World 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
And I am feeling so small
It was over my head
I know nothing at all
And I will stumble and fall
I'm still learning to love
Just starting to crawl
Say something, I'm giving up on you
I'm sorry that I couldn't get to you
Anywhere, I would've followed you
Say something, I'm giving up on you
And I will swallow my pride
You're the one that I love
And I'm saying goodbye
Say something, I'm giving up on you
And I'm sorry that I couldn't get to you
And anywhere, I would have followed you, oh-oh
Say something, I'm giving up on you
Say something, I'm giving up on you
Say something
In the song "Say Something" by A Great Big World ft. Christina Aguilera, the lyrics express a deep sense of resignation, heartbreak, and vulnerability. The singer is reaching a breaking point in a relationship, feeling that their efforts to save it have been futile. They are pleading for their partner to speak up and give them a reason to keep trying, to show any sign that there is still hope for their love to survive. However, as the song progresses, it becomes apparent that their partner remains silent, perhaps indicating that they have already given up or are unwilling to make any effort to salvage the relationship.
The lyrics evoke a feeling of overwhelming insignificance in the face of heartbreak and loss. The singer admits to feeling small and naive, acknowledging their lack of understanding and knowledge in matters of love. The line "And I will stumble and fall, I'm still learning to love, Just starting to crawl" reflects their vulnerability and their admission that they are still in the process of figuring out how to navigate the complexities of love.
As the song reaches its climax, the singer makes a painful decision to swallow their pride and let go of the one they love. They express their regret for not being able to reach their partner, recognizing that they have tried their best but ultimately have to accept the reality of the situation. The repetition of "Say something, I'm giving up on you" throughout the song emphasizes the desperation and finality of their decision.
Overall, "Say Something" is a heartfelt and emotional exploration of the complexities of love, vulnerability, and the painful process of letting go.

My eyes always get teary when I hear this song.
I remember the time everything seemed perfect, no drama, no fighting, no envy.
But as I grew older, I got to see how cruel the world and its people can be.
When I was 12, my parents started fighting a lot. My dad found out that my mom was cheating on him with someone who was 18 years younger than her. That really broke his heart, I remember seeing him cry all day.
Unfortunately,I barely get to see him now. He never comes at my place to check up, nor does my mom.
My parents were never really there for me either. They were absent for most of my life. They were never there for me when I needed them the most.
They used to be all "lovey dovey" back then but now they both hate eachother.
I lost a lot of important people through out my life too.
You don't want to imagine how I felt, when I lost the best person in my life. My little brother. He will always be in my heart, no matter what.
A lot of people would compare me to my seniors, cousins and friends etc
They would always make me feel like I was a disappointment. They would let all there anger out on me, knowing that I had a very fragile heart and was a naive child.
Honestly, it's partly my fault too. I never stood up for myself because I thought they knew what was right and I didn't.
I was just a very "coward" child.
Now that I have grown up, I am chasing after my dreams and focusing on myself and not on others. I have many people supporting me, even tho my family isn't.
Edit= I am in last year of university right now, my field was towards writing and books. My parents never really supported my dreams, but I kept going after what I wanted. What i wrote above was only half of what happened since I wanted to keep the rest private.
Know that life will always be full of obstacles, that one must pass to proceed the next level. Never give up when you are in time of distress and remember that what you're going through will eventually last.
