Falling Away is the second album by American rock band Crossfade, released on August 29, 2006. According to Mitch James, the band's bass player, the album has sold a little over 200,000 copies to date,[ when? ][ citation needed ] short of the platinum status of their self-titled debut. As a result, Crossfade parted ways with Columbia Records. The album spawned three singles: "Invincible", "Drown You Out", and "Already Gone". The song "Breathing Slowly" was also on the band's first album, Numb, which they released in 1999 under the name The Nothing.
