Friendly heads up: This has flashing lights here and there in this video for people that might not like those. ——————————————— DOWNLOAD LINK: https://dothedaringdew.bandcamp.com/album/we-were-here ——————————————— We were here. And we will be back. Hello again, everyone! I hope you all are staying safe and healthy during these crazy and troubling times. I’m doing what I can, but I know we will get through this together. It’s been over a year since I last posted a new song, and so I am thrilled to share the first of many things I have been working on in that time! What started off as my first submission for Ponies @ Dawn’s “Eternal” album, this one has unquestionably become my personal favorite song I have written/produced so far. It means a great deal to me because if it weren’t for the incredible memories you all helped me make over the years at these conventions, this song would not exist; you all are the reason I wrote this. Be it in the halls, room parties, concerts, panels, wherever else we’ve met at cons, you have all played a part in contributing to the greatest eight years of my life, and I am eternally grateful for that. With every iota of my being, thank you. This song, however, is a celebration of all of us, not just my personal experiences. We all walk the halls, we all attend the panels, and we all write our own stories about what these special places mean to us. These are things that can never be taken away. Please don’t ever forget that. Celebrate that. In fact, I heavily encourage you all to share some of your fun-but-appropriate convention stories in the comments. I’d love to see them! ——————————————— LYRICS A stage could not be better set We got to write our own history I held tight every other soul Who took part in the bliss with me We lived it up with no looking back Like we’d never again see the day A chapter written in our lives That nobody can take away Let it be known that far and wide We got to be who we are inside Goodbye all doubts and fear Let it be known that in the end We recalled each smile and tear We never blew away with the wind Let it be known that we were here Oh, we were here Yeah, we were here This place is perfect, take it with you Your port in an ever raging storm An embrace that time can’t erase Where returning is true to form This is where we can come alive Where enemies shake hands and heal Where no matter what happens outside These few days will always be real Let it be known that far and wide We lit a flame that never died Remember, remember Remember, remember that we were here Remember, remember Remember, remember that we were here Echoes that won’t ever fade Stories of nights that we would never trade And long after my fate calls Remember the laughter held in these halls Remember that we were here! ——————————————— The artwork was made by my good friend, Tommy Miller.
