## In depth

### Lyrics mode vs Song mode
Song mode writes the words for you from a one-line idea. Lyrics mode keeps every word yours: the engine only decides the melody, arrangement and performance. Many songwriters combine them — generate a draft in Song mode, rewrite the lyrics, then regenerate in Lyrics mode.

### Why section tags matter
Tags give the engine a map of the song:
- [Verse] — lower energy, the story.
- [Chorus] — the lift and the hook; repeated exactly.
- [Bridge] — contrast before the last chorus.
- [Intro] / [Outro] — optional instrumental space.
