The degradation of self image, the lifting up of morals and idols false, and the insanity of it all.

Artist picture
Matthew Neff, 23 year old singer-songwriter, with an emphasis on inner and outer turmoil and triump in ones life. Acoustic, but meant to be hard rock, or at lea
Born from a trapped mind freed by a muse, Falling Rain (also known as Faction) is the colaboration between Jeff Schweiger, a creative guitarist and music lover, and Matthew Neff, a young power voice with a way with words. The music delves into lust, madness, incarceration, conformity, self-destructiveness, love, forgiveness, and anarchy. Recorded totally acousticlly with no editing, it is the seed that both Matthew and Jeff hope will grow into a great band, whether they are creating music together, or apart.

Story behind the song
Sitting and watching the soul killer known as the nightly news, I realized that this country is headed for self-annihilation. I felt like saying something about it...
Lyrics
Death comes in all shapes and sizes these days In a pill, between the sheets, through gamma rays And it’s getting easier, easier by the minute To find yourself up to your neck deep within it Rustle, rustle, shake and shiver Up and at em’, time to deliver Nock the arrow pulled from the quiver And take aim at my soul The everyday struggles of everyday life Like everyday hatred and everyday strife Why all this bullshit, for good gods sake Why can’t we shape up and just fly straight Vacant, vacant, ears and eyes It’s a practice I truly despise When we hide from ourselves within this disguise Of fear and vanity Wrapped up in a world of our own making Our souls are unguarded, ripe for the taking We have no substance, only style and fashion The rise of these things is the death of passion So I’ll continue to fight the good fight, tooth and nail Come and fight with me, or it will be to no avail
