Slow Dawn Lyrics

midnight people rushing for a downtown train
watching and wasting away
empty hearts beat free
cool frequency
and I don't know what it is
I'm gonna run
the slow dawn
seeking sigh
oh so faint
I'm gonna run
the slow dawn
away
it's best undone
[hard to hear this part]
and I'm not sure what it is
but I'm sure that I can give
away the slow dawn
slow dawn moves by your side
takes your silent sleep
slow dawn
midnight people washing down here, wasting away
they're gonna run
the slow dawn away
the slow dawn away
the slow dawn away
the slow dawn away

from machina II right?? why the FUCK didn't they just release machina II as their official last album? :angry:

but then again i also think TAFH should've been released in Mellon Collie's place...

The song as a whole perfectly represents dawn. It starts out sort of quiet and subtle, but then becomes loud, huge and glorious.

When I hear this song I think of it being 4am in a train station in chicago then as it goes on the sun is rising over the buildings

Also one of my favourites. I simply think its about insomnia, and the fact you get to see the dawn instead of a nights sleep.

"When I hear this song I think of it being 4am in a train station" Same thing! I always feel happy when I hear this song and I feel I love the place I live in... that's just my personal association.

...and what a guitar solo there in the middle!! I feel this song is about being trapped as time passes by, like a dream where something is coming, but you just can't seem to move.
