Die US-amerikanische, neoklassisch angehauchte Power- und Progressive Metal Force WITHERFALL präsentiert stolz die nächste Auskopplung `When It All Falls Away´ aus ihrem kommenden Longplayer „Sounds Of The Forgotten“, die am 31. Mai veröffentlicht wird.
WITHERFALL kommentieren den neuen Track:
„When It All Falls Away is reflective of our deep love of 70s Rock bands. Back when the lines between Rock/Prog/R&B were a bit blurry. The song is a dreamy meditation on the subject of loss. Whether it be relationships or life itself the song is about the emptiness that settles in when things are at an end. The title is also a nod to the band name „WITHERFALL“ which is meant to be quite literal. The song features many vintage elements such as a 12 string acoustic, Hammond Organ, Roland Chorus amps, Leslie Speakers and other various toys we had at our disposal while recording at Big Blue North“

Lyrics:
We sat alone under moonlit skies, waiting for the moment
To pass on by… Failing to see eye to eye, every strained expression leaves a mark.
The panic raised, it lit the spark, it set the stage but the lights stayed
Idly dark… And who could know if it’s there to find, a context from which might unwind…
And When it All Falls Away and the flames can’t warm the cold we’re feeling
And When It All Falls Away and we wake up from the lie we’re dreaming
I never wanna hear you say, that your tired of life, that you feel like giving up
And When it All Falls Away and your walls come crashing down…
Beneath the trees its just you and I, sitting ever silent in the dark…
Without a word you reach for my hand, a silent moment a lone remark
The wind exhaled, and chilled the air, oblivious to your unrepenting stare… But no one saw, no one seemed to care, Almost, like I wasn’t even there…
And When it All Falls Away and the flames can’t warm the cold we’re feeling
And When It All Falls Away and we wake up from the lie we’re dreaming
I never wanna hear you say, that your tired of life, that you feel like giving up
And When it All Falls Away and your walls come crashing down…
It was only a matter of time, we never really had a chance
They left us with nothing to say
And now our stars are out of line, what we once had has faded…
How do we bring them back, illuminate them? Let them shine, like a star.
Let Them Shine
And When it All Falls Away and the flames can’t warm the cold we’re feeling
And When It All Falls Away and we wake up from the lie we’re dreaming
I never wanna hear you say, that your tired of life, that you feel like giving up
And When it All Falls Away and your walls come crashing down…
