Never Fall Apart
Pale Sunday Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I can still feel those leaves at our street,
Breaking under our feet
We used to sing and feel the sun,
Holding us so warm

We were neighbors we were heroes
Join forever, this should never fall apart
And our life's seems pass so slow,
We should never grow old
Those golden seasons brand my life,
We just do it right

We were neighbors we were heroes
Join forever this should never fall apart

But the winter came on
At your house a move truck
Stayed all day long
And in your arms you carried
The little dog I named John




Inside the car you shed a tear
And just say a sweet goodbye

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Pale Sunday's song Never Fall Apart paints the picture of two neighbors who were once best friends and shared a beautiful bond that seemed unbreakable. The first verse illustrates the memories of their exciting childhood, how they used to stroll along their street, crushing leaves under their feet, singing and feeling the warmth of the sun. These nostalgic scenes reflect a time when everything in their world was perfect - devoid of any fear, anxiety, grief or pain.


The second verse, however, depicts how time flew by, and everything has changed. The singer wished that they had never grown old and wished that they had always stayed that way - kids with dreams and ambitions. The golden seasons of their youth marked an unforgettable memory that the singer treasures. They did everything right, and their future was bright.


But just like the leaves that fell and withered in the winter, they had to go through a similar phase of life where things became cold and lonely. The move truck that was parked in front of their neighbor's house represents a turning point in their friendship. They were moving away, and that moment is what the singer described as the time when everything fell apart. Saying goodbye to each other was heartbreaking and sad, and the fact that little John, the dog, was leaving with them made it even worse.
