My heart is saying so
I know this shouldn’t happen
Life seems so funny
I also love that person
How did we end up like this, being so close

Should I honestly tell the truth?
I don’t want to lose to you

🎵 Song Meaning & Interpretation
The lyrics poetically convey a heartbreaking dilemma and silent rivalry between two lifelong friends who unexpectedly fall in love with the exact same person. Acknowledging the irony and pain of the situation, neither is willing to back down or sacrifice her own feelings because the individual is simply too precious to give up. The song highlights the tragic collapse of their close bond as unyielding romantic devotion turns their deep friendship into a painful choice between love and loyalty, leading to a shattered bond and a bittersweet farewell.
