Cross Your Mind
Paceshifters Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

There you lay...
Don't pay me any mind.
at all.
Lost yourself.
Stumblin' through the rain at night, and I'm, standing in the cold as you walk right by...
Feel you slippin' through my fingers.
Do I even cross your mind? *instrumental* I realise...
I realise our glory days are gone.
I've seen it all...
and I never wanted more.
All im searching for is someone at my...
someone at my door.
Feel you slippin through my fingers...
Do I even cross your mind?
Now I know why...
time lingers.
I don't think that...
I will find.
I feel you slippin'... through my fingers.
Do I even cross your mind?
Now I know why.
time lingers.
I don't think that I will find. *
Instrumental* I feel you slippin' through my fingers.
And do I even cross your mind.
Now I know why time lingers.




I don't think that I will find. *
End*

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Paceshifters' song "Cross Your Mind" explore the separation and decay of a relationship that was once strong. The opening lines, "There you lay...Don't pay me any mind. at all. Lost yourself," suggest that the singer is observing their former partner from a distance, as if they are no longer able to reach them or impact their life in any meaningful way. It's clear that the relationship has ended, but the singer is still holding onto their feelings and wondering if they are still on their ex-partner's mind.


The singer vividly describes the scene of their former partner walking by them in the rain, highlighting the physical distance between them despite their emotional closeness in the past. The line, "Feel you slippin' through my fingers," shows the singer's frustration and sadness at losing their partner, while the question "Do I even cross your mind?" suggests that the singer is struggling to come to terms with the fact that their ex-partner may have moved on.


As the song progresses, the singer acknowledges that their "glory days" are over and that they may never find another partner who means as much to them as their ex. The repetition of the lines "I feel you slippin'...through my fingers. Do I even cross your mind?" reinforces the singer's sense of loss and longing, while the final lines, "Now I know why time lingers. I don't think that I will find," suggest that the singer may be resigned to their current state of heartbreak.
