[Verse 1] Black nails Black hoodie Hiding in the back of the class Headphones loud Eyes distant Drawing storms in the margins He sat front row Quiet Thumbs dancing under the desk Pixel world Bright monsters Soft smile no one expected [Pre-Chorus] I never understood his silence All his colors lived on a screen Till he turned it toward me Said “Wanna see the world I mean?” [Chorus] Now I’m yelling at bosses and cheering for heroes Crying at scenes with the subtitles on Paused on a couch in a pile of controllers This emo heart got a save point Son I traded my sad songs for opening credits He traded his solo for sharing the seat I fell for an awkward Autistic gamer And now his weird little world feels like home to me [Verse 2] He info-dumps in essays About plots three seasons ahead I hang on every tangent Every side quest in his head He laughs when I mispronounce Every single character’s name But he holds my hand through dungeons Lets me die Then restarts the game [Pre-Chorus] He flaps his hands when he’s excited I swear it lights up the room I used to draw my ghosts in charcoal Now they dance in sailor moon boots [Chorus] Now I’m yelling at bosses and cheering for heroes Crying at scenes with the subtitles on Paused on a couch in a pile of controllers This emo heart got a save point Son I traded my sad songs for opening credits He traded his solo for sharing the seat I fell for an awkward Autistic gamer And now his weird little world feels like home to me [Bridge] [Beat drops to drums and tremolo guitar] You like your lines clear I live in shades of gray You script your days like turn-based fights I just improv my pain away But you count down “three Two” When the world feels much too loud I breathe with you on “one” And the noise just… dials down [Chorus] Now we’re yelling at bosses and cheering for heroes Crying at scenes with the subtitles on Two kids on a couch in a blanket fortress Every misfit piece finally found where it belongs I still wear my black and my chipped eyeliner You still tap “retry” when it’s hard to speak I fell for an honest Autistic gamer And now this player two love is the route I wanna keep [Outro] [Soft guitar Vocal almost whispered] Yeah This player two love Is the route I’m gonna keep (hey) This emo heart Got a save point in your heartbeat
