[Verse 1]
I did everything right
Learned every level
Every line
Knew your secret codes by heart
Still stuck on the start screen of your mind
[Pre-Chorus]
Extra lives
I burned ‘em all
Thought I’d break your final wall
Why’s it feel like every time I’m getting close
You just hit reset on us
[Chorus]
Guess my princess is in another castle
I can’t win you
I can’t pass you
I’ve been chasing hearts that never match you
Game keeps saying you’re in another castle
Every “try again” just takes me back to
You and me that never had a chance to
Load
[Verse 2]
You said “just have some fun”
But I kept racing for the crown
Dodged your doubts like falling stars
Still you pulled the platform out
[Pre-Chorus]
High score written in your name
I keep losing
Same old stage
All my tokens
All my faith I gave away
You just watch me fade to gray
[Chorus]
Guess my princess is in another castle
I can’t win you
I can’t pass you
I’ve been chasing hearts that never match you
Game keeps saying you’re in another castle
Every “try again” just takes me back to
You and me that never had a chance to
Load
[Bridge]
Maybe there’s a door I never checked
Some quiet world past all this mess
Where someone sees the player
Not the mask
Won’t make me beg
Won’t make me ask (hey!)
[Chorus]
Guess my princess is in another castle
I can’t win you
I can’t pass you
I’ve been chasing hearts that never match you
Game keeps saying you’re in another castle
So I drop the controller
Let you go
Walk away before I glitch my soul
And start again
Start again
Start again
On a brand new road
