Say something, I’m giving up on you.
Turbo Jennie sent out the video to this song, sung by A Great Big World with Christina Aguilera. I . watched it one time and I fell in love.
I’ll be the one, if you want me to.
I watched it over and over again, crying each time
Anywhere, I would have followed you
During their AMA performance, I whispered, “I love this song” even as tears stung my eyes. I couldn’t breathe.
Say something, I’m giving up on you.
I shared the video with a friend at work. “It’s missing a word,” she said. “Shouldn’t it be ‘Say something OR I’m giving up on you.’?”
And I am feeling so small
“No,” I told her. “There's desperation without it. ‘Say something. HURRY. Say it right now.’”
It was over my head
HURRY
I know nothing at all.
“There’s just something about it. It just calls to me,” I said. “I don’t know what it is.”
And I will stumble and fall
I felt stupid. I watched again alone that night.
I’m still learning to love
And I cried and I cried and I cried
Just starting to crawl.
The next morning, it hit me.
Say something, I’m giving up on you.
It’s me.
I’m sorry that I couldn’t get to you.
With everything going on in my life lately, I haven’t been taking very good care of myself.
Anywhere, I would’ve followed you.
Not eating well. Not sleeping well. Not doing anything for ME.
Say something, I’m giving up on you.
Maybe I’m giving up. On me.
And I will swallow pride
It was quite the “aha” moment.
You’re the one that I love
There were more tears, of course.
And I’m saying goodbye
But relief, too.
Say something, I’m giving up on you.
Maybe it is stupid.
And I’m sorry that I couldn’t get to you.
But I feel like my mind has been trying to tell me something.
And anywhere, would’ve followed you.
And I’m just now understanding.
Oh, say something, I’m giving up on you.
Hurry.
Say something I’m giving up on you.
I’m finally listening.
Say something.
