Without
Years & YearsCHAP Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

You're the first one, you're the champion
You're the tall one, you are halcyon
You don't belong to me, you're too far away
And everything falls apart when I try to say

You're enough, in love without me
So close your heart, you'll never find me
Oh, you can hate me now
'Cause I'll be gone
And I'll be with you or without

You can count wrongs, you can make it worse
How could I have known you're a universe
Follow the marks you left, feel the undertow
Or that you thought you knew it's so hard to hold

You're enough, in love without me
So close your heart, you'll never find me
Oh, you can hate me now
'Cause I'll be gone
And I'll be with you or without

Oh, you keep shivering into the night
I can let you hold me
And tell each other that we might survive
If we keep it going oh

You're enough, in love without me
So close your heart, you'll never find me
Oh, you can hate me now
'Cause I'll be gone




And I'll be with you or without
And I'll be with you or without

Overall Meaning

The song "Without" by Years & Years is a soulful, emotionally charged track that explores the theme of unrequited love. The lyrics describe a person who is deeply in love with someone who doesn't love them back. The first verse acknowledges the person's attraction to the other and how they idolize them as a "champion" and "halcyon", but ultimately feels like they are too far away to ever belong to them. The chorus repeats the phrase "you're enough, in love without me", which highlights the fact that the other person doesn't need the singer to be happy, and they are resigned to the fact that they will never find true love with them. The lyrics are contrasted with a haunting melody that evokes a sense of longing and pain.


The second verse explores the complexity of the other person's universe, and how the singer couldn't have known how intricate and hard to navigate it would be. The bridge shifts the focus to the physicality of the situation, with the singer acknowledging the other person's shivering in the night and the possibility of survival if they "keep it going".


Overall, the song is a poignant portrayal of the pain of unrequited love, and how one can still find a sense of peace even without the object of their affection.

If we continue to work on it.
