I Can't Live Without You

about

This song tells the story of the sense of male entitlement that some men have in relationships. It’s about the “good guy” scenario, about a man who thinks he deserves something.

lyrics

I deserve this cuz I'm a good guy
Little bit nervous, a little bit shy
Stuck in the friend zone and I don't know why
Dump your boyfriend and give me a try

Why don't you love me and why don't you care?
If only I could brush my hand through your hair
Living without you, I'd much rather die
You should believe me, I don't ever lie

I can't live without you
Not without your love
I can't live without you
Not without your love

I'm really sorry 'bout yesterday
Don't know what happened, things went astray
I'm really sorry 'bout yesterday
Why don't you love me? Why don't you stay?

I can't live without you
Not without your love
I can't live without you
Not without your love
(You're gonna give it to me)

I deserve you, I love you the most
I'm smarter than him, but don't mean to boast
If you can't see me the way I see you
I'll bide my time til you understand too

You're a disaster, but I can fix you
Thoughts are just words that you have to choose
I'll be your savior and rescue your heart
Just give me a chance, and tell me where to start

I can't live without you
Not without your love
(You're gonna give it to me)
I can't live without you
Not without your love
(You're gonna give it to me)

I can't live without you
(You're gonna give it to me)
Not without your love
(You're gonna give it to me)
I can't live without you
(You're gonna give it to me)
Not without your love
(You're gonna give it to me Now)

about

Clever Transient Atlanta, Georgia

Like many people in their late-40s facing a global pandemic, Michael D Friedman, a.k.a. Clever Transient, decided one day that he wanted to write and record music. So he bought himself a little MIDI keyboard, a cheap guitar and some software and eventually learned how to play (mostly). From there, Clever Transient was born. It was either that, or bake bread. ... more
