Say Something
TSLW Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

I know 나만 느낀
게 아니란 걸 알아
꽤 묘한 걸 눈빛이 달라
말해봐 I can't wait
Please Say Something
Hold it back today
너의 얼굴엔 뭔가 할 말이 있어보여
우리 사이엔 보이지

않는 거리가 있어
큰 바다 같아
나만 느낀 게 아니란 걸 알아
꽤 묘하게 말투도 달라
이제 와 어떤 얘기도 두려워
너와 내 거리는 마치
바다 건너 서울에서 뉴욕
식은지 오래됐지
너에 대한 마음의 불도
널 잊기 위해 move yo
이 주변을 느껴
되돌리고 싶어
시간을 너와 그때로
수영 바다를 건너서
너의 파도를 맞으며
되돌릴 수만 있다면 i can
되돌릴 수만 있다면 i can,
but 우린 너무 멀리
왔지 It's too late
우린 도미노처럼 down
신경 쓰지 않고
각자의 길을 가면은 돼
우린 너무 멀리 왔지
우린 팽이처럼 down
주저 않고 오늘 결국
너에게 말하려고 해
Hold it back today
너의 얼굴엔 뭔가 할 말이 있어보여
우리 사이엔 보이지

않는 거리가 있어
큰 바다 같아

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of TSLW's song "Say Something" depict a relationship that is experiencing distance and a lack of communication. The singer acknowledges that they are not the only one feeling this way and that there is a strange difference in their partner's gaze. They urge their partner to say something, to not hold back their thoughts or feelings. The singer senses that there is something their partner wants to say, as it shows on their face. However, there seems to be an invisible distance between them, like a vast ocean. The singer knows that their feelings are not unique and there is something mysteriously different about their partner's tone of speech. The fear of opening up and the distance between them is compared to the distance between Seoul and New York City. The lyrics also hint at a time that has passed and the difficulty of moving on from their feelings for their partner. They yearn to turn back time and be in the same place they were before, to cross the ocean and experience their partner's waves again. The repetition of the line "되돌릴 수만 있다면" (if only we could turn back time) emphasizes the longing for what has been lost and the regret of the current situation. The song ends with a realization that they have come too far and it's too late to go back. Despite this, they express their determination to speak up and say something to their partner, even if it means going down their own paths like dominos.
