Fallen Wings
A deeply personal autobiographical work transforming childhood trauma, spiritual warfare, and decades of silence into a testimony of redemption.
Fallen Wings weaves the tragic saga of an angel facing a unique judgment: incarceration within the human form. While the framework of the story draws from biblical and apocryphal themes, the pain, isolation, and trauma are entirely real. This album is a profoundly personal, autobiographical project. The angel's earthly journey is a direct reflection of Thomas's own life—serving as a therapeutic vessel to process and vocalize a deeply difficult childhood marked by severe abuse, brokenness, and trauma.
The narrative does not just borrow from fantasy; it recounts Thomas's actual, real-life encounters with demonic entities and spiritual warfare during his youth and adult years. These terrifying experiences are channeled directly into the music, with the watchers and shadows that haunted him reimagined as the forces tormenting the exiled angel. Ultimately, just as Thomas found his own salvation and calling in Christ after enduring years of darkness, the protagonist finds redemption not in escape, but in submission to the Father's will—proving that even the most agonizing trials can be forged into a powerful testimony of restoration.
Creating this album is a deliberate act of breaking decades of silence. It is not simply about recounting the past, but about exposing the very real spiritual warfare that thrives in secrecy. By transforming these agonizing, suppressed memories into a public testimony, the true purpose of Fallen Wings is to reach others who might be trapped in their own silent, abusive battles—offering them a heavy, uncompromising beacon of hope and a reminder that even the most shattered lives can be redeemed by the Creator.
This album was among the most difficult projects Thomas has ever undertaken. Writing and recording it required him to revisit, in detail, memories that had been buried for decades. Each track demanded that he re-enter specific moments of pain, abuse, and spiritual darkness in order to translate them honestly into music. The process was not a single creative session but an extended period of confronting the past directly — at times halting production entirely until he was able to continue. The result is an album that carries the full weight of that process in every note.
“Be not forgetful to entertain strangers, for some have entertained angels unawares. For the Watchers once descended from the high heaven, leaving the eternal for the weakness of flesh. Bound to the form of men, they became polluted in the blood of mortality, and the darkness pursued them. The heavenly ones walked among humankind, not remembering their former glory, for the powers cast them into the bonds of flesh, that they might suffer as men. Yet even in exile, the lowly saw the works of the angels, and the veil between heaven and earth was stirred.”
