Don't Feel 04:13
Don’t Feel Verse 1: I get up, but somethin’ always brings me down Is it love that finds a way to make me frown? Fill the cup half empty as it turns me around Rise above; but nothing seems to make a sound Verse 2: It’s been rough to find a way to see me now Had enough; I want a way out of this town Just shut up! Inside my head is just too loud I give up; ‘cause all that follows is this cloud. Chorus: And it’s the same ole thing that makes me lose control So I don’t care about anything anymore And it’s the same ole thing that shows me to the door I don’t feel anything ‘cause life is such a bore Bridge: Another day that I’m not dead Wake up you sleepy head Maybe I’ll flip a coin; well I don’t care so what’s the point Another day that I’m not dead Why get out of this bed Maybe I’ll flip a coin; well I don’t feel so what’s the point

It's A Shame 02:45
It’s A Shame Verse 1: You think your life is full of thunder You’re gonna see it all go under And everyday you’re gonna wonder What it’s like now with the other...yea. Chorus: Throw it away Why don’t you run away You’re such a Goddamn shame And I don’t take you’re blame You’re such a Goddamn shame You’re such a Goddamn shame Verse 2: And you just might think I’m the sucka You’re very wrong there, mothafucka From here on out I’ll never trust ya So just lay back and get your karma...yea. Repeat Chorus

Breathe 04:24
Breathe Verse 1: Lonely nights I spend just visualizing me on my own Spending every single day and night trapped in your hole Someone help me ‘cause my mind is blind and out of control Everyone around me sympathizing ‘cause they all know This isn’t where I wanted this to go Don’t wanna run around in circles no more This fantasy of mine has hit the floor It’s strangling my peace of mind Verse 2: For so long I was a prisoner of my own grief Thinking if I could just save the world, it’d bring me relief Didn’t realize ‘til recently, I wasn’t complete Couldn’t move ahead ‘til I decided to admit defeat It’s never what you think it’s gonna be Can’t spend my life just seeing what I wanna see ‘Cause there’s a life out there for you that’s meant to be Give up your fear and just believe Chorus: If you see the outside, you will be free If you let yourself go, then you can breathe If you let your past die, then you will see Everything is alright and I can be me Backgrounds: You’re everything you wanted to be Relax your mind and let yourself breathe It all will come and then you will see.

about

Equally inspired by Nine Inch Nails, The Cure, Nirvana, and Portishead, the LA-based project, After The Fall, combines gritty synthetics, cinematic textures, and sultry female melodies to support emotionally vulnerable lyrics. Consisting of singer/songwriter Irene Merring and composer/producer/multi-instrumentalist Mike Genato, the pair bonded in 2010 over their love for 90’s grunge and trip hop, and sought to develop a style that hearkens back to that era. What resulted was an album’s worth of deep, haunting, and moody songs about heartbreak, rape, grief, and addiction. In concert, Irene’s vocals and Mike’s electronics are augmented with a drummer and guitarist, resembling more of a traditional rock band lineup.
