about
“Falling” is the second part of Arya Zappa’s dream inspired “Dark Windows” video trilogy. Striding confidently across a spot lit modernist foyer Zappa is stalked by a voguing apparition. In her lyrics we hear of the wish to be alone but there’s a comfort in the groove and a playful teasing in her words.
“However the beat goes on
The night’s still dark
The pressure to follow the route of sex
More than this, the wish to be alone”
As the verse licks its lips - Zappa brings to mind other strong female artists like Grace Jones. When the chorus lifts in a clever key change she shows a sense of vulnerability, a lightness of touch. The effect is delicious giving a sense of spaciousness like the luxurious room she glides through.
lyrics
More than this the wish to be alone
however the beat goes on
the night’s still dark
The pressure to follow
the route of sex
More than this the wish to be alone
No peace
But other things
I’m falling
back like you
I’m falling
Just like you
I’m falling
Back like you
I’m falling
Just like you
Sweating out the void
That lies
behind the things
we do
Straight back into the void
by stuffing ourselves
with forks
and straws
No peace
But other things
I’m falling
back like you
I’m falling
Just like you
I’m falling
Back like you
I’m falling
Just like you
