Track Insight / Lyrics
Crisp air fills with echoes of old
Forgotten summers, images of gold
Tattered tokens lost in coin slits
Favorites in cabinets now dim lit
Punk rock and video games, the 80s scene
Rewind, fast forward, beam me clean
To a time when love was clumsy games
And dreams were pixel lives in retro frames
In dusty arcades we used to roam
Try to win our heart's desires back home
With every high score, we felt defined
Vulnerable, alive, our hearts on the line
Retro cabinets hum, a nostalgic thrum
Now dusty relics of a bygone drum
Kids today, their eyes on screens
No more Saturdays choosing our queens
Punk rock and video games, the 80s scene
Rewind, fast forward, beam me clean
To a time when love was clumsy games
And dreams were pixel lives in retro frames
In dusty arcades we used to roam
Try to win our heart's desires back home
With every high score, we felt defined
Vulnerable, alive, our hearts on the line
Though we've grown, those memories remain
Images of love within the pixel rain
Games of skill, love of a tender art
Still shining bright, a neon heart
In dusty arcades we used to roam
Try to win our heart's desires back home
With every high score, we felt defined
Vulnerable, alive, our hearts on the line
Neon signs fade, echoes die
Arcades disappear, so do I
