I Still Hear You In The Drop

[Intro]

(Far-away piano, vinyl crackle)
Crowd noise fading out…
One last reverb tail

⸻

[Verse 1]

The lights came up too fast
Like they knew we wouldn’t last
Your jacket on the floor
I didn’t bring it back

I screamed the words so loud
Lost my voice in the crowd
But when the bass cut out
You were nowhere around

⸻

[Pre-Chorus]

I told myself I’m fine
That the noise would drown you out
But every quiet moment
Says your name out loud

⸻

[DROP / Chorus]

💔 I still hear you in the drop 💔
Every time the kick drum stops
I’m holding ghosts instead of hands
In a room that doesn’t care

I still hear you in the drop
When the melody gets soft
Everyone’s screaming “one more song”
I’m just wishing you were there

⸻

[Post-Drop]

(Ohhh—)
I still hear you
(Ohhh—)

⸻

[Verse 2]

Your shadow in the smoke
Still dancing on my chest
I swear I felt your breath
When the lights went red

My phone lights up again
But it’s never you
I keep refreshing lies
Like it’s something new

⸻

[Pre-Chorus 2]

I chased the highs
To outrun the truth
But the loudest sound
Is missing you

⸻

[DROP / Chorus 2 – Heavier Emotion]

🖤 I still hear you in the drop 🖤
When the crowd jumps, I just stop
Your voice buried in the bass
In a song we didn’t save

I still hear you in the drop
When the chorus finally falls
They’re losing their minds around me
I’m losing you again

⸻

[Bridge – Half-Time Breakdown]

(Stripped vocals, low sub)
If I leave early
Will you come home with me?
Or am I stuck
With the echo of what we used to be?

I’d trade every encore
For one real goodbye

⸻

[FINAL DROP – DEVASTATING BUT BEAUTIFUL]

🔥 I still hear you in the drop 🔥
Even when my heart shuts off
Every note pulls me apart
Like it knows exactly where you are

I still hear you in the drop
Turn the pain into applause
They’re screaming for the lights to fall
I’m screaming in the dark

⸻

[Outro]

(Piano, crowd gone)
Last song ended
You didn’t stay
