Story Behind The Song
Fall Away tells its story through broad lyrical strokes that suggest a young person finding themselves in life and love. In a constant battle for acceptance of others, and financial success do we kind of miss the beauty of the day?
Song Description
The energy of Fall Away kicks off with a tasteful drum fill and is immediately joined by the band. The acoustic rhythm guitar leads the way and a simple violin melody is the focus.
The verse adds a simple bass groove and the violin takes a rest, while the compelling vocals contemplate getting lost in the struggle for acceptance and success.

Lyrics
--MIX MINUS AVAILABLE FOR THIS TRACK--
I hate the rain
I hate the grey
Left foot, right foot, wrong foot
Keep it sane
I battle my mind
most every day
think it, speak it, feel it
don't want to feel the pain
and I don't wanna fall away today
Won't you step inside
Cause it's been awhile
Spend so much time living
Never stop to feel alive
And I know it's me
That you like to hide
Don't know where to find it
Don't know if I can force a smile
and I don't wanna fall away today
All this time
While the blue turns into grey
everyday it's all the same
All this time
I been searching for the new
as the now just slips away
everyday it's all the same
