Fall To Pieces Lyrics

i looked away, then i looked back at you
you tried to say things that you can't undo
if i had my way, i'd never get over you
today is the day i pray that we'd make it through
make it through the fall
make it through it all

and i don't wanna fall to pieces
i just wanna sit and stare at you
i don't wanna talk about it
and i don't want a conversation
i just wanna cry in front of you
i don't wanna talk about it
cause i'm in love with you

you're the only one i'd be with til the end
when i come undone, you bring me back again
back under the stars, back into your arms

wanna know who you are
wanna know where to start
i wanna know what this means
wanna know how you feel
wanna know what is real
i wanna know everything, everything

i don't wanna fall to pieces
i just wanna sit and stare at you
i don't wanna talk about it
and i don't want a conversation
i just wanna cry in front of you
i don't wanna talk about it

and i don't wanna fall to pieces
i just wanna sit and stare at you
i don't wanna talk about it
and i don't want a conversation
i just wanna cry in front of you
and i don't wanna talk about it
cause i'm in love with you
i'm in love with you
cause i'm in love with you
i'm in love with you
i'm in love with you

Things I'll Never Say

you're the only one i'd be with til the end
when i come undone, you bring me back again
back under the stars, back into your arms

wanna know who you are
wanna know where to start
i wanna know what this means
wanna know how you feel
wanna know what is real
i wanna know everything, everything

i don't wanna fall to pieces
i just wanna sit and stare at you
i don't wanna talk about it
and i don't want a conversation
i just wanna cry in front of you
i don't wanna talk about it

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

THIS SONG SAVED US from seperating..i sang the first verse to my partner when our world was on the verge of collapse. he replied "you have the voice of an angel". the lyrics said exactly what i couldn't, i didn't want to talk about things anymore, my words all come out wrong and don't convey half of my message. i just wanted to cry in front of him for the first time in 5 yrs, i was taught that showing any emotion was a weakness and so i always kept mine hidden, but if i could be weak in front of him, let down my gaurd, admit i'm human and i make mistakes...i was asking him to pick me up...just in case i did fall to pieces...and he did just that. Seems to be a very powerful song that one.

I can't visualize Avril crying for some reason, but she does seem really solemn sometimes.

i agree with you, Incesa. this song totally describes everything i feel everyday. to me, it's powerful, not just some song with a catchy tune. "fall to pieces" is about being alone and the constant torture of having a crush. you want this person, you want to say everything you feel, but then you don't want this person to laugh in your face and take your heavy emotions lightly.
