I can't win, I can't reign
I will never win this game
Without you, without you
Brown eyes stared up at a dark ceiling while their owner thought. He decided he couldn't take it anymore. He couldn't take "just friends" anymore, best friends in fact.
I am lost, I am vain,
I will never be the same
Without you, without you
It feels like a piece of his heart is missing. He can't live like he used to. This feeling is becoming unbearable; something he couldn't ignore. His feelings grew stronger every single day.
I won't run, I won't fly
I will never make it by
Without you, without you
But what if he left? He would never be able to live without him. It would be impossible, something that he couldn't even think of without having to blink back tears. If he left, he couldn't live on.
I can't rest, I can't fight
All I need is you and I,
Without you, without you
On the other hand, he couldn't go on without telling him. It's killing him inside, the guilt, the secret thoughts, everything. He just needed to be with him, feel his lips up against the other's, feeling the softness, the sparks, the passion.
Oh oh oh!
You! You! You!
Without...
You! You! You!
Without...you
His heart told him to tell the other man while his brain told him to not. Telling another man you love him is completely wrong. A man loving another man in general is frowned upon, his brain scream. While his cliché, mushy side scream, "If you love him, go get him!" His heart and brain were at war and it was going to be a nasty fight.
Can't erase, so I'll take blame
But I can't accept that we're estranged
He decided he has to tell him. He can't take anymore of the sleepless nights, the lying, the jealousy. He needs to tell him. Fuck his brain, fuck people who are homophobic, fuck "normal" people, fuck the thoughts that are against it. This is what he needs to do.
Without you, without you
I can't quit now, this can't be right
I can't take one more sleepless night
Without you, without you
It's sunny out now. He has to get up, wake him up and tell him. He needs to steal one kiss from those soft pink lips. He can't back out of this. He has to man up and tell him his feelings.
I won't soar, I won't climb
If you're not here, I'm paralyzed
Without you, without you
He was waiting. Waiting for him to say something. Courage. That's what he needed. It seemed to run all out when he entered the room. He opened his mouth to say it, say something that he's been waiting to say for five years. Five long years of biting his tongue and now he can't even speak.
I can't look, I'm so blind
I lost my heart, I lost my mind
Without you, without you
The words slipped out of his mouth, slipped off of his tongue, slipped so that he heard. He heard the truth. The supposed ugly truth that shouldn't be. He sat straight up, frozen because of the shock.
Oh oh oh!
You! You! You!
Without...
You! You! You!
Without...you
He braced himself. He braced himself for the yelling, the punching, the ridicule, the disgusted look. He braced himself for everything negative, not even thinking about the positives. He was always the optimistic one of the duo.
I am lost, I am vain,
I will never be the same
Without you, without you
Without...you
He was still frozen in shock when he opened his eyes. No movement since it slipped. Maybe he could convince him it was all just a sick joke. But he didn't get a chance too. His lips were covered.
