Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
You've been running around, you've been running in cirkles.
Boy we, we need to speek,
'cause I'm feeling dizzy at lately, so dizzy my baby.
Now hey, you're stressing me,
and I can't focus through your pain, I think it's time we let it rain.
Oh I, I don't think you know,
that I've been soaking in your soul, I've been trynna read you mind but boy I'm hurting.
You make my heart fall apart.
you make my heart fall apart.
you make my heart fall apart,
I'm falling hard, I'm slipping.
You make my hear fall apart.
You make my heart fall apart.
You make my heart fall apart,
I'm falling hard.
Please, you're playing mean,
I've been wishing you'd see me, been fishing feelings.
Boy you, you keep it cool,
you pretend you don't miss me, pretending you're busy.
Now hey, I'm out of sound,
'cause I've been shouting at your walls, but you don't notice me at all.
Oh I, I have to know,
are we crushing baby, why are you not cryin'?
You make my heart fall apart.
you make my heart fall apart.
you make my heart fall apart,
I'm falling hard, I'm slippin'.
You make my hear fall apart.
You make my heart fall apart.
You make my heart fall apart,
I'm falling hard.
(You make my heart fall apart.
you make my heart fall apart.
you make my heart fall apart,
I'm falling hard, I'm slippin'.
You make my hear fall apart.
You make my heart fall apart.
You make my heart fall apart,
I'm falling hard.)
You make my heart fall apart.
you make my heart fall apart.
you make my heart fall apart,
I'm falling hard, I'm slippin'.
You make my hear fall apart.
You make my heart fall apart.
You make my heart fall apart,
I'm falling hard, I'm slippin'.

Some might not like it, but I really appreciate Volbeat mixing up English and Danish Into the Song.
Paul Green
It works well for them. For Evigt is (for me) their stand out track, and over the years I've created several new Volbeat fans by introducing them to that song.. and more than one of us have made a point of learning the meaning of the Danish meaning as we sing along.

Whos those some?
Because they clearly have bad taste if they dont like this
The Danish actually sounds better than the English honestly
Barry Cruickshank
I think it's just absolutely pure talent

Gigachad
I mean, Michael Poulsen is Danish, after all.

I don't understand all the negative comments wanting the old heavy volbeat and this and that. Can't we love both? Both are fantastic! I love the old gritty stuff but also love the positive vibes feel good stuff too! This song is phenomenal! Love anything volbeat does!

Thank you! Loving a band for their music is one thing but loving a band is another. All of it is so amazing.

I don't mind them putting this out and am not against people liking it, but it does sound a bit bland to me.
I feel like their previous slow songs (like for example "We" or "Cape of our Hero") had more of a way to stand out. This sounds (to me) like a generic pop rock/gospel song where Michael is invited as a guest singer.
That said, I'm a firm believer that we don't have to necessarily like everything our favorite groups put out, much less expect them to stop making the music they want to do. So, this song is not my cup of tea, but I wouldn't say Volbeat sucks now or they sold out.

Dislike. Go listen to Paramore!
