Explanation by vocalist Andy Atkins: Well, this song is a big step for us. This is the first song of our career that drops a real singing, “hook” chorus. It was a big jump that we were scared but excited to take. The five of us definitely have a love for melody. Our music used to be so much more melodic than it is now, but it still had rough, gritty vocals. When our music started going heavier and less melodic, we still wanted to keep that aspect of melody in our jams. Blake [Martin, guitar] had been talking about singing some on the album, so we tried it out here and liked the outcome so much that we added singing to other songs. Lyrically speaking, “The Fall” is me realizing that I’m falling from my faith in God and that I need to connect with Him on a real level and not blindly follow the religious B.S. that’s being thrown out to the masses.
