Grammar:

• I can't cross her from my memory

  ➔ Modal verb "can't" + verb "cross" + preposition "from"

  ➔ The structure implies an inability to forget someone. The preposition "from" specifies the origin or source of the removal. While grammatically understandable, it is not very common. It is a somewhat unusual phrasing; a more standard phrase might be "I can't erase her from my memory."

• She meant every word she said

  ➔ Past tense "meant", relative clause with omitted relative pronoun

  ➔ Here, "she said" modifies "every word". It means she was sincere in everything she expressed. The full form could be "She meant every word that she said".

• I'll never ever love again

  ➔ Future tense with "will", intensifier "ever", negative adverb "never"

  ➔ The use of "never ever" emphasizes the speaker's strong conviction. "Will" expresses a future intention or prediction.

• She marks the spot where I'm the weakest one

  ➔ Relative clause "where I'm the weakest one", superlative adjective "weakest"

  ➔ "Where" introduces a relative clause of place. "Weakest" is the superlative form of "weak", indicating the greatest degree of weakness.

• Don't cross her path, she still belongs to me

  ➔ Imperative "Don't cross", adverb "still", verb "belongs" + preposition "to"

  ➔ "Don't cross" is a command or warning. "Still" indicates that the situation remains unchanged. "Belongs to" indicates ownership or association.

• I'll be my ex 'til I say when

  ➔ Future tense "I'll be", conjunction "'til" (until), adverb "when" used as a noun

  ➔ "I'll be my ex" is a slightly unusual phrasing, meaning the speaker will continue to consider the person their ex. "'Til I say when" implies the speaker controls the duration of the ex status, turning "when" into a kind of noun representing the moment of change.

• Guess I'm better off this way

  ➔ Ellipsis (omission of 'I'), comparative adjective "better", adverbial phrase "this way"

  ➔ The sentence implies the speaker is making an assumption or conclusion. "Better off" indicates an improved situation, and "this way" specifies how that improvement is achieved.
