We
Boy: "This isn't my thing, it's not me, it never has been, and that was okay until now"

Girl: "But what changed from then to now"

Boy: "You did. You may have not meant to, you might not even have wanted to, but you sure as hell did it. You snuck your way into my life"

Girl: "What's that supposed to mean?"

Boy: "It means you're there. With me. Every minute in every part of it. You may not always be the forefront but you're there in some capacity, always on my mind."

Girl: "But why are you trying this if it isn't you?"

Boy: "Because it's you. And because it's you, I want it to be me. It may never be me, but it will always be you. And anything I can do to be close to you I'll do. Because it's no longer just me and no longer just you. It's we"
