Lyrics
Verse 1
I hate how I get obsessed
Hunting for monsters while my laundry stays unpressed
Searching bushes like a freak
It's kind of sad how I spend my weeks
I find myself hoping for a lucky break
But I make the same dumb mistakes
Pre-Chorus 1
I trade away my best years
I buy the cards to hide all my fears
Got to own them all right now
Chorus
You got to catch them all to be the king
But losing life is such a funny thing
My yellow mouse has way more drive than me
Stuck inside a screen at half past 3
I got a full pack
I want my youth back
Just give it back
Verse 2
I forgot what your eyes look like
Staring at a level twenty on a green bike
Missing dinner with my friends
Is this really how my lonely story ends
Evolution feels like such a rotten lie
Since I am just the same boring guy
Pre-Chorus 2
I think I finally figured it out
Winning battles is what it's all about
I am leveling up to go nowhere fast
Chorus
You got to catch them all to be the king
But losing life is such a funny thing
My yellow mouse has way more drive than me
Stuck inside a screen at half past 3
I got a full
I want my youth back!

Bridge
Training till I am blind
Leaving all the real world stuff behind
The badges don't mean a thing
They mean less and less with every win
There's no reward when the credit roll ends
Just a battery drain and no friends
A winner in a pixel town
With no one left to crowd around
I'm just a guy with a plastic toy
A very lonely middle-aged boy
Leveling up
Leveling up!
[[guitar solo]]
Chorus
You got to catch them all to be the king
But losing life is such a funny thing
My yellow mouse has way more drive than me
Stuck inside a screen at half past 3
I got a full pack
I want my youth back
Just give it back
Just give it back
Please give it back
