Say Something
Blood Red Sun Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
How it goes...
In this stubborn town?
No one seems to know...
How to get around...
Oneself.
We see what we are
And we do what we teach
Oh, how it goes?
Say something...
Anything...
Do something...
Don't let me stand on this land
And be ashamed.
Guilty of blame.
I too carry shame!
The Sun is always there
If we care to care.
Oh ohh ohhh
Like the wind is deep within
We all have our sins
Now say something...
Anything...
Ohhh, oh oh ohh
Do something...
Anything...
Anything...
Come on say something...
Do something...
Anything...
The smallest thing of your silence
Kills us!
The lyrics to Blood Red Sun's song "Say Something" are a call for action and an urge to speak up when there is a lack of communication or action. The opening lines express frustration with a "stubborn town" where people seem unable to navigate their way around and help themselves. The song then becomes a plea for others to speak and act, as the singer does not want to stand on "this land" and feel ashamed or guilty. The sun is mentioned as a metaphor for something constant and always present, like the potential for change and action in the world. The lyrics suggest that everyone has secrets or regrets ("We all have our sins"), but that it's important to acknowledge and move past them in order to make progress. In the end, the singer implores others to say or do anything, as the smallest act or lack of response can have devastating consequences.
Overall, "Say Something" is a poignant and emotional song that captures the frustration and urgency of feeling stuck or unheard. The repeated pleas for action and communication create a sense of urgency and momentum, even as the lyrics acknowledge the difficulty of change and self-improvement. The use of metaphors like the sun and wind add depth and texture to the lyrics, while the repetition of "say something" and "do something" make the song easily memorable and impactful.

Oh, como vai nesta cidade teimosa
Ninguém parece saber como se locomover - a si mesmo
Nós vemos o que somos e fazemos o que ensinamos - deixe-me pregar no meu mundo
Oh como vai
Basta dizer algo - qualquer coisa
Faça alguma coisa
Não me deixe ficar nesta terra e ter vergonha
Culpado de culpa - eu também carrego vergonha
O sol está sempre lá - se nos importarmos, oh
Como se o vento soprasse profundamente - todos nós temos nossos pecados
Agora diga algo - qualquer coisa Oh Oh
Faça alguma coisa - qualquer coisa, qualquer coisa
Venha, diga alguma coisa, faça alguma coisa - qualquer coisa
A menor coisa - seu silêncio nos mata
Diga alguma coisa - qualquer coisa Oh Oh
Fazer algo
