Fall Apart
Pur:Pur Lyrics

In Pur:Pur's song "Fall Apart," the singer is grappling with feelings of discontent and a longing for change. The first verse begins with the singer expressing their discomfort in their current situation. They feel like they have to suppress their beliefs and swallow them down, "pressing my faith to the roof of my mouth." They've realized that they don't belong where they are, "never thought I was meant for the south." However, they've managed to leave and find something valuable in a new place, "climbed out I came look what gold I have found. Limited cities can't drown." The singer seems to be acknowledging their dissatisfaction with their surroundings, but they're also noting how they've found success despite that.

In the chorus, the singer poses the question, "What if I let this all fall apart?" The repetition of this line suggests that they're considering it deeply. They're fantasizing about the idea of completely letting go of everything they know and stepping into the unknown. The second verse references two cities, Manhattan and Paris, which seem to be significant to the singer in very different ways. They dream of Manhattan, but they also feel a pull towards Paris and the Louvre. They wonder if they should try and do everything at once, "my fingers in one pie would do."

The chorus is repeated again, and then the singer asks a different question, "What if I just go be no one? Could you try and not get so much work done?" This is a more personal question, suggesting that despite finding success in new places, they're still feeling unfulfilled on a deeper level. They want to disappear, to not be weighed down by the expectations of others. The song then ends with the refrain "I fall apart," repeated six times. This repetition emphasizes the fragility and vulnerability present throughout the song, and gives the impression that the singer is still trying to grapple with their emotions.
