Falling To Pieces

by Nicki Kris

/

about

“Falling to Pieces” is a response to the tragic event at Pulse in Orlando. It is a message of mourning for the victims and their families, but also serves as a warning to the shooter that this vicious act won’t break us, tear us down, or make us “fall to pieces.”

All proceeds from the iTunes sales of the song were to be donated to the OneOrlando Fund, however, the fund is no longer accepting donations. In light of this, we have selected another charity to receive ongoing donations from the sales of the song

“This tragedy will not define us, but will bring us closer together”

lyrics

Lost in my head
keep thinking about what you've done
It's really hard to smile could you have done this to your own child
And I don’t even know why I have no words to describe
How this makes me feel, but I want you to know that I've got the will of steel

I’m not falling to pieces, though I’m battered and bruised
I’m not falling to pieces or broken and used
I’m not falling to pieces, not dazed or confused
I’m not falling to pieces over you

Letting go, of all of this hate I feel inside
Let me tell you, no I won’t, I won’t let you contain my pride
I won't let this define me we've come too far to just give in
Ignorance is the enemy of peace no I’m not gonna let you win

I’m not falling to pieces, though I’m battered and bruised
I’m not falling to pieces or broken and used
I’m not falling to pieces, not dazed or confused
I’m not falling to pieces over you

Bullets and flames you think you own this game
Fear of our voices we use as instruments of change
I will keep fighting through it all
I will keep breaking down these walls

I’m not falling to pieces, I’m not battered and bruised
I’m not falling to pieces or broken and used
I’m not falling to pieces or dazed and confused
I’m not falling to pieces over you

I’m not falling to pieces, I’m not battered and bruised
I’m not falling to pieces or broken and used
I’m not falling to pieces or dazed and confused
I’m not falling to pieces over you
