It COULD be about an affair, but I'm going to say that's what he wants you to think, and that it's really about being in the closet. I'm in the closet, and these lyrics are eerie. To make my case, consider this:
Morrissey is Preston's hero. Preston even goes by his last name alone, just like Morrissey.
The male camaraderie found in other songs ("girls come and go but what about friends").
The word "boys" in the band name, a song name, and more than one song's lyrics.
The band's logo, that thing you're meant to think is a flower. Have a closer look. What else could it be?
Not to mention the fact that Preston is just too charismatic to be straight.
