[Verse 1] Grease on the glass Thumbprints on every screen Change in a paper cup Buzz from the canned caffeine Flannel tied at my waist Kicked-out gum on my shoe Last high score on the board Still spelling out “you lose” [Chorus] Arcade nights We never grow up Burned-out eyes and a plastic cup Sticky floors and high scores Till they kill the lights Arcade nights Keep feeding that beast Cheap thrills Small-town release Sticky floors and high scores Screaming at the screen all night [Verse 2] Three lives One more Button-mash panic attack You lean on my shoulder Laughing “Don’t choke ” you say “don’t crack” Tickets spill like confession Red paper on the floor Trade them in for nothing Then we come back for more [Chorus] [Bridge] [low vocal register] Outside It’s closing time Inside We’re looping again Same old song in the speakers Same old ghosts for friends [guitar solo] You say “We’re stuck on this level” I say “That’s alright” As long as this place keeps humming We’re not going home tonight [Chorus]
