Fall Apart
Twiztid Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

[Jamie Madrox]
I swallow razor blades and spit up blood
Cut out my heart and gave it to my love
I hung myself with an extension cord
And dangled high above the Ouiji board
I heard the wind through the trees and I made me scream
I'm wonderin' if it's real life or just another dream
I need somethin', someone
To help me with my brain because it's fallin' apart
I fall apart

[Hook]
I'm fallin' to peices and I don't know why
(It's all because) It's all because we're all afraid to die
(And if you think) And if you think about it, it'll eat you
>From the inside out 'til you don't know what to do


[Monoxide Child]
You fall apart!
I'm drinkin' gas, smokin' square after square
I'm lookin' for this place but I don't know where
I'm just a soul in the land of the lost
I feel the blood in my lungs when I cough
I cut my hands off in the dark and just sat there and bled
While the whole world fell apart inside of my head
I need somethin', someone
To help me with my brain because it's fallin' apart
I fall apart

[Hook]

[Jamie Madrox]
I cut my rib cage open with a, butcher knife
And open up the hole to show my life
I'm not the devil but your mama swear we're one and the same
And we didn't make it this way so we're not carryin' the blame
I've been down and out
I know what that's, all about

[Monoxide Child]
I need somethin', someone
Help me wit' my brain, help me wit' my brain
I need somethin', someone
Help me wit' my brain, help me wit' my brain
I need somethin', someone
Help me wit' my brain, help me wit' my brain

[Hook]

[Monoxide Child]
Jumped out a 20 story window today
I got back up and then I walked away
My head was screamin' for a Tylenol
Openned the bottle and I ate 'em all
My head was spinning, dazed and I need to relax
So where's my chainsaw, butcher knife, and motherfucking axe?!?
Somethin', someone
To help me wit' my brain 'cause it's fallin' apart
I need somethin', someone
To help me wit' my brain 'cause it's fallin' apart
I fall apart

[Hook]x2

[Jamie Madrox]x5
I keep fallin' apart




I never wanted to die
I keep fallin' apart

Overall Meaning

The song "Fall Apart" by Twiztid is a poignant piece that explores the mental struggles of the artists. The two rappers, Jamie Madrox and Monoxide Child, open up about their desperate need for help as they feel like their minds and lives are falling apart. Madrox speaks of swallowing razor blades, hanging himself with an extension cord, and carving open his ribcage with a butcher knife. He expresses the deep need for someone to help him with his brain as it's falling apart. Monoxide Child, on the other hand, talks about drinking gas and smoking cigarettes, feeling lost in the land of the lost, and cutting off his hands in the dark.

Through their lyrics, Twiztid shines a light on some of the darkest corners of the human experience, reminding listeners that even in our most desperate moments, there is still hope for healing and redemption.


Line by Line Meaning

I swallow razor blades and spit up blood
I am in a state of extreme pain and physical harm


Cut out my heart and gave it to my love
I gave everything I had to someone, but it wasn't enough


I hung myself with an extension cord
I am in a state of emotional turmoil


And dangled high above the Ouiji board
I am at a crossroads, unsure of which path to take


I heard the wind through the trees and I made me scream
The world around me is causing me distress


I'm wonderin' if it's real life or just another dream
I am questioning my reality


I need somethin', someone
I am in desperate need of help, but don't know where to turn


To help me with my brain because it's fallin' apart
My mental state is deteriorating, and I can't handle it alone


I fall apart
My life is unraveling before my eyes


I'm fallin' to peices and I don't know why
I am breaking down, but can't identify the cause


(It's all because) It's all because we're all afraid to die
The fear of death is causing our lives to fall apart


(And if you think) And if you think about it, it'll eat you
If you dwell on death, it will consume you


>From the inside out 'til you don't know what to do
It will take over your entire being, and leave you lost


You fall apart!
You are breaking down just like I am


I'm drinkin' gas, smokin' square after square
I am turning to self-destructive habits to cope


I'm lookin' for this place but I don't know where
I am lost and searching for direction


I'm just a soul in the land of the lost
I am struggling to find my place in the world


I feel the blood in my lungs when I cough
My physical and emotional pain is palpable


I cut my hands off in the dark and just sat there and bled
My pain is so great that I self-harm, and don't know how to stop


While the whole world fell apart inside of my head
My mental state is chaotic and unstable


I cut my rib cage open with a, butcher knife
I am willing to hurt myself to show others my pain


And open up the hole to show my life
I am willing to be vulnerable and honest about my struggles


I'm not the devil but your mama swear we're one and the same
I am misunderstood and judged unfairly


And we didn't make it this way so we're not carryin' the blame
We didn't choose our struggles, so don't blame us for them


I've been down and out
I have hit rock bottom mentally and emotionally


Jumped out a 20 story window today
I am at the point of wanting to end my life


I got back up and then I walked away
But something, perhaps hope, keeps me going


My head was screamin' for a Tylenol
I am in so much pain, I can barely function


Openned the bottle and I ate 'em all
I will do anything to make the pain stop, even if it's harmful


My head was spinning, dazed and I need to relax
My mental state is out of control and I need to find peace


So where's my chainsaw, butcher knife, and motherfucking axe?!?
I am willing to turn to violence to cope with my pain

Another song I feel like is underrated and not talked about much. Love how the rhymes and beat play off each other and the song itself tells a real story for most.

Jesse

I was about 13yrs old when I was walking through my trailer park and I seen a CD laying in the street... So I walk over and picked this album up. I had heard of icp at the time but not twiztid really. Maybe when I was younger.. but the CD was in perfect condition, I took it home, plugged my CD player in, dropped the disc in, and fell in love. This will always be in my top 5 albums of all time. This CD came to me and one of the best times it could have. Thank you guys. I'm almost 30 now (not til decent), and I still listen to every single song on this album every chance I get.

I was 13 when i found about all the juggalos
