Neon tokens in my pocket
Faded logo on my sleeve
Dusty screens still flicker blue-green
Like they don't want me to leave
High score glowing on your initials
You laugh and bump my side
Your reflection in the glass pane
Looks like another life
Midnight arcade dreams
Keep pulling me back
To the ghost of us
In that cul‑de‑sac
Every pixel memory
Frozen on repeat
Midnight arcade dreams
Where you're still here with me
Sticky soda on the carpet
Broken joystick
Leaning right
You were leaning on my shoulder
Red and yellow buzzing lights
We were spinning in that parking lot
Summer on our breath
Talked forever 'bout the future
Like it couldn't end
Midnight arcade dreams
Keep pulling me back
To the ghost of us
In that cul‑de‑sac
Every pixel memory
Frozen on repeat
Midnight arcade dreams
Where you're still here with me
I wake up in a quiet room
But I still hear your name
Blinking like a high score
On a screen I can't reclaim
Midnight arcade dreams
Keep pulling me back
To the ghost of us
In that cul‑de‑sac
Every pixel memory
Frozen on repeat
Midnight arcade dreams
Where you're still here with me
