Dawn

Although ‘Dawn’ is not a concept album, many of the songs share a general theme of ‘light after darkness’. In this journey through emotions, the upbeat ‘Domestic Violence’ looks at a violent household from a child’s perspective. ‘Simon Smiles’ tells of a mentally-challenged child growing older. Other songs deal with different aspects of life, such as the liberating excitement of camping in the woods (Let’s Go Camping), remembering lost friends (Jurassic Park) or going through rough moments in a long term relationship (A Waltz).
