[INTRO]
[Solo felt piano]
[A distant reverse guitar swells underneath]
[Very soft filtered vocal chops]
---
[VERSE 1]
Every road I ever borrowed
Left a little dust inside my shoes
I kept folding maps like paper birds
Watching every skyline come unglued
Found my name in strangers' laughter
Heard my heartbeat echo through cafés
Funny how a thousand different doorways
Never knew the one I'd always chase
---
[PRE-CHORUS]
I stopped measuring the miles
Stopped counting every train
Some things don't wait behind you
Some things don't stay
They move with you...
---
[CHORUS]
Home is a feeling
It follows when you're running
Lives inside the voices
You thought you'd left behind
Home is the silence
After all the noise is fading
Not a place you find...
A place you carry.
---
[DROP 1]
[No lyrics]
[Lead melody played by: Acoustic guitar - Bright pluck - Layered supersaw - Vocal chops repeating: "Carry..."]
[Drums: Punchy four-on-the-floor - Warm bass - Wide piano chords]
[Melody should feel uplifting rather than aggressive]
---
[VERSE 2]
Morning found me by the river
Watching old reflections drift away
Turns out every broken compass
Still remembered where my hands would pray
Every face became a chapter
Every goodbye learned another name
Nothing disappeared behind me
Everything became my frame
---
[PRE-CHORUS 2]
Maybe every open window
Was already pointing home
Maybe all this wandering
Was teaching where I belong
---
[CHORUS]
Home is a feeling
It follows when you're running
Lives inside the voices
You thought you'd left behind
Home is the silence
After all the noise is fading
Not a place you find...
A place you carry.
---
[BREAKDOWN]
[Everything strips away]
[Only: piano, Soft strings, Single vocal]
---
Maybe home was never waiting
At the end of any road
Maybe every step I took
Was another brick I chose
---
[A single guitar note rings]
[Huge riser begins]
---
[FINAL DROP]
[Same melody... but larger]
[Add: Counter guitar melody - Choir pad - Wide Walker-style atmospheric synths - Extra percussion - Octave lead - Bigger bass movement]
[Vocal chops: "Carry..." "Carry..." "Carry..."]
---
[OUTRO]
[Piano returns]
[Only one vocal]
[Almost whispered]
"I was looking for a place...
...and found a feeling."
[Long reverb tail]
[Fade]
[End]
