Fall Away

from Seasons Greetings by Monica Lee

/

about

This song is about letting go. It was inspired by Veda Hille, her music, her way of presenting song. She was a big influence on Lee's early writing.
Parts of this song were used in the score for the CBC Doc "A Safer Sex Trade" Directed by Carolyn Allain. The Doc was aired many times on CBC TV between 2006-2009.

lyrics

Fall Away

I watch the ember burn
I watch the paper give way
the fire devours it captor
and falls away

Fall away
fall away
fall away into nothingness

Fall away
fall away
there is nothing to fear

Let go of his hand
watch as the skin gives way
the host devours its master
and falls away


I am covered by snow’s fingerprints
the air thickens that way
the receiver melts the original
and falls away

Fall away
fall away
there is nothing to fear

Fall away
fall away
fall away into nothingness
