Lisa Loeb - She's Falling Apart Lyrics






They pull up their chairs to the table
She stares at the food on her plate
At the toast and the butter
Her father and mother, she pushes away

And they rise in the morning
And they sleep in the dark
And even though nobody's looking
She's falling apart

She gets home from school too early
And closes the door to her room
There's nothing inside her
She's weak and she's tired of feeling like this

And they rise in the morning
And they sleep in the dark
And even though nobody's looking
She's falling apart

They call her for dinner, she makes up a reason
She looks at her arms and she rolls down her sleeves
And her mother is starting to see through her lies
And last night her father had tears in his eyes

And they rise in the morning
And they sleep in the dark
And even though nobody's looking
She's falling apart

And we rise in the morning
And we sleep in the dark
And even though nobody's looking
She's falling apart

Lisa Loeb She's Falling Apart Comments
  1. R.... E....

    I have had EDs for many years i first had binge eating disorder , then atypical anorexia , then turned to Bulimia and then back to binge eating disorder and recently this month was rediagnosed with Atypical anorexia

    Its a long chronic battle

  2. J.... H....

    I wish I wasn't Anorexic

  3. C.... N....

    I’m 14 y|o
    My cw is 109 lbs
    My gw is 99 lbs

  4. S.... D....

    Those of you, wanting to be small and "pretty", it's not worth it. You are beautiful. You are as you were meant to be. Being small, means being ridiculed, people asking why you starve yourself when you don't, calling you anorexic, weak, dainty. It's not worth the scars, the hangovers, the highs. Please, just be yourselves, don't be what somebody else wants you to be.

  5. c.... r....

    yap so me

  6. M.... D....

    if only my parents cared like her's did

  7. s.... d....

    ...I'm gonna post a video on cutting

  8. c.... G....

    at least she has a family who cares i have nothing
    i hope i die soon that would be good !!!!!!

    c.... G....

    no it won't killing never good plus don't or else I will have to ask why this precious cinnamon bun was taken too soon

  9. x.... P....

    I'm in the 200s....... and I'd love to lose weight. but all my guy friends plus my bf love fat girls ❤ so I feel really good about myself. they said fat girls are better to cuddle with and they don't want to cuddle bones..... so I feel really confident.

  10. J.... p....

    this song fits me so much idk what to do any more

    J.... p....

    Jackie peeler same

  11. I.... j....

    I'm not hating on this song, but I hate the stereotype that it's only girls have eating disorders (Bulimia and Anorexia etc) and self-harm. Urg it's so irritating.

    I.... j....

    Phan Boy Padilla-Hecox the songs always have girls. because it's hard to make a sad song about a guy. girls are easier to write about. plus, if you haven't realized, these songs have owners so most likely the girls that write them are writing it a out themselves. that's why it's always about girls.

    I.... j....

    Phan Boy Padilla-Hecox *about

    I.... j....

    Phan Boy Padilla-Hecox guys normally don't write sad songs about themselves so it's always about girls. there is no stereotype.

    I.... j....

    This song isnt stating only women feel this way but its written by a woman likely about herself or someone she knows...dont take offence. Both men and woman deal with these issues.

    I.... j....

    And also what i hate is that you really are sick with ana and mia if you weigh like 80 or 70 pounds . You still can be sick even if you're 200 pounds or more that's why i hate some ana/mia song that they say This person is now very sick and is 80 pounds.

  12. B.... P....

    this is me all the time I am a very suicidal but there is this one girl who really cares about and if it wasn't for her I wouldn't be here.

    B.... P....

    Brandon Paredes same

    B.... P....

    Stay strong guys I love you

    B.... P....

    Same expect for very suicidal I don't cut myself I just think about killing myself only and If my best friend which I totally have crush on didn't become my friend 10+ years ago I would of been dead a long time ago

  13. N.... D....

    this song means so much to me. i feel so invisable sometimes, and it's like every cry for help gets drowned out in the crowd so i just stoped calling out. i can sing this song word for word inside and out.

    N.... D....

    The Dork Lord I feel the same

  14. S.... R....

    To all of you I care!

  15. L.... T....

    Hey look it's me!

  16. J.... ....

    at the weight 88 I doubt that as a female you could support a baby.
    now if you're obese or overweight by medical standards for your age and how tall you are then lose weight the healthy way,go on a diet and exercise.
    and if you're unhappy with how you look at the right weight lose one or two pounds but please don't go overboard to where it's unhealthy

  17. A.... G....

    I have anorexia nervosa

  18. M.... P....

    I am 13 5,4 140 pounds and I'm starving myself .... I don't eat breakfast or lunch or dinner ..... if I eat it's something tiny, I say that I had already ate if someone asks even if I haven't eaten in days

    M.... P....

