Five Reasons To Fall Apart - Lyrics

by Areebah
(Karachi)

Not so very long ago

I’d count your footsteps when you’d go

And sculpt my heart to fit your palm

Welcome you back with open arms



But times have changed, and u have changed

My source of strength is very strange

I’ll always miss what I can’t find

I’m struggling to leave you behind



I killed the person you passed by

I learnt to hide it when I cry

From broken shards I built a life

When once again I said goodbye

The misery a friend can bring

I hope you never feel this sting

I don’t want any sympathy

I’m living with an altered me



I thought you’d get under my skin

You used to be my medicine

We could have healed if you had stayed

Still you forsook a promise made



So times have changed, and I have changed

This irony is very strange

You’re gone for good you’re on my mind

I’m struggling to leave you behind



I killed the person you passed by

Who told you I’m yours to defy?

And though I fear how I will feel

I’ll face you I will meet your eye

I fought my pride I felt your hurt

I hung onto a whispered word

I’m smiling at your apathy

I’m living with an altered me



I walked this tunnel saw no light

My love for you, a futile fight

Tomorrow we’ll be strangers yet

Today deep down you know who’s right



And I don’t need to ask you why

The end, oh yeah its time to fly

I know that twinge of regret but

I can’t forgive you if I try

With five reasons to fall apart

I’d still have gone back to the start

Don’t turn this way, don’t try to see

I’m living with an altered me
