I Fell Apart - Ricky Alone
I tried to stay together
I tried to be strong
But the weight of losing you
cooled me all alone
Every straw was heavy
Every word felt fake
I held on to pieces
that you didn't make
I walked through empty rooms
pretending I was fine
But shadows kept reminding me
that I'm no longer mine
I thought I could handle
the way you slipped away
But some breaks
don't heal with time or day
I fell apart
when you let go
I carried the pieces
no one will know
I fell apart
inside on some shame
I lost myself
and I'm not the same
I see your face in strangers
I hear your voice in songs
Everything around me
feels like where I went wrong
I try to fix the cracks
I try to mend the pain
Some things inside
can't be made whole again
I held the mask together
while my heart betrayed
The truth is I broke
the moment you stayed away
I fell apart
when you let go
I carried the pieces
no one will know
I fell apart
and I can't pretend
Some of God's infected just
met you been
If healing is a journey
I'm still at the start
Learning how to live
with a broken heart
I'll find my pieces
even if they're small
I fell apart
but I'll stand to it all
I fell apart
but I'll survive
I'll gather the fragments
and keep alive
I fell apart
but I'm still here
learning to breathe
even with fear
So if you see me
smiling
know what it conceals
I fell apart
but I'm learning how to heal
