Song Meaning of “Say When” by Jukebox The Ghost
‘Say When’ by Jukebox The Ghost is an upbeat, dreamy song about the process of letting go of a relationship gone wrong. The lyrics imply that the singer is holding back emotions that they know could potentially hurt or hurt the person they are with, but that ultimately they know it will be for the best if they can finally bring themselves to say when that a parting is the only way. It’s a song about the struggle for self-control in order to make the right decision about a relationship. With lyrics like “Won’t let words come out of my mouth, no/Can’t be the one who says it out loud, so” it seems like the singer is trying to hold back from saying too much and ruining the relationship. It’s a song about the bittersweet feeling of finally being able to move on from a relationship that was never meant to be.
