(Can’t) Keep It Together Songtext
von Black Dresses

If everything fits into place
Seamlessly pieced together in the most terrible way
I couldn′t keep it together, I couldn't make it last
I couldn′t prove I was good, I wonder if anybody could
I can't keep it together, nothing is meant to last for that long
But it doesn't make me feel better to put it in a stupid song
I wonder if life is all about just falling apart
And painfully becoming something else

Breaking down inside every day
Another day of hoping for something that I can′t say
Love, confusion, hopelessness, pain
Just falling through a thousand different lives of the same thing


I′m a person inside a person inside a girl
I used to be a million different things
A million different dreams and hopes
But now I'm nothing
Splintered, fighting for control
Inside a shattered soul staring blankly
Frightened and all alone, still moving forward
Broken down from everything
Did I do the right thing?
I wish I had the strength to be everything to everybody
I don′t know what I need to be
Hopeless dreaming, please take care of me
I know there's no more place for me
These ruined lives inside me scream

I couldn′t keep it together
I couldn't make it last
I couldn′t keep it together
But it's not that bad
