Crosses
Zed Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Don't you know that
I'll be around to guide you?
Through your weakest moments
To leave them behind you
Returning nightmares
Only shadows
We'll cast some light and you'll be alright
We'll cast some light and you'll be alright
For now
Crosses all over
Heavy on your shoulders
The sirens inside you
Waiting to step forward
Disturbing silence
Darkens your sight
We'll cast some light and you'll be alright
We'll cast some light and you'll be alright for now
Crosses all over the boulevard
Crosses all over the boulevard
Crosses all over the boulevard
Crosses all over the boulevard
The streets outside your window
Over-flooded
People staring
They know you've been broken
Repeatedly reminded
By the looks on their faces




Ignore them tonight and you'll be alright
We'll cast some light and you'll be alright

Güzel şarkı. çok güzel şarkı.
