Falling Apart
Jim Kroft Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Here I stand,
Flailing arms in the breeze,
I´m all lost at sea and The hardest truth i must meet,
Somehow to see
Is it feels like I´m falling apart.
I have found,
Myself on my knees in,
Strange cities,
Under unknowing stars
Waiting for you
Always for you
It feels like I´m falling apart -

How can I face my life, or find the strength to go on,
When it feels like I´m falling apart?

I walked out
In the spirit of a new world,
Drank the flames of an oracle
All my secrets disarmed,
Hoping to find

Salvation for this silhouette of a man
Who feels like he´s falling apart
How can I face my life,
Or find the strength to go on
When I´m falling apart
Tell me why
Tell me why




I´ll find the strength to go on
When I´m falling apart…..
