When We Still Believed

I waited here, the room kept breathing slow
Your shadow crossed the door, an ember in my throat
Tonight I dive in, let the silence rise
Past the edges of the world where secrets hide

If every moment felt this real, could we stay the night?
If love could last forever, would you turn on the light?
The only thing I ask is you don’t fade away
Hold me close until the dawn steals the grey

Breathe out, I breathe you in, hold tight to what remains
If promises could anchor us, I’d swear by your name
And when you say, “stay,” I’ll stay through every rain
Until the music swallows doubt and pain

If forever felt this true, I’d never let it end
But even sunny mornings find a way to bend

Things Will Get Better

"Lost in the Silence" 


“I loved those kids more than life itself. Thought I had everything I needed. But life, man… it tore me apart. Now I’m walking this hell alone, with only my guitar and these broken dreams.”

I loved the sunrise, I loved those small hands,
Built a life around them, tried to make a stand.
But love ain’t enough when the shadows grow long,
Now I’m just a ghost singing a lonesome song.

Every memory’s a knife in my chest,
Lost in the silence, I can’t find rest.

Lost in this hell, where the darkness creeps,
Walking these roads that my heart still keeps.
My soul’s been shattered, but I still believe,
There’s a spark in the darkness I need to retrieve.
Guitar crying like a broken man’s plea,
Strumming the pain I can’t set free.
Love’s a whisper, a ghost in the wind,
And I’m just a man trying to find himself again.

The nights are colder, the memories sting,
Echoes of laughter, now a hollowed-out thing.
I drown in whiskey, try to numb the ache,
But the silence screams, and my heart starts to break.

Every tear’s a river, every loss a storm,
Trying to hold on, but I’m losing form.

Lost in this hell, where the darkness creeps,
Walking these roads that my heart still keeps.
My soul’s been shattered, but I still believe,
There’s a spark in the darkness I need to retrieve.
Guitar crying like a broken man’s plea,
Strumming the pain I can’t set free.
Love’s a whisper, a ghost in the wind,
And I’m just a man trying to find himself again.

Maybe someday, I’ll find light again,
Beyond these scars, beyond this pain.
But right now, I’m just holding on tight,
To the hope that I’ll see dawn’s first light.

So I walk these broken roads alone,
Carrying a love I’ve never outgrown.
Lost in the hollow, searching for grace,
Trying to find my way back to that place.

The nights are colder, the memories sting,
And I’m just a man trying to find himself again.

The nights are colder, the memories sting,
Echoes of laughter, now a hollowed-out thing.
I drown in whiskey, try to numb the ache,
But the silence screams, and my heart starts to break.

Lost In This Silence

Learning To Care"

Forgiveness Is Our Ground

Yeah… we’re all learning, day by day.

I’ve walked this room a thousand times, the talks we never finished,
The way I spoke in storms, the way we danced around what’s diminished.
If love is gravity, I’m trying not to fall in vain,
But pride can turn to red tape around a heart that’s strained.

You say you still feel me, even when I lose my way,
Forgiveness is the rain that helps the flowers stay.
If we’re gonna grow together, we gotta give up the doubt,
Let mercy be the compass when our voices drown them out.

Can forgiveness be the bridge through the night?
Can love return to us when we’re both tired from the fight?
No one’s perfect, not me, not you, only God above,
But forgiveness is the ground where healing grows.
Should I stay and fight, or shoulders down, release the strain?
If mercy leads the way, we might find our way again.
I want to love you right, free from blame, calling out your name.

I’ve carried ghosts of talks we never laid to rest,
Apologies echoed hollow, still I’m asking for the best.
We’re not just two people hurting; we’re souls learning to care.

Let’s lay the past on the table, mend what’s torn and mend,
If your heart can forgive me, maybe we’ll find a home again.

Can forgiveness be the bridge through the night?
Can love return to us when we’re both tired from the fight?
No one’s perfect, not me, not you, only God above,
But forgiveness is the ground where healing grows.
Should I stay and fight, or shoulders down, release the strain?
If mercy leads the way, we might find our way again.
I want to love you right, free from blame, calling out your name............

Tadeo produces introspective, emotionally driven tracks primarily shared on SoundCloud. His work blends personal vulnerability with cultural references, often drawing from his San Antonio roots. From SoundCloud, Tadeo music explores a narrow but potent set of themes: heartbreak and loss, personal ambition and resilience, sports fandom, and fleeting romance. His style appears raw and confessional, using music as a "canvas" for "deepest emotions," as noted in his SoundCloud bio


Unlock the hidden depths of your soul through the power of music, where emotions find a voice and thoughts take flight. For me, music is more than just a melody; it's a canvas where I paint my deepest suppressed thoughts and feelings. Each chord, each lyric serves as a cathartic release, laying bare the innermost workings of my mind. Join me in this journey of vulnerability and authenticity, where music becomes the language of our unspoken truths. Together, let's weave a tapestry of emotions through the symphony of our shared experiences. 🎶🌌

Thanks to those who believed in me. You know who you are.  🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
