Cross My Heart
Mariana Trench Lyrics

So here's another day
Starting off another day without the person they miss

I'll spend away from you
Without the person they miss, their time just doesn't feel the same

Another night I'm on another broken avenue
Once again, feeling lost and alone without their loved one

My bag is ripped and worn
Their physical belongings reflect their emotional state

Then again now so am I
Their emotional state is directly affecting them

Take what you want to take
Addressing their missing loved one, telling them to take what they need from them

What you wanna take
Reiterating that they want their loved one to take what they need from them

I miss the stupid things
Nostalgic for the little moments they shared with their loved one

We'd go to sleep and then
Recalling fond memories of going to bed together

You'd wake me up and kick me out of bed at 3 AM
Remembering a time when their loved one playfully woke them up in the middle of the night

Pick up the phone and hear you saying dirty things to me
Thinking about the intimate moments they shared over the phone

Do what you wanna do
Giving their loved one permission to do what they need to do

What you wanna do
Reiterating their previous statement, telling their loved one to do what they need to do

Take me with you
Desperately wanting to be with their loved one

I start to miss you
Feeling their absence even more acutely

Take me home
Wanting to be in the place where they feel most comfortable - with their loved one

I don't wanna be alone tonight
Finding the thought of being alone unbearable

And I do want to show you
Expressing their desire to demonstrate their feelings to their loved one

I will run to you to you till I
They will go to great lengths to be with their loved one, even to their own detriment

Can't stand on my own anymore
Will make physical and emotional sacrifices to be with their loved one

Cross my heart and hope to die
Promise to honor their commitment to their loved one

Hotels are all the same
Feeling the monotony of their current situation

You're still away from me
Still feeling the distance between themselves and their loved one

Another day
Another mundane day without their loved one

Another dollar that I'll never see
Money isn't providing any solace to their loneliness

Gonna get the pieces
Determined to find the good in their current situation

The pieces
Referring to the good in their life that is still present

Pieces of something good
Finding fragments of hope amidst their despair

Lie just a little lie
Telling a small untruth to make themselves feel better

Just a little lie
Small lies may be the only way to cope in their current situation

I wonder what your doing
Caring and curious about their loved one's well-being

I wonder if you doubt it
Questioning if their loved one feels the same way about them

I wonder how we ever used to go so long without it
Realizing how much their loved one means to them and how they ever got by without them

I don't know where to go
Feeling lost without their loved one

I'm going back to you
Making the decision to go back to their loved one

Be where I ought to be
Believing they belong with their loved one

Where I ought to be
Again, emphasizing their sense of belonging with their loved one

Take me with you
Persisting in their desire to be with their loved one

And I do want to show you
Continuing to express their desire to demonstrate their love

I will run to you to you till I
A reiterated vow to make every effort to be with their loved one

Cross my heart and hope to die
The strength and gravity of their commitment to their loved one
