Name: When Words Can Only Hurt (new version) by David Tedora
Duration: 3 min 34 s
Description: The last of my revamped tracks for a while. The original was the first thing I recorded with my current interface and DAW so most of the reworking has been a matter of cleaning up the sound quality.

Beautiful playing, lovely track 😊👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

Expected vocals to come in right here... then - of course - 'words can only hurt'... Thanks; nice track.

Loving this introduction to your cloud David. I'll be back

sad silence ...unspoken regrets ...saddest melodies

Straight up love the sound of that beautiful guitar. Gentle playing filled with soul

The last of my revamped tracks for a while. The original was the first thing I recorded with my current interface and DAW so most of the reworking has been a matter of cleaning up the sound quality.

# Lyrics

You are strong enough to hold your ground
To fight the loneliness you keep too close

You have the will to hold the lights inside of yourself
The fire that burns in yourself

On you, you can rely to push on through
To lead the charge and make the next steps last

You have the will to hold the lights inside of yourself
The fires that burn in yourself

Shining lights
Burning bright
For yourself
For no one else

You have the will to hold the lights inside of yourself
The flames to fan and grow the lights inside of yourself
The fires that burn in yourself

Inside of Yourself

Arrows Of The Sun

Here is one of my favorite compositions from Mal Waldron titled Soul Eyes. I recorded this around 1999 as well with overdubbed guitar on my 4 track

A Little Bit You

The water slowly comes in 
I plant my feet into the ground 
Your eyes are dark and silent 
But I’m to proud to come around
One by one the leaves come down
They change your shape as you spin around
A hope for you see what’s left in me 

There’s a hope in your eyes I never thought I see
A shine in your soul that I cannot leave 

When I said it was you, you knew it was all on me
From heartache to heartbreak it’s everything I see
With every cut we hit the bone
With every lie we got to own
A little bit you is everything I need
In the pain I breath 

The taste of salt it fills my mouth
It strips away my faith and doubts 
Silently you slip away
With eyes that have everything to say
One by one these doubts come crashing in
Showing me the man that I have been

That hope in your eyes is gone and I must plead
That the shine in your soul it won’t, recede

When I said it was you, you knew it was all on me
The heartache to heartbreak is everything I see
With every lie we tell the most
With every pain I had host 
A little bit you is everything I need
In the pain breath 

Said it was you
(You knew it was all on me)
Said it was you
(You knew it was all on me)
The heartache and heartbreak is everything I see
In the pain I breath

Lyrics:  

(Tick Tock!!!)

One step in the name of love
One move and your place is gone
Step back to admit your wrong
Hold on to what you've got

Thing's don't always go the way that you planned
Almost never,Almost never
Thing's don't always go the way that you planned
Almost never,Almost never

One breath and your day is gone
One more to carry on
Fall back and you come undone
Once more to stay in front

Thing's don't always go the way that you planned
Almost never,Almost never
Thing's don't always go the way that you planned
Almost never,Almost never

If you could teach your heart
If you could fly above
If you could reach the stars
If you could learn to love

Thing's don't always go the way that you planned
Almost never,Almost never
Thing's don't always go the way that you planned
Almost never,Almost never
Almost never,Almost never
Almost never,Almost never

Plan B

I recorded this on my Les Paul ‘SaySo’ at night in near darkness. I used a DIY Jimmy Page style Hiwatt pedal into a Bassman sim. I don’t get much time fo soundcloud at the moment, this is my first post in a while. If you do listen and comment it’s always appreciated even if you don’t hear back for months :)

Starboard

The Fountainmaid

Dreams of the dazed
The dead speaks while life begets
False in the rapture
The fairy wails
In your eyes against demise
Fire on the fountain

Stolen by, ruled by desire
All my love, torn pieces of myself

Your sweet lipper taste
Roll it back & sleep the pain
Excommunication.
Disenchanted,
Disavowed by the wrong,
Fortress of my own

Glorified, born in the fires of sorrow
All the laughs, feed, crawl in denial
Spread and fly, forever now

Fear, not the light of dawn
Touch my shadow, and dusk shall follow
Face me, now I'm alive
Not tomorrow, my time is borrowed
For all my sorrow, I will follow

Lyrics

I've been waiting for the winds to change, To blow me back to shore.
I've been drifting here for several days, It makes me want her more.
You can see I broke her heart - and I know I let her down,
I was careless in the ways of love. So what do I do now?

Blue as I am I still have faith, I can turn this ship around, before it’s too late
Blue as I am I'll plead my case, before I run aground, before it’s too late

The sun and the moon shone down on me, It gave me time to think.
She's all I want, she's all I need to pull me back from the brink.
Sally said "Don't play that game!", "Your lies tore me apart".
"Why not be true with how you feel?", "Now's a good time to start".
I stood in amazement and nailed to the spot, My heartbeat started to race.
I took in the beauty that stood there before me, As she put me in my place.

Blue as I am I still have faith, I can turn this ship around, before it’s too late
Blue as I am I'll plead my case, before I run aground, before it’s too late

The sun  and the moon shone down on me, it gave  me time to think,
She's all I want, she's  all I need to pull me back from the brink.
Who am I fooling? No one but myself, I have to think this through.
What am I doing? I'm constantly screwing, everything up it's true.
If only the seconds didn't pass like hours and my mouth wasn't so damn dry.
I'd give her the reasons if I had the power, enough so I could try,

Blue as I am I still have faith, I can turn this ship around, before it’s too late
Blue as I am I'll plead my case, before I run aground, before it’s too late
