Fall Apart by DCBROOKS - Zona

Lyrics

[Intro – Falsetto, distant echo FX]

Yeah…

You said forever, then faded like breath on glass

Now I’m left holdin’ what we never had…

---

[Verse 1 – Gentle falsetto drift]

You said I was safe in your arms (arms~)

Now I’m curled up, sleepin’ with scars

You made leavin’ look so easy

I’m stuck missin’ someone who don’t need me

Every photo's a punch to the chest

Still got your hoodie, still smells like the mess

I begged you to stay with my silence

Now I talk to the wall just to sit in the silence

---

[Pre-Chorus – Falsetto cracked and layered]

Built you a love I could barely afford

Gave you my all, now I'm the one ignored

Guess you just got tired of tryin'

And I just got good at lyin'... sayin' I'm fine

---

[Chorus – High falsetto, soft echoes, layered harmonics]

I fall apart like smoke through cracks

I still wait for a call that won’t come back

Swear I hear your name in every laugh

But it’s gone like the dreams we never had

I fall apart in motel lights

Still write your name in songs at night

If pain is art, I’ve framed it tight

But baby, you just let me die...

---

[Verse 2 – Quieter, near-whisper falsetto]

I trace our memories in dust and shame

Tryna find where the f**k I lost my name

Your voice still hums like a lullaby

But now it just makes me wanna cry

You said we were somethin’ real

Now I’m questionin’ if I ever could feel

You’re movin’ on, I’m stuck rewindin’

Each "I love you" now feels like lyin’

---

[Bridge – Soft layered falsetto, almost spoken]

I gave you stars, you gave me space

Now I stare at the sky, missin’ your face

I’m not angry, just breakin’ slow

Learnin’ how to let someone go...

---

[Chorus – Haunting falsetto, minimal instrumental]

I fall apart like smoke through cracks

I still wait for a call that won’t come back

Swear I hear your name in every laugh

But it’s gone like the dreams we never had

I fall apart in motel lights

Still write your name in songs at night

If pain is art, I’ve framed it tight

But baby, you just let me die...

---

[Outro – Fading falsetto, emotional fade-out]

I still keep your seat at the table

Still wear your ghost like a label

You ain’t comin’ back… I know

But damn… I wish you’d told me slow
