Shane's Insight
Song Map in 2D
From Chapter 6 of Songwriting Breakthroughs — Each verse or bridge colors the chorus differently from an independent angle
Each verse or bridge approaches the chorus from a different perspective.
Verse order is usually interchangeable. Write your concept for each verse in its box. Do your ideas bring a unique angle to the title each time? Feel free to add additional verse sections.

From Chapter 7 of Songwriting Breakthroughs — Verses build on each other using the But/Therefore method
In a 3D song, each verse directly influences the next verse or bridge via
"But" (tension/conflict) or
"Therefore" (resolution). Click the connector labels to toggle between "But" and "Therefore". Write your concept for each verse in its box.
