Say My Name

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Gambling with weighted dice
I know all this but I still play along
I guess I'm gonna have to lose
I had the highest hopes
And it probably doesn't even show
Do you miss all of the talking
Miss out on the small things
It's only when I
I draw the line
So say my name
You gotta say my name
Say my name now
Best to say the same
Or I'll be blamed again
You cannot deny how hard I try
To put you first every damn time
It's hopeless devotion but I'll play along
Recklessly abandoned to truth
I had good intention
And it probably doesn't even show
Do you miss all of the talking
Miss out on the small things
Do you even miss my voice
It's only when I
I draw the line
So say my name
Do you miss all of the talking
Miss out on the small things
Do you even miss my voice
It's only when I
I draw the line
So say my name
You gotta say my name
Say my name now
Best to say the same
Or I'll be blamed again
The lyrics to M.D.M.S's song, 'Say My Name,' are about the frustration and loneliness felt by someone who is devoted to another person, but feels unappreciated and neglected. The singer discusses how they have put their partner first in every situation, hoping that their efforts will be recognized and appreciated. However, they have not received the attention they crave and feel unheard, leading to them drawing a line and wanting their partner to say their name, acknowledge them and stop taking their devotion for granted.
The line "So say my name, you gotta say my name, say my name now, best to say the same or I'll be blamed again," shows the singer's desperation and how they feel they will have no one to blame but their partner if they do not receive the affection and recognition they desire. The lyrics explore the complexities of love and how it can be difficult to navigate when one partner feels neglected and the other is unaware of their actions.
Furthermore, the line "Gambling with weighted dice" implies that the singer feels that their partner is cheating as if they are playing a game with an unfair advantage. The line "Recklessly abandoned to truth" refers to the singer's complete surrender to the truth of their relationship, even if it is not what they were hoping for. Overall, the song captures the sadness and exhaustion that comes when one person puts all their effort into a relationship, only to receive little in return.
