Falling - Single

Musically this song is a sister to the desert noir style of Arizona-based band Calexico. Lyrically "Falling" is fundamentally about when either an individual or a collective society doesn't choose to create a sustainable harmonious life for all living beings. "Falling" is another way of expressing the failure of how these choices impact all of us.

It was scheduled for release on 9/15/2022 in allegiance with the UN's International Day of Democracy.

Falling

by Mariana Tirsa (c.2016)

It’s a long time from Ancient Rome

Our castles have begun to crumble

Child of the American dream

Now I’m saddled like a mule on a hitchen’ team

Oohh, Oohh, Oohh

So many dreams falling to the ground

So many dreams burnt and brown

Oohh, Oohh, Oohh

So many dreams falling to the ground

So many dreams in the lost and found

Oohh Oohh Oohh

It’s a waste of our rights

The plenty hoarded by the few

Ever expanding pursuit

Now we’re beggars, debtors, and fools

Oohh, Oohh, Oohh

So many dreams falling to the ground

So many dreams burnt and brown

Gotta go to work

House, car,  family, body

Gotta get to bed

Wake up and start again

Gotta pay the bills 

two jobs for the baby

Gotta tend the day

What it brings and what it takes

Oohh

So many dreams falling to the ground

So many dreams burnt and brown

So many dreams falling to the ground

So many dreams in the lost and found

Oohh Oohh Oohh

The Man No One Sees - Single

"The Man No One Sees" captures the alluring sounds of today's modern indie-folk genre, both melancholic and anthemic. Great for those long road trips!" - So Plum Music
