White Lies - As I Try Not To Fall Apart

[@MattyHalloween]

I can’t think of any other band over the last 10-12 years that I can count on to release consistently great music quite like White Lies. They know exactly who they are… and they give it to us every single time! Great song. Great band!

[@bout9times]

Came here to say EXACTLY this. This band never, ever disappoints. Always worth waiting for!

[@TheYusten]

White Lies to me got more poppy as their career progressed...Although I love everything they have done I still prefer them two first dark albums...Ritual especially.

[@sympathyforthedevil1553]

The band themselves have said of this song; “It’s about accepting vulnerability as a man and knowing it’s OK to be broken. There’s never been a more pressing time to spread the message that it’s OK to not be OK.”

[@VidraDeArgint]

White Lies is the most criminally underrated band, they've been consistently releasing stellar tracks for the past 12 years. What other recent band that you know of has kept its freshness and its style for so long?

This song is absolutely beautiful. It is the perfect song for those struggling with their own personal issues and feeling depressed. As soon as I heard it I felt like I found the song to destress to and feel like someone understands trying to keep yourself together through all your problems.

[@AnnMTL]

I can not agree more, been listening to this song on a loop, and I find comforting, especially after such a difficult time for everyone. It's a song we need.

[@etorresrodz]

THIS... I'm 34 and I can say for sure 2022 has been the most incredibly difficult year for me... 2021 didn't help either. The song makes me feel less alone when I try my effing ass off to get out of bed and be a functional adult while wanting to cease to exist. Even the image of McVeigh sitting around letting time pass him by (the sand) without moving... mate... I felt like that for 3 entire months. I'm in the same point as the video, getting out of the chair everyday, dusting myself off, getting ready. This song in particular makes me feel hopeful, maybe tomorrow I'll find my way.

Lyrics: Am I a faulty kind of man so tender in the heart? Are clues embedded in my hands, a horoscope of cards No, I’m no special grain of sand or undiscovered star If there’s a great and holy plan I’d rather have no part Ain’t that the way, ain’t that the way You always unwind my head, unmake the bed like Sunday Ain’t that the way, ain’t that the way You get me talking to the dead and questioning if I’m alive at all Why every morning waking up Must I try not to fall, must I try not to fall apart? You take me in your grateful arms And I try not to fall, oh I try not to fall apart It’s not the way a man like me behaves It’s not the way the world would have me play my part Then why does every fiber shake As I try not to fall apart, as I try not to fall apart? Am I a lone unlucky man, no shimmer to my soul? Am I a spindle wound to tight, a fraction of a whole No, I’ve no party tricks, my hand is empty as a vault If there’s a charge, oh then I’ll stand and do the time for every fault Ain’t that the way, ain’t that the way You always unwind my head, unmake the bed like Sunday Ain’t that the way, ain’t that the way You get me talking to the dead and questioning if I’m alive at all Why every morning waking up Must I try not to fall, must I try not to fall apart? You take me in your grateful arms And I try not to fall, oh I try not to fall apart It’s not the way a man like me behaves It’s not the way the world would have me play my part Then why does every fiber shake As I try not to fall apart, as I try not to fall apart? Ain’t that the way, ain’t that the way You always unwind my head unmake the bed like Sunday Ain’t that the way, ain’t that the way You get me talking to the dead and questioning if I’m alive at all Why every morning waking up Must I try not to fall, must I try not to fall apart? You take me in your grateful arms And I try not to fall, oh I try not to fall apart It’s not the way a man like me behaves It’s not the way the world would have me play my part Then why does every fiber shake As I try not to fall apart, as I try not to fall apart?

Deep music. The message of the song is introspective. It asks us who we are and whether that meets the expectations of others. The lyrics make me reflect. I cried a little when I listened to it, it touched the deepest part of my heart. Only art can do that.

White lies always comin to DELIVER. They continue to prove that they ain't lettin up anytime soon. You can tell they've found their groove that just comes naturally and I'm so happy the music has matured with them in the BEST way possible. No matter the popularity they gain, they will forever be underrated. I think all of us that have been along for the ride since TLML can agree with me on that.

[@CulperCast]

To all the day ones! What a ride it's been! First time I heard them I was in 9th grade in 2009, To Lose My Life album. I have been there every release since.
