A/N: Hey everyone. Just a quick little oneshot, written in about an hour. I used the beautiful lyrics form Coldplay's Fix You, and just want to say that I do not own the italicized words. I'm not that good of a lyricist. Oh and I don't own the character's mentioned either. Thanks for reading!

When you try your best but you don't succeed.

I tried to tell Robin. I really did. But then she got me that girl, and I couldn't turn around and deny her "offerings." That would just be rude. I'm sure that's in the Bro Code somewhere…

When you get what you want but not what you need.

Sure I slept with that yoga instructor. Because she was hot that's why. It definitely wasn't because I need something to dull the pain. Something to tell me I'm not completely pathetic. Something, anything…

When you feel so tired but you can't sleep

I lie awake thinking of her. And why? Because she's so damn awesome. I just remember that night when we didn't sleep, and we weren't tired. Why can't it be like that every night?

Stuck in reverse.

I feel like every day I'm losing, One day she's sitting next to me, stroking my leg, the next she's hanging out at a bar with Marshall. It's not fair. Why can't she see that I'm struggling so hard?

When the tears come streaming down your face

I don't cry. I never cry. Well, except at Lily and Marshall's (real) wedding. And Slapsgiving. And… well I do cry. But not a lot. I mostly just feel like crying and hold it back. Like when she walks into McClaren's with another guy.

When you lose something you cant replace

When I told Lily how I felt about Robin, I knew that I would never live it down. Ever since then, Lily gives me these weird looks whenever I flirt with Robin. Why can't it just go back to the way it was?

When you love someone but it goes to waste

She doesn't know. She doesn't care. I dream of her, and she has no idea. She's all I think about. I wish I could just let go of all of this. But I can't. I love her, and, unfortunately, that isn't going to change.

Could it be worse?

My life is going down the drain. My apartment/lair is going to waste. That's it. Tonight I'm going to pick up a random girl, and I will have mindless sex with her. That's all I can do.

And high up above or down below

Some days I feel like I'm on top of the girl (what up?) and sometimes I'm so down, I can't even move. I just lie there in bed, thinking about ways I can make her love me like I love her. I feel like a creep.

When you're too in love to let it go

I chose Bimbos. I chose to forget about Robin altogether and sleep with whomever I so choose. However, my heart decided that would not work, and has renegotiated. I chose to think about Robin day and night, no questions asked. (My heart's not very good with business.)

But if you never try you'll never know

I try. A lot. I almost told her. I almost got with her at Ted's NotWedding. Hell, I even beat myself up just to get closer to her. But nothing works. I don't believe in fate, or karma, but this is just not right.

Just what you're worth

Is it normal to feel worthless? Is it normal to feel like no one cares if you're there or not? Because some days I believe if I just got up from the booth and shot myself in the temple, my "friends" would only be upset that their table got messy.

Lights will guide you home

And ignite your bones

And I will try to fix you

Please someone, anyone. Fix me.
