[🔮 Style: Joji × glaive × Aries × Lil Peep if he owned a VR headset 🎧 Genre: Lo-Fi Trapcore × Emo-Hyperwave × Digital DreamGrunge 🎛️ BPM: 129 (glides between lazy float and sudden drop) 💔 Vibe: Nostalgic, sharp, self-aware, a little romantic, a little doomer, very online 📟 Theme: Living on the edge of connection—predicting the end before it begins, but diving anyway] 🜁 Lyrics — "In Before" [Intro – Whispered, glitched vox] In before the crash, in before the fade In before your last reply leaves me unmade [Verse 1 – mellow & confessional] In before the read receipt In before the ghost retreat In before your heart deletes What we had in that heartbeat You said "don’t fall too fast" But I’d already fell last week Felt the glitch right through your laugh Now I’m deep inside this leak Built a fantasy from fragments Got your name in every caption You were real—or just imagined? Doesn’t matter when it happens [Pre-Chorus – rising] In before the drop In before the screen goes black In before your friends all told you "Don't you ever message back" In before regret In before I lost the thread In before I said too much While typing what I never sent [Chorus – big energy, chantable] In before the heartbreak In before the blame In before I’m memed again And you're not the same In before the log out In before the fade In before I’m just a post You read then throw away In before the playlist That still says “us” In before the silence In before distrust In before the comments Start spelling the truth But I’m still glitching out On my version of you [Verse 2 – trap beat deepens, heavier synths] You were “alt” before it mattered I was "weird" before it paid Now our love’s some digital pattern That the server couldn't save You said "you’re intense" I said "yeah, that’s how I cope" You said "don’t get dense" I was already past hope You screenshot my soul I leaked every line You dipped out mid-arc While I still wrote your sign [Bridge – voicemail FX, warped vocals] "Hey... just wanted to say... I saw your new post and I knew you were talking about me." "It's fine, I guess... I knew you'd say it before you did." "In before... everything. Right?" [Final Chorus – full send, emotional surge] In before the heartbreak In before the game In before your friends pretend They don’t know my name In before the downfall In before the shame In before your playlist skipped To that song we claimed In before the closure Never came through In before I made a song Just to talk to you In before the memory Wrote its own script In before I vanish But you'll feel the crypt [Outro – decaying synths, layered whispers] In before... in before... in before... (you even knew the score) I was loving you in lag While you pressed “ignore”
