When someone has their fingers crossed it could either mean they are hoping for a certain outcome in a situation or that they are lying, the song Fingers Crossed, is about the latter. The singer tells (or rather sings) about her ex, they start off with detailing the good parts of their relationship, and then out of nowhere states “Funny, now I hate you”. This out of seemingly nowhere changes the entire direction the song is going, while at first it seems like the singer is regretting their breakup and wishing it could of gone differently all of a sudden it about how much they hate their ex, while the song is still about regret, its something else they are regretting, and that is the time and tears they wasted on the ex. The fingers crossed in the song comes from how when the ex said they loved them, they had their fingers crossed, in other words, when the ex said they loved them, they were lying. One thing worth mentioning is the ‘blinded by love’ theme in the song, the singer mentions how their friends said they should end the relationship, but they did not listen, and thus not trusting their friends, is added to their long list of regrets. Overall, this song was really good, and I’d give it about 8/10.
