[Silence - 2 seconds]
[Bass enters with A-minor groove, light percussion]
[Verse 1]
The road bends quiet, no signs to read,
Lanterns in the fog, they flicker and bleed.
A whisper of footsteps, a shadow of rain,
The night keeps its secrets, but calls out my name.
[Chorus - Electric guitar strum in A-minor]
Carry me slow, through the silence untold,
Where stories are written in silver and gold.
I’ll follow the lanterns, wherever they go,
Through valleys of memory, through rivers that flow.
[Bass enters with A-minor groove, light percussion]
[Verse 2]
The stars are scattered, like pages torn,
Each one a promise, each one reborn.
I walk with the echoes, I walk with the flame,
The fog is a curtain, but I play the game.
[Chorus - Electric guitar strum in A-minor]
Carry me slow, through the silence untold,
Where stories are written in silver and gold.
I’ll follow the lanterns, wherever they go,
Through valleys of memory, through rivers that flow.
[Electric guitar solo in A-minor, blues phrasing]
[Bridge]
And if the dawn forgets my face,
I’ll leave my song in this quiet place.
Lanterns will guide me, steady and true,
Through fog that remembers, through skies that renew.
[Outro]
Carry me slow… carry me slow…
Lanterns in the fog, they already know.
[Bass and guitar fade in A-minor, lingering reverb]

Style 2:
An atmospheric blues-rock arrangement in A-minor with electric guitar arpeggios, deep bass, and restrained percussion. The sound builds slowly, layering reverb for a fog-like effect. Rich, gravelly male vocals cut through with raw emotion, balancing romance and mystery.
