The song "Without" by Zero A.D. is a mix of two languages, English and Zulu, expressing painful feelings of a lover who is being left for someone else. The first verse in Zulu talks about seeing beautiful flowers on the roadside and waves to his friends while walking to meet his lover. He had approached her and had gotten her phone number, hoping to meet again soon. He feels they had a connection, and they would meet again. The chorus is in English, where the artist thanks his lover for being with him and staying by his side. But he feels that she's slowly losing interest in him, and her love is shifting towards someone else. He concludes that he can still live without her even though it hurts.
The artist continues to sing in Zulu in the second verse, asking his lover to open the door and let him in. He mentions that everything is okay, only for her to leave him for another. However, he maintains hope of reuniting with her in the future. In the chorus, he repeats the statements from the first chorus. He thanks his lover for staying with him, confesses her love's dwindling, and acknowledges the possibility of living without her.
