    When he says "And I heard you said one time that I never even fucking cross your mind, and I guess I'll act like that's fine. But you should know that you cross mine all the time" it crushes me

    This song has 8 lines and and it still says more than most artists in the charts say in an entire album. So simple, so good.

    "And I've heard you said one time
    That I never even fucking cross your mind
    and I guess I'll act like that's fine
    but you should know that you, cross mine all the time"
    This hits me right where it hurts. Perfect explanation.

    Im not an emotional person. but yesterday I saw an ex of two years ago, we were together for a while and very engaged in eachothers life, it was a shock to see her so I smiled and waved, and she didnt even recognise who I was. I am cold git at times but I felt a twinge when I listened to this song.

    • @joepopppa
      @joepopppa 9 лет назад +7

      Matthew Lloyd im literally in the same position as you. she works at the mall near my house where i go sometimes and when we see each other its like she doesn't know who i am. we were together for 2 years and a half and she was a big part of my life we were each others' firsts... Joanna thanks for teaching me what love was but fuck you for teaching me what a heartbreak was also!

    @Chris kerekes Chris, I literally jammed this the week you put it up on RUclips. I became friends with Mat after that and we've kept in touch ever since meeting in Toronto for Ciz' first show there. Can't believe this has over 1M views, but at the same time I'm not surprised. Crazy to think all there was back then was this track and the one EP. Cheers brother!
