The story behind the song

"Fallingwater" captures the feeling of being swept away by forces beyond your control, like water in a creek. It speaks to a moment where you thought you could manage things on your own, only to find yourself caught in a current. This indie pop song, with elements of pop and R&B, was written and co-produced by Maggie Rogers for her debut studio album, Heard It in a Past Life. It plays like an acknowledgment of surrender, finding a kind of peace in letting go.
