Mixed version Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Ooh, I fall apart
Ooh, yeah, mmm, yeah
She told me that I'm not enough (Yeah)
And she left me with a broken heart (Yeah)
She fooled me twice and it's all my fault (Yeah)
She cut too deep, now she left me scarred (Yeah)
Now there's so many thoughts goin' through my brain (Yeah)
And now I'm takin' these shots like it's Novocaine, yeah

Ooh, I fall apart
Down to my core
Ooh, I fall apart
Down to my core
Ooh, didn't know it before
Surprised when you caught me off guard
All this damn jewelry I bought
You was my shorty, I thought

Never caught a feelin' this hard
Harder than the liquor I pour
Tell me you don't want me no more
But I can't let go

I don't wanna feel this
Changing, I can't stand it
My heart can't sleep this damn eve
And the way I feel can't stand it

Baby, I don't wanna feel this
Changing, I can't stand it
My heart can't sleep this damn eve
And the way I feel can't stand it

Baby, I don't wanna feel this
Girls, you make it hard for me
Girls, you make it hard for me
Girls, you make it hard for me

Girls, you make it hard for me
Girls, you make it hard for me
Girls, you make it hard for me

Ooh, I fall apart
Down to my core
You was my shorty, I thought

Ice keep pourin' and the drink keep flowin'
Try to brush it off, but it keep on goin'
Covered in scars and I can't help showin'
Whippin' in the foreign and the tears keep rollin'
Ice keep droppin' and the drink keep flowin'
Try to brush it off, but it keep on goin'
All these scars, can't help from showin'
Whippin' in the foreign and the tears keep blowin', yeah

Ooh, I fall apart
Down to my core
Ooh, I fall apart
Down to my core
Ooh, didn't know it before
Surprised when you caught me off guard




All this damn jewelry I bought
You was my shorty, I thought

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of "Falling Apart" describe a brokenhearted narrator who has been left with emotional scars after being betrayed by his girlfriend. He admits that she fooled him twice into a false sense of security and now he's left with a broken heart. He pours himself shots of Novocaine to numb the pain as he tries to cope with the anguish. He says that he's fallen apart down to his core, and he didn't know it before he was caught off guard by his girlfriend's actions. He feels that all the jewelry he bought for her was wasted, and he blames himself for not realizing that she wasn't the girl he thought she was. He's now covered in scars that he can't help showing, and he's forced to confront his emotions as they keep flowing.


The lyrics suggest that the singer is struggling to come to terms with the end of the relationship and the betrayal he feels from his girlfriend's actions. He's faced with the harsh reality of his situation as he's forced to confront his pain. The repetition of "Girls, you make it hard for me" shows that he's struggling to trust again after being hurt so badly. The chorus "Ooh, I fall apart down to my core" highlights the rawness of his emotions and the depth of his suffering. The use of metaphorical language, such as "covered in scars" and "whipping in the foreign," shows the singer is trying to visualize his pain to make sense of it.
