Something
Gnash Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Whoa oh oh oh, don't you know I could buy you a rose
Or maybe a daisy 'cause lately you seem into those
Whoa oh oh oh, I guess that works for them, I suppose
But wouldn't you rather have something that matters with me?

Whoa oh oh oh, you're more than a feeling
Whoa oh oh oh, you're something I'm needing
If you feel lonely and left out with nothing to do
I'd love to be a something to you
I'd love to be a something to you
I'd love to be a something to you

There's something 'bout the way you move
There's something in the way you groove
There's something you don't know you do
That makes me feel my feels for you
There's nothing more amazing, nothing feels more unbelievable
Than when I say I love you and you say to me, "I love you, too"
So baby boo, please fall through
Please call me when your plans fall through
You could dance on me with your hands on me
When your man's on leave, put my hands on you
I don't care if you hate me, I don't care if you love me
I just wanna be your buddy
I just wanna be that something to you

Whoa oh oh oh, you're more than a feeling
Whoa oh oh oh, you're something I'm needing
And if you feel lonely and left out with nothing to do
I'd love to be a something to you
I'd love to be a something to you
I'd love to be a something to you

Whoa oh oh oh, don't you know I could write you a song?
And it'd probably go like this and wouldn't take me very long
And whoa oh oh oh, though a world would probably sing along
But wouldn't you rather have something that matters with me?
And it goes like

Whoa oh oh oh, you're more than a feeling
Whoa oh oh oh, you're something I'm needing
And if you feel lonely and left out with nothing to do
I'd love to be a something to you
I'd love to be a something to you




I'd love to be a something to you
I'd love to be a something to you

Overall Meaning

In this song, Gnash is telling the person he loves that he doesn't just want to be the typical romantic gesture-giver. He knows he could buy them flowers or write them a song that would be popular, but he wants to be something more meaningful to them. He tells this person that they are more than just a fleeting feeling, they are something he needs in his life. He offers to be there for them when they feel lonely or left out and wants to be the one they can rely on. He even suggests dancing with them when they're feeling down.


The bridge of the song is particularly sweet, as Gnash explains that nothing feels better than telling someone you love them and having them say it back. He just wants to be that person for them, whether they love him or hate him. The chorus is repeated a few times, highlighting the idea that he doesn't want to just do something nice for them, he wants to actually matter to them.


Overall, this song is a sweet declaration of love that goes beyond the typical gestures of romance. It's about truly caring for someone and being there for them in any way they need.

What's with all the dislikes? There's a lot of worse stuff out there. I'm legitimately shocked.

JACKSTERBLASTER that’s offensive to his name he sounds amazing I’d like to see you do better

JACKSTERBLASTER

HabitProductions probably because of the simplicity of the lyrics and the video and song as a whole is very uninspired and brings nothing new to the table. the only objective of the song was to have a catchy hook and it kind of fails at doing that as well. and in my humble opinion he doesn’t really sound that great as a singer, many, many amateurs out there who sound much better then him.
