The basic version was finished a few months ago, but since it’s a rather calm song I felt it would benefit a lot from clean vocals instead of my usual rough voice. So I asked kaoz if he wanted to sing on this one. I sent him the first version for which I did all vocals myself, just as a guideline of how I more or less wanted things to turn out, but told him he was free to interpret the song in his very own way. I’m very happy with the result, I think he did a great job. After he sent me his files, I started working on the final version. The structure remained the same, but I added several elements to spice it up.
So here’s the final, mastered version with both of us on vocals.
Many thanks to kaoz for his excellent collaboration!

A dreamy rocksong with a few calmer parts, I guess it takes more than once to learn to appreciate it, but I’ll hope you enjoy it nonetheless.
Your opinion highly appreciated!
Cheerz!

Now We Fall
(music & lyrics: Rabauw)
(vocals: kaoz & Rabauw)

Lie down on earth’s soil under an overcast sky
All alone, nothing can harm you
The air doesn’t smell like it used to smell
The grass ain’t as green as it used to be

Well it must be the end of life as we know it
Yeah we must be on our way
To something deeper and more profound
We can feel it deep within
How else to explain the change of the seasons?
Eruptions all abound
The eye of the storm shatters us all
Oh we have risen, and now we will fall

Oh we have tried to survive and become larger than life
We have built these walls to protect us
From the dangers we collide with every day and every night
We are but tiny little worms as the flood rages by

The air doesn’t smell like it used to smell
The grass ain’t as green as it used to be
All that we are is but puppets on a string
