Something to Say
Tiësto Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I'll be the one, if you want me to.
Anywhere, I would've followed you.
Say something, I'm giving up on you.
Say something, I'm giving up on you.
I'll be the one, if you want me to.
Anywhere, I would've followed you.
Say something, I'm giving up on you.
I'll be the one, if you want me to.
Anywhere, I would've followed you.
Say something, I'm giving up on you.
The lyrics to Tiesto feat. Emily Rowed's song Say Something express the feeling of giving up on someone you love. The repetition of the phrase "Say something, I'm giving up on you" emphasizes the desperation and the longing for a response from the other person. The singer is willing to be there for the other person and follow them anywhere, but they need some sort of indication that the other person is willing to do the same. The song suggests that sometimes, even the strongest of love can falter and it takes both people to keep it alive.
The lyrics are a reminder that communication is key in any relationship. Instead of giving up on the person we love, we should try to communicate with them and express our feelings. The song's emotional tone is heightened by Emily Rowed's powerful vocals, and Tiesto's electronic beats add a sense of urgency to the message. Overall, the song serves as a reminder that love is a two-way street and requires effort from both parties to thrive.
