DAWN is primarily about the spirit of perseverance through hard times; to be lost but still moving forward, to be without control of a situation trusting your instincts and taking each step anyway, to be in darkness yet relentless in hanging on till the next daybreak.
From an interview between BRON...
[Verse 1]
Take a step forward
Lost in a darkness
Trust yourself, let go
And breathe in a lush air
Take a step forward
Lost in a darkness
Trust yourself, let go
And breathe in a lush air
[Chorus]
Calling for the hero
Here comes a big rush
If only for tomorrow
Hold on and push up
[Verse 2]
Never give it up
Save yourself from doubt
Never give it up
Save yourself from doubt
Never give it up
Save yourself from doubt
[Outro]
Never give it up
Save yourself from doubt
Never give it up
Save yourself from doubt

Working with Totally Enormous Extinct Dinosaurs on this song was the last step in completing our album. We felt his lyrics bring a sense of hope, and his vocals compliment the tone and energy of the song perfectly
