Falling Apart
Bang Gang Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

He was there
Wanted it so bad
I was lost
My soul had gone insane

What should I be doing ?
What is it you want ?
What will you be doing when I fall apart ?

What should...

I was lost
My soul had gone insane
By myself
Wasting all my love

What should...


What should...

Your taking my breath away
Your taking my breath away
Never look back

He was there
Wanted it so bad
I was lost
My soul had gone insane

What should...
What should...

Your taking my breath away




Your taking my breath away
Never look back x4

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Bang Gang's "Falling Apart" are reflective of the confusion and desperation one may feel in a tumultuous relationship. The song opens with the singer acknowledging the presence of someone who desires to be with them, despite their own inner turmoil. The singer then confesses to feeling lost and as if their soul has gone insane, indicating that they are struggling to navigate the complexities of their relationship alone. This is evident in the repeated questions of "What should I be doing? What is it you want? What will you be doing when I fall apart?", suggesting that they are unsure of how to proceed and what the other person's intentions are.


The chorus repeats the phrase "You're taking my breath away" multiple times, indicating that the intense emotions of the relationship are both overwhelming and suffocating. The final line of "Never look back" suggests that the singer is aware that the relationship may not be healthy or beneficial to their well-being, yet they still find themselves unable to let go.
