Crazy Love
The Cringe Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Are you outta your mind
Are you outta your head
Are you already lost
Was it something I said
When you look to the left
When you look to the right
Are you making a stand
I ain't picking a fight

Are you waiving a flag
Are you calling a foul
When the going gets bad
I won't throw in the towel
Are you watching the clock
Are you keeping the score
I give all that I've got
Then I give even more

We all find time for crazy love
We all go blind from crazy love

In the corner I wait
In the shadows you hide
I get stuck in the rain
And you're always inside
Never know what you do
When you're out on your own
Always looking around
You never answer the phone

When you knock on the door
When you finally come back
Never show you my hand
Cause my deck is stacked
So I tell you to leave
Said it's never the same
All the craziest loves
Always make you insane

All alone in a crowded space
Time to go, gonna leave this place
Then I see you in the light
Gonna find you in the night

When the moon is up ahead
I believe everything that you said




Then the sun creeps into view
Nothing is the same about you

Overall Meaning

The Cringe's song "Crazy Love" is a song about the ups and downs of being in a relationship. The song is asking the question of whether or not the other person is crazy, or if they are not reciprocating the same kind of love. The lyrics "Are you outta your mind, Are you outta your head, Are you already lost, Was it something I said" implies that the singer is asking if they did something wrong to cause confusion or separation in the relationship. They then follow up by saying "When you look to the left, When you look to the right, Are you making a stand, I ain't picking a fight", which shows that they are not looking for an argument, but instead they want to know what is going on in the other person's mind.


The song then asks other questions, such as "Are you watching the clock, Are you keeping the score, I give all that I've got, Then I give even more", which implies that one person is putting in more effort than the other. The chorus then speaks to the idea that love can make us do crazy things, such as going blind from it and finding time for it. The bridge of the song then shifts to a more personal experience, talking about getting stuck in the rain while the other person is always inside and never answering the phone. The song then ends with the observation that the craziest loves are the ones that make us insane.
