Arcade - Duncan Laurence

This song is about a broken heart from a failed relationship. The singer describes feeling like their mind is a "foreign land" and silence ringing in their head after the breakup. They reference being addicted to a "losing game" like a small-town boy in a big arcade, spending all the love they had on a relationship that was always doomed to fail. The chorus reiterates that loving this person was like a losing game. In the bridge, the singer says they don't need the other person's games anymore and want to get off the "rollercoaster" of the relationship.

Arcade - Duncan Laurence

[Intro]
F G Em F (2x)

[Couplet 1]
F G Em F
A broken heart is all that's left I'm afraid of all I am
I'm still fixing all the cracks My mind feels like a foreign land
Lost a couple of pieces when Silence ringing inside my head
I carried it, carried it, carried it home Please, carry me, carry me, carry me home

[Pre-Chorus]
F G Am
I spent all of the love I've saved, we were always a losing game
F G Dm
Small-town boy in a big arcade, I got addicted to a losing game

[Chorus]
Am G C F Am G F
Ooh, ooh, Ooh, ooh All I know, all I know, loving you is a losing game

[Verse 2]
F G Em F

How many pennies in the slot?


Giving us up didn't take a lot
I saw the end 'fore it begun
Still I carried, I carried, I carry on

[Chorus (2x)]

[Bridge]
Dm C G
I don't need your games, game over
C Em F
Get me off this rollercoaster

[Chorus (2x)]

[Outro]
F G Em F
Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
