Say What You Want
WESTLAND Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I hope we don't burn
My little liar, my little liar
When will you finally learn?
When exactly did you decide to quit on me?
Say the moment and I'll go back and change history.
Oh yeah...
Say what you want now,
We can work this out.
Communicate with words,
Not actions that hurt.
Say what you want now,
We can work this out.
Communicate with words,
Not actions that hurt
Let me down.
Into the fire, into the fire
I hope we don't burn
My little liar, my little liar
When will you finally learn?
When exactly did you decide to quit on me?
Say the moment and I'll go back and change history.
Oh yeah...
Say what you want now,
We can work this out.
Communicate with words,
Not actions that hurt.
Say what you want now,
We can work this out.
Communicate with words,
Not actions that hurt
Let me down, down, me down
(Don't let me down)
Last chance to love me,
Cause when I'm gone, I am gone.
Last chance to love me,
Cause when I'm gone, I am gone, gone.
Gone, gone, gone...
Say what you want now,
We can work this out.
Communicate with words,
Not actions that hurt.
Say what you want now,
We can work this out.
Communicate with words,
Not actions that hurt
Let me down
(Last chance to love me, last chance to love me)
Down, me down
'Cause when I'm gone, I am gone

The singer hopes that they can work through the difficulties in the relationship without anyone getting hurt.

The chorus of the song repeatedly urges the partner to speak up and communicate with words instead of actions that hurt. The singer wants to hear what their partner has to say, and they are willing to work on the relationship as long as there is open communication.
The bridge introduces an element of urgency, as the singer issues their partner a last chance to love them before they are gone for good.
Overall, the song is a plea for open communication and honesty in a troubled relationship. The singer wants to work on the relationship and save it from burning out.
