[Intro]
mm-mm
barely holding
barely breathing
[Verse 1]
I keep smiling like I'm okay
keep saying "I'm fine" every day
but the cracks are getting harder to hide
and I’m getting tired
the house gets quiet
my thoughts get loud
every little thing keeps dragging me down
I try to sleep but my head won't stop
spinning around
[Pre-Chorus]
everybody sees the version of me
that survives
but nobody sees me breaking at night
[Chorus]
I'm falling apart at the seams
thread by thread unraveling
trying so hard not to bleed
through the skin they all can see
and I hate how nobody knows
how close I am to letting go
cause I still show up
still pretend
while I'm falling apart again
[Post-Chorus]
oh-oh
falling apart again
yeah-yeah
but nobody sees it
[Verse 2]
some days I don’t recognize
the girl looking back through my eyes
she looks exhausted
she looks lost
like she's carrying too much
and maybe I got too good
at hiding pain inside pretty words
cause everybody hears the song
but not how much it hurts
[Pre-Chorus]
I keep stitching myself together
just enough to survive another day
[Chorus]
I'm falling apart at the seams
piece by piece underneath
every memory cuts too deep
every lonely night destroys me
and I hate how I still reach out
for people that might let me down
still hoping someday
someone stays
long enough to make me feel safe
[Bridge]
I don't wanna be this heavy
don't wanna cry over everything
don't wanna feel abandoned
every time somebody leaves
but hurt changes people
and now I don't know
how to stop expecting goodbye
from everybody close
[Final Chorus]
I'm falling apart at the seams
but somehow still standing here
heart bruised black and blue
still trying to be loved through it
and maybe that's the saddest thing
even after everything
there's still a part of me
begging not to be left behind
[Outro]
mm-mm
barely holding
(still holding)
mm-mm
falling apart
at the seams
Beexii
