Wake the Dawn

This is for the 2015 NGADM Final Round! Our opponent is midimachine, go check out his stuff!


It's been an insane few months, but we've made it to the end! Many sleepless nights went into this competition, and we really poured our hearts out into it. If nothing else, it's forced us to work under pressure and deadlines, and we've definitely improved our writing process and production quality. Also, this competition is the first time we've really done any kind of writing with lyrics and vocals.


For this round we've got my wife singing the main vocals, with Josh/his wife/myself singing harmonies.


Lyrics:


Sinking deep into trial and flood
Finally, I've found the one my heart loves
Patiently we're waiting out the storm
Holding on for the morning to come


May the sun rise again until we find our way home
May our feet be swift and our spirits be strong
Guard our hearts as we travel forward to a new dawn
May our light shine before us as we go


Follow me, we'll fight the raging tide
Stay close to me, I'll keep you safe through the night
Set me free and lift the veil from my eyes
Holding on for the morning to come


May the sun rise again until we find our way home
May our feet be swift and our spirits be strong
Guard our hearts as we travel forward to a new dawn
May our light shine before us as we go


Hold on to me, we'll wake the dawn...

This song is absolutely stunning. Like holy crap is it really great. It puts me in my feels. It's nostalgic, uplifting and pleasant to the ears. The vocals, guitar, drums, just everything about this song is so good.

So happy that a daily GD level used this song, else, I don't think I would've ever come across this masterpiece.

A truly uprising, motivating chorus

I listened to this song a long while ago and damn, I never thought I'd be so happy to find it again while I was looking up for something to listen to while working on my art <3

Seriously, this is one of the best tracks I've heard in my life. <3

Hope you're still doing songs or... idk, maybe y'all found something else to do in life, whatever it is, I really hope it makes you happy and that you enjoy it ;w; <3

You're always gonna have a stranger from the internet wishing the best to all of you! <3

This is so beautiful, love the vocals as well <3
