Duration: 4 min 10 s
Description: a song from 2013, our cat "Devil" was snorring right in the mic (and hiss, but he was one of the cutest and nices cats we ever had).

Great use of delay and tremolo on that guitar! Love Devil Cat- RIP

Wonderful playing and composition. A very exciting track indeed.

Sehr schön gemacht! Weiß aber nicht, ob ich mich trauen würde, das Kätzchen zu streicheln. ;o)

As a cat lover and a musician with a sense of humor I really enjoy this lol. The musics a good bop too! [via https://sc.repostexchange.com]

Interesting track with a good beat. Animal sounds sing out.

Fantasy

“You taught me"

Used to think
that forever love
was just a fairytale
But then you came along 
Hmm
Years gone and questioning 
every step I took with you
Asking if the love itself 
was it crueler than you?

What if I never started 
believing in love
Would I still be standing
or would I fade away?
Yeah
Would I keep pretending 
or find another way
tell me babe
i’d still be there
Still there to be played wit

Hook
What if I never started 
believing in love
Would I still be there 
to be played with
You sorry that we met?
Sorry that we met 
or was it all a test?

Reminds me of
someone I used to adore
these days yeah 
I don't know ‘em anymore
What happened to the one
I used to always 
call a friend?
Now you're just a ghost
it's hard to understand
You’re like a ghost
fading away in the past
Yeah used to love you
And yeah you've left your mark
But I won't let you
Come for me
I Rose above all your deceptions
(just wait and see.x2)

We used to vibe baby
side by side
Now i see.
Not loyal, just lies
Didn’t change,
you just lost in deceit
best believe
I won't be the one 
at your feet.

Hook
What if I never started 
believing in love
Would I still be there 
to be played with
You sorry that we met
or was it all a test?

"You Taught Me" - Stephan Manu [Prod. Kenfrom24]

A man with a mission, like in the books you have read. (Lyrics below credits)

Our story begins many years ago,
On a moonlit night with the street lamps aglow
Enter a stranger, a tall man indeed,
He emerged from the station, looking hungry and lean,
Some saw him heading for the central cafe,
And later at the cemetery kneeling down to pray,
He continued his journey as the rain started down,
Not taking shelter like some misguided clown,

And he kept on walking right down the road,
His collar turned up his face never showed,
All of the time he stared straight ahead,
A man with a mission, like in the books you have read,

He stopped only once to wring out his scarf,
Looking this way and that with a furtive glance,
Then in a phone booth he made a two minute call,
To whom, we must ponder the significance of it all,
He continued his journey and glanced at his watch,
The meaning was clear, no time to be lost,
So he quickened his pace looking up for a sign,
He was searching for something that can't be defined,

And he kept on walking right down the road,
His collar turned up his face never showed,
All of the time he stared straight ahead,
A man with a mission, like in the books you have read,

He was approaching the dark house when events took a turn,
The man had to stop, maybe some doubts had returned,
He checked in his pockets to see if it was there,
But before he could be certain a sound shook the air,
It was the dead of the night when he witnessed the crime,
Though he thought he was mistaken and had misread the signs,
He heard several voices from the pool room inside,
But the shot that he heard was obscured by the 9:09,

And he kept on walking right down the road,
His collar turned up his face never showed,
All of the time he stared straight ahead,
A man with a mission, like in the books you have read,

A car headlight cast his shadow on a wall,
Though you couldn't see it then his face told it all,
There where signs he was weary and nearing his goal,
But alas there's no end to this story being told,
Where did he go on that miserable night?
Was he travelling with intent or running in flight?
All that we know is what we read the next day,
A man in his prime found dead on the highway,

He's no longer walking right down the road,
But his collar's turned up his face never shown,
All of the time he still stared but was dead,
A man with a mission, like in the books you have read,

They looked in his pockets but could find no ID,
Just a man with a mission who died mysteriously,
They looked in his pockets but could find no ID,
Just a man with a mission who died mysteriously.

