If you’ve been broken before, the hardest part of falling in love might be allowing yourself to fall in the first place.

“Don’t Say,” the new single from Faded Rose, is a song for those moments when we want to believe in love. The indie rock songstress illustrates the often razor-thin line between fear and love — particularly, when we’ve been hurt before, but have the chance to start again with someone new.

“The song is about the experience of falling for someone and the fears that come along with being open and vulnerable,” Faded Rose said.

Recorded at Woodside Productions in Peekskill, NY, “Don’t Say” is a well-crafted indie rock tune with palpable 90s alternative overtones. Sonically, the single does a masterful job of portraying the tightrope we walk between trepidation and wonder, every time we fall for someone new.
