The post-hardcore/emo quartet This Means You formed in 2003 in Tel Aviv, Israel. Assi, Ben E., Ran and Ben H. all knew each other from high school and the local club scene.

In early 2006 after releasing their first self titled demo This Means You began performing in main venues throughout Israel. Performing side by side with internationally acclaimed bands such as Man Alive, Useless ID and Betzefer, This Means You were making a name of themselves as one of the driving forces in the Tel Aviv alternative music scene. Standing out in the local landscape, the four-piece group has since forged a wide range of influences to create their own unique sound.

During August 2007 after thorough touring, This Means You finally went into the studio to record their debut studio album “The Act”. Helming the project in the producers chair was Yotam Ben Horin, lead singer and bass player for Israel's punk rock pioneers Useless ID. Within the album, titled "The Act", lies the mix of the aggressive yet melodic sound that became synonymous to This Means You.

In combination with the polished pop-esque production of Ben Horin and yet without compromising their energetic hardcore punk influences and roots, “The Act” can be enjoyed by hardcore/screamo purists as well as the mainstream pop audience. The first single titled “The Bottle” was featured on the internationally distributed “PunkRock.co.il” compilation.

Falling apart
this means you Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Searching for hidden hints
Watching time goes by
Facing a void, I can't cut through
I'm left here as I am
Without a light at sight
My eyes go numb waiting for a sign

Falling apart your image is not enough

I can see right through you
Only a thread left, I think it's too late for you

The passage is too narrow
You are fading out (You cant cut through)
You are the aftermath of our mistakes
Doubt comes up again
Trust is broken, shattered on the ground

Falling apart your image is not enough
I can see right through you
Only a thread left, I think its too late for you

Genesis, I have to start erasing everything
Trust is broken, shattered on the ground

Nothing can stay the same I have to start erasing

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to "Falling Apart" by This Means You convey a sense of frustration and disappointment in a failing relationship. The song starts off with the singer feeling lost and disconnected, as they search for hidden signs and watch as time passes without any resolution. The image of a void that they can't break through illustrates their emotional state, feeling trapped and without hope. They feel numb and desperate for a sign or a glimmer of light.

The chorus emphasizes the singer's growing disillusionment with the person they are addressing. They claim that they can see through the other person's facade, that their image is not enough to maintain the relationship. The mention of a thread suggests that the connection between the singer and the other person is hanging on by a mere thread, close to breaking completely. As they state, it may be too late for the other person to repair the damage done.

The next verse highlights the growing distance between the two individuals. The passage being too narrow symbolizes the lack of room for them to maneuver and find a resolution. The fading out of the other person signifies their diminishing presence and importance in the singer's life. The reference to the aftermath of mistakes suggests that their current situation is the result of past missteps and errors. Doubt and broken trust further highlight the feelings of betrayal and disappointment.

The bridge speaks to the singer's need to move on and begin anew. They realize that nothing can remain the same and that they need to start erasing everything associated with the failing relationship. The repetition of trust being broken and shattered emphasizes the deep hurt and irreparable damage caused.

Overall, "Falling Apart" portrays the struggle of trying to hold onto a crumbling relationship, while also recognizing the need to let go and start over.
