Falling apart
Matt Nathanson Lyrics

Maybe it's because I'm crazy,
Perhaps the reason why I am acting irrational is because I am losing my sanity.

Maybe it's because I just can't,
Perhaps the reason why I am not doing something is because I am incapable of doing so.

Honestly tell you what I want.
I cannot tell you what I truly desire, as it is difficult for me to be honest about my feelings.

It's never enough to stay still and hold you,
Simply being by your side is not sufficient for me, as I am always searching for something more than just physical closeness.

To break loose and run the taste of you,
I need to escape and experience the exhilarating sensation of you in every way possible.

Wild on my tongue.
I crave the rush and intensity of our connection in every moment.

Am I no good to you now?
Have my actions ruined my standing in your eyes?

We're spilling over.
Our relationship is reaching its breaking point as we struggle to contain our emotions and maintain balance.

Whoa-oh, whoa-oh whoa-oh
A vocalization of the strong emotions being felt within the song.

Spent my days with doctors,
I have been seeking help from professionals to cope with my emotional turmoil.

And my nights with crooks,
In the evenings I find myself surrounded by dishonest and unscrupulous people.

And all of them who sell me for a song.
These individuals see me as an easy target and take advantage of my vulnerable state for their own financial gain.

So I'm here.
Despite my best attempts to remedy my situation, I am still suffering and unable to find peace.

Safe Dear.
I feel secure with you by my side, even though I know I'm not truly safe.

A fiction in your arms.
The comfort and safety I feel in your embrace is temporary, as I know I am not truly protected from the harsh reality of my situation.

I'm giving up.
I am losing hope and motivation to keep going.

Starting over.
I need to begin anew and start fresh in order to regain control of my life.

I wanna be,
I desire to become something better.

I wanna hold you.
I crave the physical and emotional closeness that we share and want to hold onto it with everything I have.

Cause all I say,
Everything I say or do seems to fall short of my intentions.

It doesn't matter anyway.
My actions seem to have no impact on the greater picture and I feel powerless to effect any real change.

So call my bluff.
Challenge me to prove that I am capable of making a real difference in our relationship.

Cause I just need to be reminded who I am.
I need someone to come alongside me and help me discover my true identity and purpose once again.

So get me out
I need to be rescued from my situation as it stands.

For heaven's changed
The world around me has become a different place from what I once knew.

I should have told you
I regret not being upfront and honest with you about my struggles early on in our relationship.

So wanna be loved?
Do you desire to be loved?

So come on now
Encouragement to take action and not give up.

Come on love.
A desire to move forward and find the love that is hoped for.
