Singer-songwriter Joseph Eid paints a realistic, insightful picture of how life's more difficult moments shape our identity with his latest tune, "Watch It Fall." Led by the sunny strum of an acoustic guitar, Vern Monnett's emotional pedal steel, and Eid's comforting vocals, "Watch It Fall" balances the joy with the melancholy as it uses the varied stories of a building's tenants as a metaphor for one man's life.
"The old lady by the stairs been living there for 40 years, she’s got stories of fright She tells tales of ghosts in the halls from tenants who lived here before and the way that they died, Then she touches my face and says “I remember the man in your place” and that’s when I slowly start to back out And I say “lady thank you for the history but I really gotta go, you see, there’s some things I don’t wanna know about.” I watch it all fall fall fall down, From the roof to the walls to the ground ground ground, I watch a dream sink sink sink low low low, they keep on telling me “go” But one day when I’m famous, I’ll finally move out of here, I first said ‘6 months’ but it’s been 6 years and I’m still here. . . " The music video, filmed and directed by Patrick McPherson, brings the vision behind the music to life. A split screen reveals both the broken artist and the people’s lives he witnesses who inspire him to create something beautiful. Enjoy the video above and for more information visit the links below.
