Behind The Song: Ryan Stevenson Shares The Heart Behind His Song “When We Fall Apart”

By Abby Carpenter | Uncategorized | 1 comment | 19 May, 2020 | 17

This week’s featured song story comes to us from Ryan Stevenson. We’re excited to share with you the story behind his song “When We Fall Apart.”

“I remember the last words my mom spoke to me. She said on her death bed in our last conversation, ‘don’t ever think that you need to have it all together. Don’t ever think that you need to fight back your tears because sometimes the only way we see clearly is when we look through our tears. Sometimes our greatest act of strength is really our weakness. It’s in our surrender. And sometimes the only way we heal is when we just let go, crumble and fall apart.’” – Ryan Stevenson

From the upcoming album Wildest Dreams.

“When We Fall Apart” Lyrics

You were 43 when you got the news Life will be changing, nothing we can do The clock is ticking now All I can think about Is knowing I have to move on without you somehow And I just can’t believe That you’re the one whose keeping it together As you hold my hand and say

It’s ok to cry It’s ok to fall apart You don’t have to try To be strong when you are not And it may take sometime to make sense of all your thoughts But don’t ever fight your tears ‘Cause there is freedom in every drop Sometimes the only way to heal a broken heart is when we fall apart

You ask me to sing Some songs that I wrote And I can barely speak Can barely play a note All my tears rush in Falling on my strings And make the sound of these progressions have a different ring And I hate to say goodbye Knowing this will be the last time we’re together As you close your eyes and say

It’s ok to cry It’s ok to fall apart You don’t have to try To be strong when you are not And it may take sometime to make sense of all your thoughts But don’t ever fight your tears ‘Cause there is freedom in every drop Sometimes the only way to heal a broken heart is when we fall apart

And you’ve got the gift of mercy Don’t ever think it’s strange Not a curse, but it is a blessing to feel other people’s pain And always love without condition And trust with all your heart There’s healing in the story of your scars

Well, it’s been awhile Since you’ve been gone Sometimes I still catch myself trying to call your phone All the hopes and dreams we used to talk about They’re still alive in me and I just hope I make you proud Now I’m your legacy And it’s your love still holding me together And I still hear you say

It’s ok to cry It’s ok to fall apart You don’t have to try To be strong when you are not And it may take sometime to make sense of all your thoughts But don’t ever fight your tears ‘Cause there is freedom in every drop Sometimes the only way to heal a broken heart is when we fall apart

    When we fall apart by Ryan Stevenson reminds me of what my father told me when my grandma passed. It was 3 years ago, I was 11 and I was so overwhelmed with the thought that my grandma had cancer and we would loose her. We were in the car about to go to church when it truly hit me, and my dad told me that it was ok to cry because it’s better to let it out then to keep it in. It just makes this song that much more special
