The Fall
Stabbings Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I'm tangled and broken
Left scattered on the floor
It's useless now
These pieces they
Can never make make me whole
You wither
And you blister
I watch you burn and peel
It's not like you
Can save me
It's not like you even care

I'm finding it so hard to hold on

This is where it falls apart
This is where it falls apart
I feel helpless as my everything
Comes crashing down on me
This is where it falls apart
This is where it falls apart
I feel helpless as my fucking world
Comes crashing down
Crashing down on me

Wasted
Useless
Pointless
Scattered
Broken
Pointless
Wrinkled
Shattered
Withered

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to "The Fall" by Stabbings are a raw expression of emotional pain and helplessness. The opening lines "I'm tangled and broken/ Left scattered on the floor" set the tone for the rest of the song, which describes a situation where the singer feels like they've been shattered into pieces and can never be made whole again. The repetition of the word "pointless" emphasizes the futility of their struggle, as if they are resigned to their fate. The lines "You wither/ And you blister/ I watch you burn and peel/ It's not like you/ Can save me/ It's not like you even care" suggest a relationship where the other person is too preoccupied with their own problems to offer any support. The singer is left to face their pain alone and finds it increasingly difficult to hold on.


The chorus of the song serves as a kind of release valve for the intense emotions described in the verses. The repetition of the phrase "This is where it falls apart" is a reminder that sometimes things just don't work out, no matter how hard we try. The lines "I feel helpless as my everything/ Comes crashing down on me" express a sense of total overwhelm, where the singer's world is falling apart around them and they have no control over it. The repeated use of profanity in the line "I feel helpless as my fucking world/ Comes crashing down" emphasizes the intensity of the emotion being conveyed.


Overall, "The Fall" is a powerful and honest expression of pain and frustration. The use of repetition and strong language gives the song a sense of urgency and rawness that is hard to ignore.
