"Early Dawn" is based on a novella I read about a three-hundred year old vampire who longs to see the dawn.
lyrics
Well, I rise in the morning
It's early dawn
I plug into human
With my fabric torn
When I feel this way
Oh, I can't go on
'Cause I know it's, oh, it's early dawn
I fly over oceans
Well, they're deep as you
I plug into misty
With my mountains blue
When I feel this way
Oh, I can't go on
Because I know, it's oh, it's early dawn
It's so still and so quiet
And I'm overdrawn
A hovering shadow
And then I'm gone
When I feel this way
Oh, I can't go on
'Cause I know it's, oh, it's early dawn
It's early dawn, it's early dawn
Well, I know it's oh, it's early dawn
"Cause I know it's, oh, it's early dawn
Well, it's early dawn, early dawn
It's early dawn, it's early dawn, it's early dawn
It's early dawn, it's early dawn
