About This Song


This is a song about someone losing hope. I imagine someone standing in the rain crying out for help and only finding emptiness.

Feedback Requested


I feel like this may be too dark. I have thought about changing it some to fit more of a CCM genre. Maybe finding some hope at the end?

PTSD in a song
Not too dark, expressive
There’s so much here to refine, mold and master. Of course, to prevent immersion in despair without hope, you’d have to cry out for the light somewhere clearly with hope.
A bridge of an answer?
Or it could be heavy metal…

Just came back to listen again and like it. So good because it really captures the private personal fight of PTSD.
I wouldn’t change a thing and use it for tv or movie.

Insomnia - Fallen Angels

Written by CHRISTINE JOY

Verse 1

Can you tell me where do fallen angels go
When they lose their will to fly
Can you tell me how do they learn to live again
Where do they go to cry
Can you tell me does God remember my name
Would He recognize my face
Have I been gone too long this time
Have I fallen from grace



[Chorus]

I don’t want to fall asleep tonight
I don’t know what demons I might find
The world has turned its back on me
Now hate is all that’s left where God used to be

(male echo: “Where God used to be…”)



[Verse 2 ]

Every night I’m talkin’ to the ceiling fan,
Prayin’ for a reason, any kind of plan.
Faith slipped through my hands like sand,
Now I’m just fightin’ shadows, man.
They say God’s listenin’ — I can’t tell,
All I hear’s my own private hell.
If I fell from grace, then where’d I land?
’Cause I don’t even recognize this man.
The mirror don’t lie — it just looks back,
Eyes so tired, they fade to black.
Hope packed its bags and left at dawn,
And I’m still here when the night drags on.



[Bridge]
I don’t know anything about life
I don’t know a damn thing about love
The only thing I know is hope
And all I know is that it’s gone

Yeah, I tried to pray, but the line went dead,
All these voices echo in my head.
If faith’s a fire, mine’s burned out —
But I’m still whisperin’ my doubt.



[Final Chorus ]

I don’t want to close my eyes
I don’t know what demons I might find
I wish the world would just set me free
’Cause hate is all that’s left where God used to be

Where God used to be… I can’t sleep, I can’t breathe



[Outro]

Can you tell me where do fallen angels go
When they lose their will to fly
Can you tell me how do they learn to love again
Where do they go to cry
Can you tell me… why
