I Will Try
Post date:
Demo:
Liner Notes:
I have a tune in mind, I will try and get a demo up later. Ugh! Difficult! Chorus needs work. Look forward to checking out the other skirmish songs.
Ok with music, now. A few tweaks as I got music together. Sorry about noisey recording, washing machine going in background.
Lyrics:
I Will Try
I will try
To believe in love again
I will try
When hopelessness sets in
I will try
To be the man that I once was
Before this faithless love
Came and found me
So many times
I've wound up right back here
So many times
I've watched love disappear
So many times
I've seen lovers fall apart
Stumble through the dark
And hurt each other
It's hard to find
A reason
To keep believing
In the love I know I need
When it's always been a lie
But I will try
I will try
To find that diamond in the dust
I will try
To shake off this bitter rust
And I will try
Though I'm older than before
If a heart beats anymore
I will find it
It's hard to find
A reason
To keep to believing
In the love I know I need
When it's always been a lie
But I will try

Very good sad lyric. Very complete for a skirmish. Nice .
So relatable and I think many of us have been there. Good skirmish!
These are great lyrics, a struggle with hope that there’s still someone out there. Excellent skirmish.
Good take on the I will prompt. Been hurt but not going to let it stop you. Let us know when the music comes.
Bruised but not broken. This is a wise voice that knows it’s not a good idea to give up hope on satisfying the need for a good love connection. The rust/dust section really stood out for me. Please let us know when you get a demo up.
Beautiful chord choices for this sensitive subject. I like your vocal style too. Feels hopeful and wistful at the same time, a great fit for the lyric. Beautiful!
oh this is great! guitar/vocal work....really fits this write perfect! there's some heartfelt real hope and pain and regret and joy all wrapped up in this.....wow!
*applause*
Good job on the music. It paces the lyric bringing out the emotion.
Beautiful message and emotion. Very nice, wishful take on the prompt.

Such a relatable and melancholic lament on love that I think we all feel at one time or another. You put those feelings to words well! And the phrasing and pacing is perfect. Very heartfelt and honest feel.
Another good one, Ed. Lots of emotion, mellow, melancholy.
Well, you've got me pretty close to tears, man! This carries a ton of emotion.
