Falling out of Place
Sunsleep Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Lost in doubt
On my own
You were the one that felt like home
And now the halls of my heart are barren and dark
Don't you lie to me darling, oh don't you lie, don't you lie
Won't you cry for me darling, oh won't you cry, won't you cry
But you won't pick up the phone
You don't know what you want to do
Now I'm lost and all alone
I feel my heart break
I never thought it'd be this way
Just want to see your face
Now I'm falling out of place
We were so strong at the start
Gave it all our all
And when the pieces fell apart
I tried to keep us together
While you left me in the dark
Don't have time for me darling,
Oh don't have time, you don't have time
Gave you all of my heart love, oh gave you all, I gave you all of me
I've tried to get through to you
But you won't pick up the phone
You don't know what you want to do
Now I'm lost and all alone
I feel my heart break
I never thought it'd be this way
Just want to see your face
Now I'm falling out of place
I'm falling out of place
Tell me, love
Did you feel the rush
When you led me on
And now you've had enough
Of a constant state when you wanted change
I've tried to get through to you
But you won't pick up the phone
You don't know what you want to do
Now I'm lost and all alone
I feel my heart break
I never thought it'd be this way
Just want to see your face
Now I'm falling out of place (I've tried to get through to you)
Now I'm falling out of place (I've tried to get through to you)
Now I'm falling, I'm falling out of place
The opening lines of "Falling Out of Place" by Sunsleep introduce a feeling of unexpected loneliness and isolation that undertones the entire song. The singer expresses how they've grown "stone cold" and are "lost in doubt," implying that they have become emotionally numb and possibly depressed. The following lyrics reveal that the one person who previously brought warmth and comfort to their heart is no longer present. The metaphor of the "halls of my heart" being "barren and dark" suggests a sense of emptiness and despair that stems from the absence of their loved one. The plea, "Don't you lie to me darling, oh don't you lie, don't you lie, won't you cry for me darling, oh won't you cry, won't you cry," further emphasizes the desperation in their voice as they beg for honesty and empathy.
As the song progresses, the singer describes attempting to reconnect with their loved one but being met with rejection. The line, "You don't know what you want to do" suggests that their partner is confused or indecisive about the relationship, leading to a feeling of abandonment and heartbreak for the singer. The repetition of "I never thought it'd be this way" followed by "just want to see your face" indicates a desire to keep the relationship intact despite the emotional turmoil. The chorus repeating the phrase "I'm falling out of place" reinforces the sentiment that the singer no longer feels like they belong and is experiencing a profound loss.
The final lyrics imply that the relationship faltered due to conflicting desires. The line "Of a constant state when you wanted change" suggests that the singer was content with the way things were, but their partner wanted something new, leading to a conclusion that neither person truly understood each other's needs.

I've grown stone cold
I've become emotionally numb
Lost in doubt
Unclear and unsure of what to do
On my own
Alone without the one who felt like home
You were the one that felt like home
You were the person who made me feel comfortable and safe
And now the halls of my heart are barren and dark
My heart feels empty and lonely
Don't you lie to me darling, oh don't you lie, don't you lie
Please be honest with me
Won't you cry for me darling, oh won't you cry, won't you cry
Please show me that you care
I've tried to get through to you
I've attempted to communicate with you
But you won't pick up the phone
But you won't hear me out or speak to me
You don't know what you want to do
You're confused and indecisive
Now I'm lost and all alone
I feel disoriented and isolated
I feel my heart break
I feel immense emotional pain
I never thought it'd be this way
I never imagined that we'd end up like this
Just want to see your face
I long to be in your presence
We were so strong at the start
Our relationship began with great strength and positivity
Gave it all our all
We put in maximum effort into the relationship
And when the pieces fell apart
And when the relationship started to disintegrate
I tried to keep us together
I attempted to salvage our relationship
While you left me in the dark
While you kept me uninformed and unaware of your intentions
Don't have time for me darling, Oh don't have time, you don't have time
You are too busy for me
Gave you all of my heart love, oh gave you all, I gave you all of me
I gave you my everything
Tell me, love
Ask you a direct question, my love
Did you feel the rush
Did you experience a sudden surge of emotions
When you led me on
When you misled me into believing that everything was alright
And now you've had enough
And now you're done with the relationship
Of a constant state when you wanted change
Of a relationship that was unchanging when you wanted something different
Now I'm falling out of place (I've tried to get through to you)
Now I'm lost and the relationship is not working out (I've tried to communicate with you)
Now I'm falling out of place (I've tried to get through to you)
Now I'm out of sync with the relationship and it's not working out (I've tried to communicate with you)
Now I'm falling, I'm falling out of place
Now everything is falling apart and I feel out of place
