Outro]
[Retro power-down sound]
Game over
Just my fault
Main quest lost
Side quest cost

Style
Chiptune pop-punk vibe over crunchy 8-bit arp and square-wave lead, swingy mid-tempo groove. Male vocals with playful attitude, tight doubles on the hook, and call-and-response “NPC crowd” chants in the chorus. Retro-game blips and coin sounds punctuate punchlines; middle section drops to filtered pads and clicky hi-hats before a final full-power chorus with octave lead synth and stacked gang vocals., male vocals
