lyrics

this song was written for danny lee mclaughlin and is eternally dedicated to his memory. wa2d were good friends with danny and he was a steadfast supporter of our band in the early months. he always had kind and encouraging words and we came to depend on his presence in the audience whenever we'd have a gig. danny took his own life in march of 2011. we love and miss him. here is a link to a wonderful article that appeared in the santa barbara independent in the weeks following danny's passing: http://www.independent.com/news/2011/mar/16/danny-lee-mclaughlin-jr-1966-2011/
rest in peace, friend.

the surrounding sea, the foothills and the valleys. you adored these things, but darkness cuts even through paradise. i saw you the night before. seemed you were having one of your good days. now i know, you had just decided. maybe you were just relieved.
you never called. well, we both know i would not have answered. i never do.
there's darkness in me too. there's a darkness in me.
i missed you by half a mile. now i'm tripped up by what if's and you've made that list. and now, all that i'm missing is your crooked and well worn smile.
there's darkness in me too. there's a darkness in me.
it's unfair that you were lonely, it's unfair that you were scared. well, it's unfair that it's all so fucking unfair.
you never called. well...we both know i would not have answered. well, i never do...but i just hope you knew, i was glad each time you walked in the bar..i just hope you knew.
