Blood On The Screen
Lyrics
Intro
echoing announcer-style
Player one
Player two
Pick a side
Or get buried with both (yeah)
Verse 1 – Game Side
I’m in the lobby, sweat drip, heart thump
Throw me in the trial, I don’t run, I stump
Hook me once, twice, I still teabag the gate
You just press play, I rewire my fate
Joystick junkie, I respawn in the dark
Flashbang, locker stun, I’m farming you hard
You flinch at a jump scare, I break ankle jukes
You scream at a doll, I kite killers in loops
I got chainsaw champs, masked-up clowns
You got stuffed plush toys, talkin’ like they hold crowns
You pause your film when the knife gets near
I’m pausing to equip perks, then I farm your fear
You shake in the theater, I camp the hatch
You rewatch the trailer, I rematch the match
You quote some lines like it proves you tough
I’m knifing zombies in a school, that’s rough
Chorus – Both Sides
Blood on the screen, who’s real, who’s fake? (who?)
One side plays, one side shakes
You like your horror in a comfy seat
I like mine when my hands can bleed
Blood on the screen, pick fights, no peace
Jump scare junkies, dread fiends feast
You want credits, I want keys
Either way, fear pays our fees (yeah)
Verse 2 – Movie Side
Sit the hell down, joystick jester, breathe
You’re scared of a cutscene, I’m raised on grief
You mash that button, I watch fate crawl
Whole room silent when the mask hits the wall
You skip cutscenes just to brag you’re brave
I stare down a long hallway like an open grave
You got pixels, pop-ups, cheap ass shrieks
I got slow burn nightmares that don’t fade for weeks
You chase points, I chase plots and pain
That dread in my gut when the doorframe frames
You’re busy quick-saving when it gets too raw
I’m eyes wide open when the teeth hit jaw
You flex that you “clutch” when your squad goes down
I cheer when the final girl rips that crown
You hide in a locker, I watch them scream
You play survival, I live the theme
Chorus – Both Sides
Blood on the screen, who’s real, who’s fake? (who?)
One side plays, one side shakes
You like your horror in a comfy seat
I like mine when my hands can bleed
Blood on the screen, pick fights, no peace
Jump scare junkies, dread fiends feast
You want credits, I want keys
Either way, fear pays our fees (yeah)
Bridge – Call & Response
[Games] You watch
[Movies] I feel
[Games] You flinch
[Movies] I heal
[Games] You quote
[Movies] I choke
[Games] You sleep
[Movies] I don’t
[Both] Same damn nightmare, different road
Verse 3 – Back-to-Back Battle
[Games] I’m in a hallway, ammo low, health red
You’re on a sofa, snacks stacked, soft bed
I’m solving puzzles while I hear that laugh
You’re checking your phone while they cut folks in half
[Movies] I hear that phone ring, voice cold as hell
You’re yelling at a monitor, calling it skill
I taste that tension, crawl in my seat
You’re just farming achievements like they mean heat
[Games] I got split-second sweat, palms ice cold
Every wrong move and the file’s sold
You get two hours, popcorn and a twist
I get ten nights of “what the hell did I miss?”
[Movies] You need crosshairs just to feel alive
I just need one shot of that empty drive
You brag “boss beaten” like it changed your life
I still hear that lullaby when I kill the lights
Chorus – Both Sides
Blood on the screen, who’s real, who