    +Maya Price I'm here for u too

    M.... P....

    +Leah Wallace same here. My hangout it Brit Starr

    M.... P....

    Im deciding on resorting to that, Maya price

    M.... P....

    Maya Price Hey Have Things Gotten Any Better?

  19. �.... ....

    I just started to cry because the parents of the girl in the song care so much for her and mine don't.

    �.... ....

    +CharChar Panda I care

    �.... ....

    i'm sure they do care about you. sometimes parent act like they don't. but you are their blood and deep down they do care about you.

    �.... ....

    I mean I know my mom cares, but my dad doesn't after all bad things happend

    �.... ....

    My mom and dad would just shrug it off if i killed myself lolol ik bc once i slit my wrists and they just told me to slop lying down skssks

  20. K.... V....

    please follow my instagram page @metal_barbie_doll

  21. M.... R....

    I've noticed on YouTube, there are songs supporting the girls who weren't necessarily skinny that tried to lose weight to feel better about themselves but ending up hurting themselves and realizing there perfect just the way they are....

    But what about the girls who are naturally really skinny. Who can't gain weight and get hurt for it. I mean those girls need the same type of support. I mean I'm one of those girls and I can guarantee you, I don't get any support. People are constantly saying,"Eat a sandwich," or asking us,"Are you anorexic?" That hurts us. It hurts us just as it hurt being called fat.

    Yes, both skinny/fat-chubby girls go through the same pain. It's bad how society changes the way we feel about our bodies writhing seconds. Nobody really knows what each individual person goes through. Many are great actors and they keep up the lying until they honestly can't take it anymore. Lots of us have thought about commit suicide. I'm not gonna lie, I have. Don't do it.

    M.... R....

    +Leah Wallace i turn 13 in a few days i weigh 84 pounds i have been 84 pounds since i was 11 i look average weight tho ...i would love to be called skinny ...

    M.... R....

    Malita Rosa well cuz skinny girls hardly get bullied cuz they are skinny and pretty. so theres no songs for them cuz they normally dont have a deadly eating disorder.

    M.... R....

    Malita Rosa actually I'm the same. I would get called anorexic people would say 'do u even eat?' And actually I became so used to being the girl 'who doesn't look like she eats' that I felt a need to keep it up, so I starved myself because I felt like that's what people wanted me to do and if I didn't do that they would hate me I now suffer from anorexia. It's hard because the worst thing is they mean it as a compliment like BITCH NO calling someone a mental illness is not a compliment that's like saying if I said someone had depression it's a compliment it's fucking heartbreaking

    M.... R....

    I'm 14, im just under 5ft and i weigh 5.11-5.12 and a half. I've been called anorexic and bulimic, I've had people fretting over me, I've been force-fed. I've been told to "just eat" by teachers, and I've never once been able to wear skimny jeans without them falling down to my hip bones which protrude from my body. I've been called gollum, I've been called dobby, I've been told that i could be hospitalised. I'm medically underweight and can count my ribs without sucking in, i can grab my ribs from underneath and i have never once voluntarily worn a shirt without a jumper because the sheen material showcases that my arms are just bone. I always have an excuse to not swim in class and when i had to for primary, i had my towel around me until i got into the pool. I bruise easily and i get cold in the summer. Nothing ever fits me and i hate my body but hey... "people would *kill* to be as skinny as me!" just look at my non-existent waist! My dainty little wrists! Oh wouldn't you just die to have my figure!? Im so lucky, i should be grateful! I'm 'fit'! I used to eat for fun. After that the thought of food made me gag for so long that i went ages slowly getting skinnier if possible, i still can't eat a full meal and i haven't done in weeks, if not months. I don't know why, but i know that i love food, i think i shrunk my stomach? I got very distracted here but i don't want to waste the amount i wrote that might have made sense so i am so sorry, please ignore me.

    M.... R....

    That's not what this is about. This song is about a mental illness named anorexia nervosa. If you want to post about how sad it is to be skinny, go ahead, but don't do it here.

  22. g.... a....

    I'm such a fat worthless girl , I've lost weight
    Because I'm starving my self but I just binged eating I need to die no body wants me every body hate me my parents hates me too I've lost my best friend why am I a live ?! I don't deserve to live

    g.... a....

    thats not true, belive you are something to someone, everyone finds someone who cares people who have committed suicide didnt wait long enough to see that someone comes into everyones life. it gets better, best of luck in life ♥

    g.... a....

    Your beautiful don't starve yourself you can beat it

    g.... a....

    +Leah Wallace What about me???

  23. n.... h....