Hello everyone,
this is finally my first original tune "Elwood's Tune". I wrote the lyrics and the melody - for the first time.
I hope you like it :) If so, please leave a like, a comment and repost the song. If you have some feedback - positive or negative - you can write it in the comments as well.
Have a nice week

Song background:
I wrote the song influenced by the movie "Harvey" from 1950, starring James Stewart. The main character Elwood is a warm and pleasant human being and is starting to have a friendly conversation with everyone he meets. Usually he even invites them for dinner to his home. Even though it's not the only thing the movie is about, I think that in today's day and age - 73 years later - we could use some of this care and friendliness towards others. Maybe even more than ever.

Elwood's Tune

An elegiac song about lost love, death, resentment, remorse & regret.

“My grief lies all within,
And these external manners of lament
Are merely shadows to the unseen grief
That swells with silence in the tortured soul.”
― William Shakespeare: from Richard II

“His love for her was so deeply woven with resentment that he could not untangle the two.”
― Kim Edwards, The Memory Keeper's Daughter

“I’m unsure which pain is worse– the shock of what happened or the ache for what never will.”
– Unknown

Lyrics
"Of all the sad words of tongue or pen, the saddest are these, 'It might have been'."

All of us, we make mistakes
Act a little too late
I’ve done my fair share of all that and more
Many messages yesterday
Saying you’d passed away
Fired up bittersweet memories that cut me to my core

Way back when we were involved
I hurt your feelings, all unresolved
Next time we met, your voice, it froze my heart
You left me crying at the station
My love in vain, so blue and lonesome
I never thought that’d be the way we’d part

I never saw you again
We never talked through your pain
And the anger it seems you couldn’t put away
Did you ever ask after me?
You know, we kept the same company
Like that threesome with your so-called fiancé/fiancée

But you didn’t stop smoking
And boozing and joking
Put on weight and rolled like a drunken sailor's bum
Okay, I did the same
I’m not trying to pin blame
I just think you marched to the wrong beat of your drum

Seems you wasted away
Quite why, they didn’t say
Lousy habits, bad health? How should I know?
I hadn’t seen you in years
But I’ll surely shed tears
For what was lost and now lies in deep sorrow
And the part of me that'll always be . . . hollow

Lyrics
I hate to admit it but I miss your face
I hate to admit that I made a mistake
Ours is a life of thunder and rain
The sun breaks out and then it's clouds
again

All is ask is that you follow
All is ask is that you follow
All is ask is that you follow
Me over the cliff

From up here I see for miles
From up here I love the view
From up here my vision's clearest
I paint my sadness over you

I know my gift is just to hurt you
One of many things I've said
And while I know you lose your way
I'm the one to lose his head

All is ask is that you follow
All is ask is that you follow
All is ask is that you follow
Me over the cliff

If I can't have it then you neither can you
What was a lie has become our truth
I see you die a little more each day
I feel like crying when I see your face

All is ask is that you follow
All is ask is that you follow
All is ask is that you follow
Me over the cliff

Over The Cliff by US based UK born singer songwriter These Guitars Say Sorry

So here's to the arrival of something about departures.
Learned this expression from coworkers early in my working life, when someone fairly high-up left.

The wistful cabal saw him depart/
And their mood was nothing if not quite tart

Don't Let The Door Hit Ya In The Ass On The Way Out

Darkness seeps out of the orange on the old walls
no matter how I turn it
the past crawls nimbly
like a nightmare into me 
Everything becomes illusion, 
Don't want to be here
it won't let me go, I can't free myself from its tight grip here 

Chorus:
Help, where is the exit of my head
the walls are coming closer
orange is the color of trauma
with that being said
it's no wonder that's the color of my aura

The cacti on the dim windowsill
are somehow like me
they don't need much love, only light
but thats a lie
they seem fulfilled with the drought
but i phantasize their cries in lonely summer nights

Chorus:
Help, where is the exit of my head
the walls are coming closer
orange is the color of trauma
with that being said
it's no wonder that's the color of my aura

The steps are lined with blue carpet
they remind me of my childhood
And the reddish brown tiles 
still absorb every light
The house fulfills its constricting duty
It shakes every newly grown layer 
carefully cultivated, fertilized me's
I shrink, shrink, shrink
Till I am so small that my defenses sink

Chorus:
Help, where is the exit of my head
the walls are coming closer
orange is the color of trauma
with that being said
it's no wonder that's the color of my aura

The Color Of Trauma ("Studio" Version)
