Crossfade Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
The journey will go on
High in spirit
Feelin' free
My heaven's white
I'm blue
I'm all alone
And I was born to be flyin' wild
I'll join me up
Wings reach the sky
My wings will take me higher
Girl I see you strifing far below
Fighting and pushing
'Till your dying day
You say it's heaven
But I see you're sad
Afraid to lose your pain
How 'bout
Losen up
And taking chances
Running wild while you can
You still trace a glimpse of hatin'
Deep inside your soul
Can't stop
I can't ignore all the feelin'
You running out of time
Can't tell you
Can't ignore
You just
Gotta try
Rise your ice and
See how I'm flying
I can fly
You gotta
See how I'm flying
It's wonderful
Lookin' up into the sky and mabye
The journey seems too long
Higher mountains
To be won
Don't worry we'll be fine
We're on our own
Enjoy the ride
We're born to be flying wild
We'll join me up
Wings reach the sky
We'll spread our wings and fly
Can't stop
I can't ignore all the feelin'
You running out of time
Can't tell you
Can't ignore
You just
Gotta try
Rise your ice and
See how I'm flyin'
High above
You gotta
See how I'm flyin'
It's wonderful
See how I'm flyin'
Can't stop
I can't ignore
All the feelin'
You runnin'
Out of time
Can't tell you
Can't ignore
You just
Gotta try
Rise your ice and
See how I'm flyin'
High above
You gotta
See how I'm flyin'
It's wonderful
See how I'm flyin'
High above
You gotta
See how I'm flyin'
It's wonderful

Life's journey continuously progresses, irrespective of our current state
High in spirit
In good mental and emotional state
Feelin' free
Feeling liberated and unbounded
My heaven's white
My ideal world is pure and peaceful

Although peaceful, I'm still somehow melancholic
I'm all alone
I'm on my own; I have no one beside me
And this world is mine
This world and all of its opportunities are at my disposal
And I was born to be flyin' wild
My innate nature is to be free and wild, and flying represents that state

I'll gather myself together and soar higher
Wings reach the sky
My wings can expand up to the vast sky
My wings will take me higher
I'll get more significant experiences and lessons as I go high
Girl I see you strifing far below
Watching someone else trying and struggling from afar
Fighting and pushing
Trying hard with all one's effort
Till your dying day
Until the end of one's life
You say it's heaven
You claim it's your perfect place
But I see you're sad
I perceive that you're unhappy
Afraid to lose your pain
You're afraid of losing the pain, even if you know it's not ideal for you
How 'bout Losen up
Why don't you relax and let go of your worries?
And taking chances
Take risks and pave the way for a better future
Running wild while you can
Live life to the fullest while you still have the chance
You still trace a glimpse of hatin'
You still harbor negative feelings
Deep inside your soul
In the innermost depths of your being
Can't stop
I can't halt my progress
I can't ignore all the feelin'
I can't disregard my emotions
You running out of time
You're quickly running out of time to pursue your dreams
Can't tell you
I'm unable to express
Can't ignore
I can't dismiss
You just
You simply
Gotta try
Have to attempt
Rise your ice and
Overcome your difficulties and soar higher
See how I'm flying
Observe how I'm flying so high
I can fly
I'm capable of flying and achieving my dreams
You gotta
You have to
It's wonderful
It's a magnificent and stunning experience
Lookin' up into the sky and mabye
Looking up into the vast expanse of the sky and possibly guessing
The journey seems too long
The journey can seem intimidatingly long
Higher mountains
Bigger challenges and obstacles
To be won
That you still have to conquer
Don't worry we'll be fine
Don't fret; we'll make it through together
We're on our own
We're self-reliant in this journey
Enjoy the ride
Appreciate the journey and all that it entails
We'll spread our wings and fly
We'll expand our capability and soar higher
High above
Rising up to great heights
