Falling apart
HAHLWEG Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I crawl beneath your skin
Find a way into your heart
I believe nothing is wrong
But things start to fall apart

I believe nothing is wrong
We start to fall apart
Asking how you feel with no answer
A shame it's the second time
I guess I'm just sick of trying
Fell apart but I'm doing...
A shame it's the second time

Asking how you feel with no answer
A shame it's the second time




I guess I'm just sick of trying
Fell apart but I'm doing fine

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to HAHLWEG's song "Falling Apart" seem to reflect the frustration and anxiety that can come with a deteriorating relationship. The first line, "I crawl beneath your skin," suggests a level of intimacy and deep emotional connection. However, the following line, "Find a way into your heart," indicates that this intimacy may be something the singer is striving for rather than already experiencing. The line "I believe nothing is wrong" presents a significant contrast to the rest of the lyrics, suggesting that despite the turmoil, the singer is in denial about the state of the relationship. The repetition of the phrase "start to fall apart" throughout the song emphasizes the sense of inevitability that the relationship is unraveling despite their best efforts.


The second verse continues the theme of frustration with the relationship, with the lyrics "Asking how you feel with no answer" indicating that the singer is struggling to communicate with their partner. The line "I guess I'm just sick of trying" suggests that they may have reached a point where they feel like they've exhausted all their attempts to fix things. The final line, "Fell apart but I'm doing fine" may be interpreted in multiple ways, from the singer finding a sense of strength and independence after the relationship's demise or employing a facade of contentment to hide their pain.


Overall, "Falling Apart" seems to capture the complexity and messiness of the breakdown of a romantic relationship, with its intimate moments, misunderstandings, and emotional turmoil.