    No needs to lose weight you guys and girls are perfect the way you are

  24. S.... ....

    I'm anorexic and have been starving myself for 2 months and I'm too weak to even talk

  25. G.... ....

    i'm 15, ang weight 55kg and i'm 1,52 tall, so pretty short. My goal is at least 45

  26. A.... M....

    Ya posting. Ur guys weights and stuff is triggering but for the people saying it's triggering....this song is triggering to so why are you here hmm...??

    A.... M....

    Adena Montanez because sad songs like this help some of us. we have different ways of dealing with stuff. mine is to sing and listen to depressing songs.

  27. e.... c....

    I love the song

  28. M.... C....

    For all of you saying "Please stop posting weight goals, its triggering." Why are you on songs like these? The songs are triggering too..

    M.... C....

    I think they are saying for other people maybe? I don't know

  29. M.... S....

    She's falling apart 😢

  30. J.... S....

    13 and a tenth year old girl, 5 foot 2 inches, 96.7 pounds. Wishing she could be a perfect 88 pounds.

    J.... S....

    you are at an amazing weight for your height! don't listen to what anyone says or what the media tries to influence you towards, it doesn't matter what you look like. I understand you want to be thin. I understand it being someone who has had a eating disorder for a while. it will be okay.

  31. S.... R....

    "even tho nobody's looking she's falling apart"

  32. R.... E....

    "She looks at her arms & she rolls down her sleeves" 

    R.... E....

    Done that my whole life

  33. O.... n....

    I am 13 and weigth 138lbs i hate my body i start vomiting last 2 mounths and now i going to stop eating too . I just wanth to be perfect :'(

    O.... n....

    please don't do this to yourself. please, if you want to see beautiful just look in the mirror. look in your eyes, look at yourself and tell yourself you are beautiful until you believe. everyone who tries to hurt themselves to be pretty just needs to get help because they're are people out there who love you and it hurts us to see you punish yourself. please

    O.... n....

    I'm 13 too and I weigh 97lbs without doing anything to my body.My mom did get worried though because most of my friends were over 100lbs. So when we went to the doctor she said I'm the perfect weight for my body shape.So it all depends on your body shape.Be comfortable in your own skin and stay confident or you will get over weight.

    O.... n....

    don't do it! I know it's hard but please don't do it

  34. e.... m....

    Now I weigh 120 :/ I've started purging and now my goal weight is even lower.. It's 88lbs but my bf won't let me... Thanks Anthony for actually being there for me I love you soo much

    e.... m....

    @emilee mccormick ugh he is such a jerk he can't just make you feel better and leave out of your life.Girl, your gonna find the right guy for you that will make you feel good and will always be there.

    e.... m....

    @Glitter Starbucks i have a new bf, me and him have been together for 2 months and 2 days, my longest relationship, but again, its long distance, i just got done skyping him, hes recording for youtube, then calling me again, im really happy with him, and i have nothing to do with my ex anymore, or his best friend

    e.... m....

    Hi Emilee! I don't know you.. But I want to help as best I can. Let me start by saying that your body is a beautiful, wondrous temple. She is magnificent, strong, sexy, amazing. Your body is far more than its external appearance, and so are you. You are loved, you are kind, sweet, interesting, loyal, and lovely. Nobody cares about the size of your thighs or waist. Seriously. They love you exactly as you are. Your body allows you to run, make love, cook, walk, dance, roll in grass, swim in oceans, create babies. You are magnificent, exactly as you are.

    e.... m....

    Hello are you still there the internet cares

    e.... m....

    i weigh 90 pounds but i wanna be 76 pounds... ah

  35. C.... ....

    Please can everyone stop posting their weight/goals on here please. It's making it very hard and it's triggering to a lot of people.

    C.... ....

    These videos are triggering too...

    C.... ....

    Then why the fuck are you here?

  36. e.... m....

    im 12 i weigh 118 and i still want to lose a little i never really purged i dont eat breakfat i dont eat lunch usually i just decide to eat fruit for dinner i wanna weigh near 100

    e.... m....

    Please don't loose weight I'm 14 and I weigh 95 lbs...you'll be unhappy. Eat fruit yes but you should eat a good way to loose weight is to exercise.

    e.... m....

    emilee mccormick if you are in the 100s, dont lose weight. because if you get to under 100, they will hospitalize you and stick a tube down your throat, forcing you to eat. they don't let you go anywhere by yourself.

