Say
Stria Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
All the lies magnified all our mistakes
Should suffer or escape
I'm paralyzed terrified from when you
Said we'd never let it die
I'm lucky to get out alive
Say, what you won't say
When we are broken in time
Say, what you don't say
We live in silence and love
It's something that you won't say
Agony underneath 'cuz you won't see
You're so in love with the things we'll never be
Back off, you're suffocating me
I'm paralyzed terrified because you
Try to keep what's dead alive
The time has come to let it die
Say, what you won't say
When we are broken in time
It's only because I
Say, what you don't say
We live in silence and love
It's something that you won't say
It's just for the thrill
You kill this moment
Standing in silence
Watching me scream
It's just not enough
To stop this voice inside of me
Say, what you won't say
When we are broken in time
It's only because I
Say, what you don't say
We live in silence and love
It's something that you won't say
Broken in time It's only because I say
We live in silence in love it's something that you won't say
(End)
The lyrics to Stria's song "Say" talk about a relationship that has gone sour due to the lies and mistakes made by both parties. The singer is questioning whether they should stay and suffer or leave to escape the pain. The relationship has reached a point where both parties are paralyzed and terrified, unable to communicate effectively. The singer feels suffocated by their partner's attempts to keep the relationship alive when it is clear that it is time to let it die. The main theme of the song is the power of unsaid words and the damage they can cause in a relationship.
Throughout the verses and chorus, the singer is urging their partner to "say what you won't say" and to stop living in silence and love. The singer feels that their partner is in love with the idea of what they could be, rather than embracing the reality of the relationship. The bridge of the song talks about how it is not enough for the partner to simply stand in silence and watch the singer scream. The relationship has reached a breaking point, and the singer is urging their partner to finally say what needs to be said.
Overall, Stria's "Say" is a powerful song that explores the themes of communication and transparency in relationships. The song highlights the importance of speaking up and saying what needs to be said rather than living in silence and pretending that everything is okay.

Who's to say I'd leave for all this pain
I might not leave even though it hurts
All the lies magnified all our mistakes
Our mistakes are amplified by lies
Should suffer or escape
It's unclear whether to endure or flee
I'm paralyzed terrified from when you
I'm scared because of what you have done to me
Said we'd never let it die
You promised that we would always keep it alive
I'm lucky to get out alive
It's good that I managed to escape with my life
Say, what you won't say
Speak the unspoken words to me
When we are broken in time
When we are hurt and struggling
It's only because I
It's all because of me
We live in silence and love
Our relationship is marked by unspoken love
It's something that you won't say
You refuse to express how you feel
Agony underneath 'cuz you won't see
I am in pain that you cannot perceive
You're so in love with the things we'll never be
You love what we cannot become
Back off, you're suffocating me
You are overwhelming me and I need space
Try to keep what's dead alive
You are trying to preserve what is no longer alive
The time has come to let it die
It is time to accept that it is over
It's just for the thrill
You are doing this for the excitement
You kill this moment
You are ruining this moment
Standing in silence
We are both silent
Watching me scream
You are watching me express my pain
It's just not enough
This is not sufficient
To stop this voice inside of me
To quiet the turmoil in my heart
Broken in time It's only because I say
Our brokenness is my fault
We live in silence in love it's something that you won't say
Our love is based on unspoken words that you refuse to say

Dizer
Quem vai dizer que eu deixaria para toda essa dor
Todas as mentiras ampliaram todos os nossos erros
Deve sofrer ou escapar
Eu estou paralisado aterrorizado de quando você
Disse que nunca deixe morrer
Eu tenho sorte de sair vivo
Diga, o que você não vai dizer
Quando estamos quebrados no tempo
É só porque eu
Dizer, o que você não diz
Vivemos em silêncio e amor
É algo que você não vai dizer
Agonia embaixo porque você não verá
Você é tão apaixonado por coisas que nunca será
Desembarace-se, você está me sufocando
Eu estou paralisado apavorado porque você
Tente manter o que está morto vivo
Chegou a hora de deixá-lo morrer
Diga, o que você não vai dizer
Quando estamos quebrados no tempo
É só porque eu
Dizer, o que você não diz
Vivemos em silêncio e amor
É algo que você não vai dizer
É apenas para a emoção
Você mata agora
De pé em silêncio
Observando-me gritar
Não é apenas o suficiente
Para parar esta voz dentro de mim
Diga, o que você não vai dizer
Quando estamos quebrados no tempo
É só porque eu
Dizer, o que você não diz
Vivemos em silêncio e amor
É algo que você não vai dizer
Quebrada no tempo é só porque eu digo
Vivemos em silêncio no amor é algo que você não vai dizer

Years later (though only about a year after I found them) and I am still lamenting the fact that none of their music is on Spotify.

This, and the rest of the Stria uploads you've done, are super old at this point but I'd just like to say thank you for uploading such high quality versions of their music. I listened to them back when they first released their self-titled and I missed their music so much because it had been ripped from Spotify and I never even THOUGHT to look here. Thank you again. <3

Why did it get ripped? I really wanted it on spotify ;-;
