Song title: "Maps Made of Sound"
Language: English

[Intro]

[Pizzicato strings count five beats while piano and bass enter on shifting accents.]

[Verse 1]

One list for rain against the glass,
One for the late suburban train,
One for the hour the office clears,
One for the songs that outlived years.
A muted horn, a broken key,
A minor track beside a bright—
Move one song from four to three,
And grief begins to gather light.

[Pre-Chorus]

Not every road is drawn in ink.
Some routes are built from how we link
A voice, a pause, a snare, a chord—
A country no one can record.

[Chorus]

I am drawing maps made of sound,
Where the lost and the living can both gather round.
Every turn has a tempo, each silence a tone.
I can cross what I feel and still find my way home.
Maps made of sound, open and wide—
A song for the weather, a road for the mind.

[Verse 2]

The machine suggests forgotten scenes,
A city's clubs, a decade's dreams.
It sorts the dates and finds the thread;
I choose which colours leave the red.
I keep the take with fraying breath,
Reject the clean, expected choice.
The tool can point towards a door;
The hand decides, the ear gives voice.

[Chorus]

I am drawing maps made of sound,
Where the lost and the living can both gather round.
Every turn has a tempo, each silence a tone.
I can cross what I feel and still find my way home.
Maps made of sound, open and wide—
A song for the weather, a road for the mind.

[Instrumental]

[Piano, bass and pizzicato strings reshape the five-beat pattern while twin guitars quote the first three tracks.]

[Bridge]

A list is more than files in line.
The space between them changes time.
I set the doorway, leave it wide,
And let the listener step inside.

[Final Chorus]

I am drawing maps made of sound,
Where abandoned years can still gather round.
Every turn has a tempo, each absence a tone.
I can enter the winter and still make it home.
The system drew boxes and called them the ground;
I found wider countries in maps made of sound.

[Outro]

[The five-beat groove contracts into three piano notes and one sustained guitar harmonic.]
