Crossing The Line Lyrics

I've broken clean free off the leach now
I don't have to go and please you anymore
You fooled me fooled them fooled the whole crowd
You're not up on that cloud to look down anymore

I'm feelin alive
Now that no one is left at my side to drag me down
I'm crossing the line
And I'm takin all that is mine to carry on

Keep all your thoughts to yourself now
I don't need to trip on those words anymore
You blame me blame them blame the whole town
Don't you try to look down at me anymore

I'm feelin alive
Now that no one is left at my side to drag me down
I'm crossing the line
And I'm takin all that is mine to carry on

I'm feelin alive
I'm crossin the line
I'm feelin alive
I'm crossin the line

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

This sounds almost like he had a bad relationship and is glad it's over "I've broken clean free off the leash now" (by the way, it sound like "leash" not "leach"). He realizes just how bad it was and doesn't want to listen to whoever it was anymore, so he won't be tempted to go back "Keep all your thoughts to yourself now I don't need to trip on those words anymore." Now he feels free to do what he wants, instead of being held back by that relationship.
