Lyrics:
Rolling out a map i get to work
I’ve always loved the smell of paper
Cartography is fun when we decide where everything resides
I hear a sound, i feel my chest puff up
Men, stand your ground, watch left, right, up, and down
Somewhere beyond that darkness someone is calling my name
Faintly i hear them say "dinner’s done, turn off the game"
How many times must i write a sad song?
It’s all been leading up to this day
A tune that i’ve been hearing all along
Creative gears, the bolts and screws of my brain
I’ve always felt it coming loose, turning grey
My skull will be a graveyard full of code
I’ll feel it all erode
Somewhere beyond that darkness someone is calling my name
Faintly I hear them say "dinner’s done turn off the game"
"Dinner’s done, turn off the game"
"Dinner’s done, turn off the-"
Have I outgrown Minecraft yet?
I don’t really know
Every so often I go back
Build another home
Kicking up dirt, I mine a new path
I plant a seed or two
But I never stick around long enough to see it bloom (oooo)
How many times must I die and restart?
It’s all been leading up to this time
The real world’s dim and I only live once
But getting to regen is getting old
I’m standing in the snow yet I’m not cold
Faintly I hear my name
"Dinner’s done, turn off the game"
Bring me back to those days
"Dinner’s done, turn off the game"
"Dinner’s done, turn off the game"
"Dinner’s done, turn off the-"
Have I outgrown Minecraft yet?
I don’t really know
Every so often I go back
Build another home
Kicking up dirt, I mine a new path
I plant a tree or two
But I never stick around long enough to see how much it grew (grew)
Does it matter how much I grew? (grew)
The torches dim, I feel the dark cave in
I’m in the ground, it’s over isn’t it?
I feel so small
Two pixels tall and I
Won't make it home to eat that pie
With him.

It's funny how as a kid I thought Minecraft would always be fun to me. I always come back when
there's a new update, or two, or maybe three... Idk. But, I play with friends only, can't play it all alone
(perhaps I'm not as creative as I was to do a fun solo playthrough). but it's still not as pleasing as it
used to be, and we often give up on our maps to play a faster game.
Maybe it's just life and how it goes as we grow up? Time is scarce...
I'm sure a lotta people feel the same. Cheers from a faraway country and thanks for reading whoever
you are :p
PS: That's a great song btw ;D
It’s crazy how good that cat is at singing
so true 😂❤❤❤
Man I was thinking the exact same thing lol
"My skull will be a graveyard full of code.
I feel it all erode."
Beautiful.
Ok now listen to this song again and imagine this:
Two kids who became friends through Minecraft. One of them was not quite good but enjoyed planning and building and the other usually guided him along and helped recover items if he died. They would play until dusk where both of their parents would say “Dinner’s done! Turn off the game” and they would stop for the day. They would eventually be able to meet up and play it together face to face. They promise to eventually fight the ender dragon when they are ready. They even got a cat together in Minecraft. Over time tho the other would get sick from anaemia or cancer or something. He tries to hide their condition from the other but he eventually finds out.
Eventually the sick kid (now teen[+-]) couldn’t play minecraft anymore because he had to stay in the hospital. The other kid tried to play in a new world each time so that they could experience the old world again when his friend is cured, but he slowly outgrew minecraft without his friend’s help. The sick kid eventually died, leaving a note for his friend to open when he finally defeated the ender dragon. He couldn’t do it, he didn't feel ready and was too afraid of disappointing his friend. Over time, life went through and they felt guilty for not being able to play minecraft again. Everytime he did, he didn’t go far before closing because of emotions. One day, after he graduated he went to his friend’s grave, mourning.
His friend’s parents showed up coincidentally so they chatted about him. The parents recalled when he was young he would call him for dinner but he didn’t go down to stay in the minecraft world a little bit more to finish off a building. Even when his illness succumbed to him, they still went on minecraft. After the conversation, he felt weird because he didn't remember any new builds showing up. So he finally decided to log back into the old world to inspect it.
There, he found a staircase he never seen before because he’s never enter the world after their friend went sick. Down there was a bunch of gears and pies to prepare for the ender dragon fight. On a sign written: “To my best friend. Let’s fight when I’m better”. He was meant to see it a long time ago…. Inhaling his breath, he decided to do it. He took the gears and some of the pies and went for the dragon, despite his emotions running amok. He sucked it up and fought the dragon. After a difficult battle (bc he was not good with combat), he won. He finally opened the note left for him.
“Thank you for everything…”
Tears swelled up in their eyes. The years of bottled up emotions flooded them and they cried. Just at that moment, an enderman attacked him and pushed him off the void. He died. But instead of feeling remorse, he felt resolved. He had fulfilled his friend's wishes and there’s nothing left to do. Suddenly the mom’s voice rang. “Dinner’s done!Turn off the game”. Memories came crashing in as he spectated the world, their cat, their house and the chest full of pies one last time before closing it and going down for dinner.
The End.
Yes.
Omg it sounds so cool!!!
Gives me a throwback of the old Minecraft music videos we all listened too 😭
I am sobbing like a little kid into my minecraft bees, I can't even think of my life without minecraft. Its kept me alive in some of the worst times in my life and I played it in beta. I feel like I've abandoned it sometimes
Same
Just checking in do you want to vent or talk?
@@Insanewithasmile I was venting at the time but I'm all good, thanks for asking
Its crazy how this song fills me with so much nostalgy
“I’ve always loved the smell of paper”
I’ve always loved the *taste* of paper :3
Same ( I ACTUALLY eat it irl for funzies)
I love this song so much please add ukulele chords I want play it so much
near the start of this music i was already in tears, this entire album feels like just all the pure emotions ive been feeling lately about growing up and escapism of where you are. my feelings arent the same as everything album is about but it still really resonates with me
This was the best 5 minutes and 47 seconds of my life, my new favorite music maker
MAds I JUST NEED TO TELL U HOW MUCH OF A CoMfoRt your SONGS ARE 🫶🫶🫶 THIS ONE IS ONE OF MY FAVS EEEKK💗💗💗
Minecraft is special to me cause I got to be in the same place with my long distance friends. Will never out grow minecraft.
made me cry cause lately been feeling this
I havent played minecraft in 7 months:( I really want to play every now and then, but 1. I don't have a phone 2. No electronics 3. I tried convincing my mother if I could have just one digital procreate ipad, she said "You think I'm made out of money!?" And I just don't want to outgrow games:( I would give every moment I have for just 5 mins of screen time with ONE ipad. I feel homeless:{
So glad I found this music you help me make story's and getting by in everyday life I relate to the most of the music you make
“Faintly I hear them say ‘dinners done turn off the game’”,so relatable it’s scary
Just… beautiful 😢
I don’t know why but I literally started crying like half way through this song it’s so good
I loved playing minecraft but my parents took the game and told me im too old for such an easy game. Im growing up i guess, but i dont want to yet
What about you tubers are they not alowed to play Minecraft? Didn't think do you'll never be to old fir Minecraft IR roblox or anything
@dadDDD235 thanks...I really like the game and once I move out I'm buying it again lol my parents get upset when they see youtubers playing minecraft so there's that ig. I liked roblox too but they made me stop playing it as well. My favorite games were flee the facility, murder mystery, fashion famous, and the mimic :) I miss playing them
