Fall Apart Lyrics

[Chorus]
And we say that we almost tried
We never really got the chance to say goodbye
But we don't wanna fall apart, no
No, we don’t wanna fall apart
When we laugh and it always shows
I never really think I'll ever let you go
But we don't wanna fall apart, no
No, we don’t wanna fall apart

[Verse 1]
Free my mind, baby
Waiting on a new salvation
In my mind, freedom is worth fighting for
I'm tryna start a new mind nation

[Pre-Chorus]
And then we go woo-ooh-ooh-ooh
I'm here sittin' old and I'm thinkin' 'bout the times I spent with you lately, ooh
And then we go woo-ooh-ooh-ooh
Now I got a long flight in the night of my life, quick, now I'm dazy, ooh-oh

[Chorus]
And we say that we almost tried
We never really got the chance to say goodbye
But we don’t wanna fall apart, no
No, we don’t wanna fall apart
When we laugh and it always shows
I never really think I'll ever let you go (No, we don’t wanna fall)
But we don't wanna fall apart, no
No, we don't wanna fall apart
[Verse 2]
Missing pieces, baby
We'll find our resolution someday
But there’s no one like you, baby
No one's gonna heal our heartbreak

[Pre-Chorus]
And then we go woo-ooh-ooh-ooh
I'm here sittin' old and I'm thinkin' 'bout the times I spent with you lately, ooh
And then we go woo-ooh-ooh-ooh
Now I got a long flight in the night of my life, quick, now I'm dazy
No, we don't wanna fall

[Chorus]
And we say that we almost tried
We never really got the chance to say goodbye
But we don't wanna fall apart, no
No, we don't wanna fall apart
When we laugh and it always shows
I never really think I'll ever let you go
But we don't wanna fall apart, no
No, we don't wanna fall apart

[Bridge]
Keep your calm, breathe, we don't wanna fall apart, no
No, we don't wanna fall apart
Keep your calm, breathe, we don't wanna fall apart, no
No, we don't wanna fall apart
Keep your calm, breathe, we don't wanna fall apart, no
No, we don't wanna fall apart
Keep your calm, breathe, we don't wanna fall apart, no
No, we don't wanna fall apart
[Chorus]
And we say that we almost tried (We almost tried)
We never really got the chance to say goodbye
But we don't wanna fall apart, no (We don't wanna fall apart)
No, we don't wanna fall apart (Fall apart)
When we laugh and it always shows
I never really think I'll ever let you go (Woah)
But we don't wanna fall apart, no
No, we don't wanna fall apart
And we say that we almost tried
We never really got the chance to say goodbye
But we don't wanna fall apart, no
No, we don't wanna fall apart
When we laugh and it always shows (Ooh, ooh)
I never really think I'll ever let you go
But we don't wanna fall apart, no
No, we don't wanna fall apart

What did Tones and I say about "Fall Apart"?
Genius Answer

It’s still really hard to talk about T. I tried to write a song that was about him and his personality, but I couldn’t, and I still can’t, even now. “Fall Apart” is observing from the outside and watching all my friends, when it happened, and looking at how we’d all fallen apart. I didn’t know how else to say it without using those words. And then watching everyone try and build back up and try to deal with the grief. He was the big brother, that one guy that everyone was just so in love with, and he was just gone. I wrote about how we can’t deal with it yet.
