The second single (released November 6, 2004) from Darren’s sophomore solo album “The Tension and the Spark”.
While Darren himself has never(?) stated what the song is about, it seems to be a very clear, vivid and beautiful depiction of what depression feels like.
[Verse 1]
Been spending so much time underground
I guess my eyes adjusted
To the lack of light
I got covered in darkness
Covered in darkness
I have been needing
Always waiting for something new
Happiness always ending
In the blink of an eye
There was no one attending
No one attending
[Chorus]
It doesn't really matter where it all began
All I know
I got covered in darkness
Covered in darkness
[Verse 2]
Ever wonder why I never really truly connect?
Although my eyes are open
I can hold your gaze
But I am never connected
Never connected
I am famous for my generosity
They say I am the kindest
But it's easier to give than receive love
Give than receive love
[Chorus]
It doesn't really matter where it all began
All I know
I was covered in darkness
Covered in darkness
[Bridge]
Turning pages over
Run away to nowhere
And it's hard to take control
When your enemy's old and afraid of you
You'll discover that the monster you were running from
Is the monster in you
Better to hold on to love
Better to hold on to love
Change will come
[Chorus]
It doesn't really matter where it all began
All I know
I was covered in darkness
Covered in darkness
[Outro]
It doesn't really matter where it all began
Cause all I know
I was lost
I was lost
No, no
It doesn't really matter where it all began, no, no
All I know
I was lost
I feel lost
Lost
No...
