Video game music (or VGM) is the soundtrack that accompanies video games. Early video game music was once limited to sounds of early sound chips, such as programmable sound generators (PSG) or FM synthesis chips. These limitations have led to the style of music known as chiptune, which became the sound of the first video games.
With technological advances, video game music has grown to include a wider range of sounds. Players can hear music in video games over a game's title screen, menus, and gameplay. Game soundtracks can also change depending on a player's actions or situation, such as indicating missed actions in rhythm games, informing the player they are in a dangerous situation, or rewarding them for specific achievements.
Video game music can be one of two kinds: original or licensed. The popularity of video game music has created education and job opportunities, generated awards, and led video game soundtracks to be commercially sold and performed in concerts.

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
But maybe that's a lie
Honey, what's your hurry?
Won't you stay inside?
Remember not to get too close to stars
They're never gonna give you love like ours
Where did you go?
I should know, but it's cold
And I don't wanna be lonely
So show me the way home
I can't lose another life
Hurry, I'm worried
The world's a little blurry
Or maybe it's my eyes
The friends I've had to bury
They keep me up at night
Said I couldn't love someone
'Cause I might break
If you're gonna die, not by mistake
So, where did you go?
I should know, but it's cold
And I don't wanna be lonely
So tell me you'll come home
Even if it's just a lie
I tried not to upset you
Let you rescue me the day I met you
I just wanted to protect you
But now I'll never get to
Hurry, I'm worried
Where did you go?
I should know, but it's cold
And I don't wanna be lonely
Was hoping you'd come home
I don't care if it's a lie
The lyrics to Billie Eilish's song "ilomilo" paint a picture of someone who is desperately trying to hold onto a relationship or a person they love.

They also talk about friends they've had to bury, hinting at a sense of loss and grief. The singer recognizes that they might not be the best person to love someone, as they have a tendency to break things, but they still want their loved one to come back to them, even if it's just a lie.
Overall, the song is a plea for someone to come back and stay with the singer, even though they know that it might not be possible. There is a sense of desperation and sadness throughout the lyrics, hinting at a feeling of loss or heartbreak.

Told you not to worry
I tried to reassure you
But maybe that's a lie
But deep down, I may not have been truthful
Honey, what's your hurry?
Why the rush?
Won't you stay inside?
Can't you stay here with me?
Remember not to get too close to stars
Don't aim for something unattainable
They're never gonna give you love like ours
Our love is unique and can't be replicated
Where did you go?
Where did you disappear to?
I should know, but it's cold
I usually have an idea, but I'm not confident this time
And I don't wanna be lonely
And I don't want to feel alone
So show me the way home
Lead me back to the place where we belong
I can't lose another life
I can't bear to lose anyone else
Hurry, I'm worried
Please hurry, I'm scared
The world's a little blurry
I feel disoriented and uncertain
Or maybe it's my eyes
Maybe it's just me
The friends I've had to bury
The people I've lost
They keep me up at night
I can't stop thinking about them
Said I couldn't love someone
People once told me that I couldn't love another person
'Cause I might break
Out of fear that I might hurt them or get hurt myself
If you're gonna die, not by mistake
If you're going to die, let it not be an accident
So, where did you go?
So, where did you disappear to?
I should know, but it's cold
I have a feeling, but I'm not entirely sure because it's cold
And I don't wanna be lonely
And I don't want to feel alone
So tell me you'll come home
Promise me you'll come back
Even if it's just a lie
Even if it's not true
I tried not to upset you
I didn't want to make you upset
Let you rescue me the day I met you
But you helped me when we met
I just wanted to protect you
I just wanted to keep you safe
But now I'll never get to
But now I can't anymore
