Cross My Heart
Set Ablaze Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
The lyrics of "Cross My Heart" by Set Ablaze present a speaker who is immersed in pain and malevolence caused by someone's words and actions. The singer is trapped in a situation where they are forced to endure the agony of the other person's every word, which has consumed their every emotion with malice. The person they are addressing seems to have a self-righteous attitude, which has led them to believe that they hold the power to define what is right and wrong. The singer feels bound by the very thing that they despise, with no interest in the other person's attempts at good will. Instead, all that is left for those who abandon their faith is inclemency, harshness and lack of mercy.
The singer expresses their disgust at the other person's presence and the power that they hold over them. They feel that words are no longer enough to convey the depth of their nausea when they are around this person. The singer is driven to uttering the chilling line, "Cross my heart and hope you die," an expression of their intense hatred and desire for the other person's demise. The rest of the lyrics continue to delve into the unhappy state of the singer and their utter disillusionment with the other person. They see no chance for reconciliation, no opportunity for repentance, and no remorse for what they have done to cause such intense pain. The overall effect of the lyrics is a very bleak and desperate one, as the singer seems to have lost all hope of a resolution.

Never run, never hide, legends never die
Feel the burn, come alive, lighting up the night
I'll do what it takes, yeah
So just set your heart ablaze
[Verse 1]
I've been through it all, yeah
Stared at my demons straight into their eyes
I never would fall, yeah
Summer shine in the winter's spine
Always answer the call, yeah
Top 3, but you praise mine
You could never see the daylight
No firе, what a gray life
I do this for you, hope you know it
Lighting up the sky, hopе I show it, yeah
My whole life, I was see through
All I wanted was to be you
But I really couldn't seem to, yeah
Do you really wanna give it all
You can think of me whenever that you fall, yeah
You can find the answer right here
When your heart beats faster, have no fear
[Pre-Chorus]
There's no time
Let me save you, it's alright
I lived my truth

Head to a blade
Trio of freshman with veteran plays
Veteran plays
Finish the mission, no need to amaze
Just set it ablaze, it's time to be brave
Just go and be faithful
Go and breathe hope in everybody when it's painful
Be graceful
Never let your guard down, this is what you came for
I will never fade to nothing, be a star among the night
When you feel you're not enough, just go and look into the sky
And I'll be there
[Pre-Chorus]
There's no time
Let me save you, it's alright
I lived my truth

I'll do what it takes, yeah
Just set your heart, set your heart a-
Never run, never hide, legends never die
Feel the burn, come alive, lighting up the night
I'll do what it takes, yeah
So just set your heart ablaze
Never done, never cry, look into my eyes
You would do the same for me, this is just my time
I'll do what it takes
Just set your heart, set your heart ablaze
