Say
The First Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And all the shades in between
Snow-white scenes IRL
Say goodbye to warm streams,
And the mystery
Who am I to tell
You already know
We wanted more, more and more,
Say goodbye
I don't wanna
I don't wanna
Say goodbye
And I did nothing
What
I did nothing
What
I did nothing
In "Say" by The First, the lyrics revolve around the theme of saying goodbye to the beauty and comfort of nature and confronting the harsh reality of the world. The opening lines refer to the various shades of green that exist in nature, and how the singer must say goodbye to them. They then mention "IRL" or "in real life," hinting that the previous scenes were imagined or a memory, and they must now face reality. The warm streams and mystery are also mentioned, perhaps symbolizing the idea of losing innocence and discovering hard truths. The lines "Who am I to tell, you already know" suggest that the person being addressed already understands the reality they must confront. The chorus then repeats the phrase "Say goodbye" several times, indicating the difficulty in letting go. The lines "I did nothing, what?" could embody a certain level of denial that the singer had done something to contribute to their current state of having to say goodbye.
Overall, the song seems to be about the difficulty of leaving behind a simpler, more carefree way of life to face the complicated and demanding world. The lyrics convey a sense of melancholy and resignation, with the singer unsure of what comes next or how to move forward.
Line by Line Meaning
Say goodbye to the moss and apple green,
Farewell to the lush greenery and every shade in between
And all the shades in between
Every tint and hue that lies between the moss and apple green
Snow-white scenes IRL
Real-life wintry landscapes with glistening snow-white surfaces
Say goodbye to warm streams,
Bid farewell to the comforting flow of tepid currents and streams
And the mystery
Leave behind the intrigue and the enigmatic aura
Who am I to tell
What right do I have to dictate or enforce?
You already know
You are already aware of it
We wanted more, more and more,
We had an insatiable thirst for excess and surplus
For nothing
Without any real reason or cause
Say goodbye
Bid adieu
I don't wanna
I don't want to
I don't wanna
I don't want to
Say goodbye
Bid adieu
And I did nothing
I took no actions
What
Unexpected, perplexing
I did nothing
I took no actions
What
Unexpected, perplexing
I did nothing
I took no actions

I remember the day
Even wrote down the date, that I fell for you
And now it's crossed out in red
But I still can't forget if I wanted to
And it drives me insane
Think I'm hearing your name, everywhere I go
But it's all in my head
It's just all in my head
But you won't see me break, call you up in three days
Or send you a bouquet, saying, "It's a mistake"
Drink my troubles away, one more glass of champagne
And you know
I'm the first to say that I'm not perfect
And you're the first to say you want the best thing
But now I know a perfect way to let you go
Give my last hello, hope it's worth it
Here's your perfect
My best was just fine
How I tried, how I tried to be great for you
I'm flawed by design and you loved to remind me
No matter what I do
But you won't see me break, call you up in three days
Or send you a bouquet, saying, "It's a mistake"
Drink my troubles away, one more glass of champagne
And you know
I'm the first to say that I'm not perfect
And you're the first to say you want the best thing
But now I know a perfect way to let you go
Give my last hello, hope it's worth it
I'm the first to say that I'm not perfect
And you're the first to say you want the best thing (Best thing, yeah)
But now I know a perfect way to let you go
Give my last hello, hope it's worth it
Say yeah, yeah, yeah
Ayy-ayy, ayy-ayy
But now I know a perfect way to let you go
Give my last hello, hope it's worth it
Here's your perfect

I can't do anything
I am not good at anything
I can't draw
I can't write beautifully
I can't make up
I can't do anything
My friends can do everything
I am not perfect agreed
I born to be real
