Say It from io io by Clelia
Say It is a song about the mess of constellations in our lives: the tangled emotions, struggles, and the words we wish we could say but can’t. It has a certain innocence, a bittersweet honesty. This was created in Tennessee, conceptualized in 2018.

Lyrics
Verse 1
I wanna be a good time, I wanna make you laugh
When you whisper that you love me, I wish I could scream it back
But all I see is danger, because I don’t think I’m there yet
I wanna say I’m ready, but my walls are going up
We’re a mess of constellations, and I can’t connect the dots
They say love should be simple—maybe I’m not there yet
Chorus
Go ahead and say it, say it, let it sink in slow
'Cause the more I hear you say it, the more that I know
Maybe I’m not there yet... but I could be though
Verse 2
It feels like no one hears me when I say I’m hurt
I show you my scars—you see me, you're the first
I wish I didn’t need you, but I don’t think I’m there yet
Chorus
So go ahead and say it, say it, let it sink in slow
Maybe I’m not there yet... but I could be though

Classically trained with piano in my youth, I later studied jazz singing. Along the way, I dabbled with the theremin and developed a love for all things percussion and raw, objet trouvé sounds. My influences range from hauntology to shoegaze, dream pop, and soulful indie pop-rock, with a tinge of the beauty of simple acoustic sounds and a dash of alt- R&B soul.