  37. D.... ....

    bby you're not fat you're perfect to me please don't loose any more weight please eat at least a safe food for me? your beautiful don't let anyone ever tell you otherwise i'm so glad you're still alive <3

  38. K.... P....

    Your not fat by no means. Ur beautiful don't listen to what other people say they r just jealous of Ur beauty. I weigh 137 pounds and I'm fat and ugly but my bf always tells me that I'm beautiful but its very hard to believe that when Ur bullied. I cut all the time I'm anorexic

  39. G.... N....

    6years and bulimia for 4 and I m in and out of hospitals and support groups and everything and have been self harming for 4 years and I'm 13 and I hate myself and I'm 13. And I weigh 45 pounds and I'm fat...

  40. G.... N....

    I have been battling anorexia for 6 yet

  41. A.... N....

    Making comments like " please stop" is just irrational and shows how little people know about people like us. We don't control it. Perfection is what we strive for. But we can't control it. Maybe you should consider that. Oh. And 5'6 145 pounds. I will lose more.

  42. T.... G....

    I'm crying right now, isn't that ridiculous? The part about her parents broke me. I imagine my family. God... my dad.

  43. E.... ....

    In this moment, I'll really like to help all of yours, if you want help, you can count with me ok?? Please remember you all are valuable no matter what because you are princesses of God and if you need to loose weight, go with a nutriocionist so you can loose weight in a healthy way and just the really necessary.

  44. A.... F....

    I'm 16 years old , 5''4 and 109 lbs. I hate it!!! Need to be skinner :(

  45. S.... J....

  50. A.... ....

    I'm 12. 5 feet tall and 85 pounds... I hate myself. I binge and purge... I just want to be thin. My dream perfect weight is 70-65 pounds... That would be perfect. I'm done being fat.

  51. J.... R....

    A friend of me has the same weight, and I really think she's beautiful! She is proud on herself and just like that everybody likes her. There are so many people how can love you right the way you are, you should eat how you want, and I guess there are many people who loves you, no matter how you look :) (And I also think 175 is a weight where you can look awesome ^-^ )

  52. c.... ....

    Im 12 and 175 pounds
    1 month ago I didnt do anything about my weight but now I eat a lot less and purge after dinner everyday, I feel so fucked up it's unbelievable.
    I still have lost next to nothing and from tomorrow I'm officially bot eating, I will lose this weight, whatever it takes...

  53. F.... R....

    Honey don't do that, eating nothing or purging is harsh on your body and on your personal image. YOU ARE BEAUTIFUL!!!

  54. F.... R....

    I know what you mean, it sucks bad but then I look at her and I remember that everyday is one day closer to the day I wont see her again. And I hug and kiss her and tell her i love her because for now I have the chance.

  55. T.... S....

    i feel excatly the same way love.

  56. L.... ....

    Just had a fight with my mom. She doesn't understand me. It is so hard. I love her. I love her more than anyone else in the world, but it's so hard to live this way. I can't take it.

  57. S.... M....

    All y'all's weight goals are very triggering...please stop..

  58. r.... ....

    Please go get help, you should not be treated that way. Stay strong and never give up :)

  59. r.... ....

    Please continue eating, I know its hard and you hate yourself but I can assure you that you are beautiful and worth so much. Not eating will only get you in the hopital, away from everyone who cares about you. Continue eating and stay strong :)

  60. S.... ....

    i am age 16. I weigh 175lbs and my goal is 115. I purge but now i am official done eating anything.

  61. L.... J....

  70. H.... D....

    Anorexia has ruined my life.

  71. J.... D....

    even if your mum doesn't care, there are people that do, you are perfect, always remember that

  72. A.... S....

  73. L.... F....

    don't worry, your perfect just the way you are. The true beauty people have is what most try to hide. Their true selves, because they fear the judgment of others... and the world misses out on their very special beauty no one but them could give.

  74. i.... ....

    I can relate to this song exept for the parents part all my mom sees me as is a maid and a babysitter and all my stepdad sees me as is his personal punching bag and a helpless little girl that he can sexually harass day after day, i dont know what to do anymore.....:( i feel like if im perfect my mom will finally care and even though nobodys looking im falling apart/3

  75. J.... J....

    @coloradogirl6 niether have i :( actually, todays my 3rd... i havent had anything to drink either. :'(

  80. M.... B....

    She's falling apart. . .<3

  81. M.... P....

    I've been through this twice. Don't let it kill you. The reason I started to eat again (still very small portions) was because I went to the kitchen and I got an orange and I put it in front of me. I tried to eat it. But my body rejected it. I went to the garge fridge to get a bottle of water and when I was walking back inside my eyes got super heavy and I was dizzy. I started crying and my mom was freaking out. Luckily I didn't pass out. We need to eat...

  82. w.... ....

    Love,love,love!! Xxx

  83. K.... ....

    That Describes My Teenage-Hood Life to a tea, -Sighs- <3
