Disclaimer: I don't own Death Note, Matt, Mello, or the song Fall for You by Secondhand Serenade.

A/N: I've wanted to do an MxM songfic with this song for a while, and I'm finally getting around to it. Hope you enjoy!

The best thing about tonight's that we're not fighting

Could it be that we have been this way before?

God, I wish that Kira didn't exist. Then L wouldn't be dead, Mello and I would have had those four long years together, and I wouldn't be dying here right now. I'll never see him again.

I know you don't think that I am trying

I know you're wearing thin down to the core

We worked on this plan knowing full well that we would probably both die executing it. But this was the only way Mello could help in the investigation, so despite the obvious dangers, we worked on our death sentence together.

This is not what I intended

I always swore to you I'd never fall apart

You know, for a second there I actually thought this plan would work. I thought that I would have time to get away from Takada's guards, that Mello would get Takada and kill her without any complications, and that Kira would be brought to justice. Stupid, right?

You always thought that I was stronger

I may have failed, but I have loved you from the start

I wish that we had succeeded. I wish I could just hold you in my arms one more time, Mel. We never really said goodbye. There are so many things I wish I could still say to you. I wanted to grow old with you, to finally be able to settle down and have a fucking normal life. But I can see that dream flying out the window…

Breathe in so deep

Breathe me in, I'm yours to keep

I'll always be yours, Mel. You're the only person I've ever loved. I just really hope we'll be together after this.

And hold on to your words 'cause talk is cheap

And remember me tonight when you're asleep

Will you think of me in death? I'll be thinking of you every second. You were my whole life. Without you, I have nothing.

Because tonight will be the night

That I will fall for you over again

I'm dying, Mel. I'm dying for you. And that's the only way I would ever want to die.

Don't make me change my mind

Or I won't live to see another day

I swear it's true

When I said I'd do this, you tried to stop me. You made it seem like my life was important. But you were wrong, Mel. Your life was the only thing that mattered.

Because a guy like you is impossible to find

You're impossible to find

I'll miss you Mel. And I want you to always remember that I love you, with all of my heart.
