Always Darkest is a song about the endurance of hope.

Many would lessen hope to childish and rosy magical thinking that view the world as it is not.  Yet, hope allows us the vision to conceive things as they could be.  Hope assumes a future making space for possibilities.  It is brave to hope out loud and not sink under dark waters. Well founded optimism is contagious and is what we all need, especially in the Always Darkest last moment of night.

Always Darkest (words and music by Sean Riley)

Its always darkest near the end.
The loosing streak before the win.
I believe that light is just around the corner.
Just get through this night.

I’m proud we’ve held together.
Enduring this brutal weather.
I believe that light is just around the corner.
Love will prove us right.

Keep awake and search the darkness.
Finding those to help us spark this.
I believe that light is just around the corner.
Tomorrow’s looking very bright.

Its always darkest near the end.
The loosing streak before the win.
I believe that light is just around the corner.
Just get through this night.
