Say What You Need to Say - John Mayer

Even if your hands are shaking

And your faith is broken

Even as the eyes are closing

Do it with a heart wide open

Say what you need to say

(via danawood)

Best. John Mayer. Song. Ever. Those lyrics were my mantra for a good part of the summer and got me through a lot. 

I’m actually a big fan of John Mayer, but “Say” has got to be one of his worst songs. When he’s not saying “Say what you need to say,” the song is great, but when around 75% of a song is the same line (literally), you’re not really exercising much creativity for a song with such potential.

I understand the significance of the line, and I don’t disagree that it’ is an important theme to repeat in the song, but 36 times is a bit excessive.
