Falling Apart

This life is falling apart
This mumble you hear is my heart
This pounding inside is my head
The constant beat of my wanting to be dead
Losing my family, we're falling apart
The taste of life on my tongue is tart
One thing after another breaks
From my heart, to my family
From my home, to our bank
This life is falling apart on me
