Background and composition
"Say Anything" was written by Josh Ramsay and was produced by Dave Genn.[4] Ramsay described the track as "metaphorical."[5]
"It's sad that someone can be in a situation where they feel so threatened or the textbook layout would be that they 'feel so numb so that they're cutting themselves so that they can feel anything,' and I can definitely relate, because I think that once you look at it, everyone has their own masochistic tendencies, regardless of whether they’re physical or not."[5]
The track runs at 179 BPM and is in the key of G# major.[6] The band performed the song on the American science fiction television series, Kyle XY.[7]
