(Verse 1)
I found you in a thousand lives
Different faces, same blue eyes
Every time you slipped away
Like fate was written in decay
I swore this time I’d change the end
Be your shadow, not your sin
But every step I took too close
Turned your heartbeat into ghost
(Pre-Chorus)
I don’t need gods to damn my soul
I did it all on my own
(Chorus)
I’m the curse of you
Every breath you lose
Every scar, every broken truth
Leads back to me and what I do
I’m the fall, the flame, the knife
Running through your every life
If I love you, you don’t survive
I’m the curse… I’m the curse of you
(Verse 2)
I caged you once, I called it love
Built you a world you couldn’t touch
You looked at me like I was war
Not the man you saw before
I gave you freedom wrapped in lies
Watched you fade before my eyes
Every version, every end
I lose you just the same again
(Pre-Chorus)
I tried to save what I destroy
But I’m the dark behind your joy
(Chorus)
I’m the curse of you
Every breath you lose
Every scar, every broken truth
Leads back to me and what I do
I’m the fall, the flame, the knife
Running through your every life
If I love you, you don’t survive
I’m the curse… I’m the curse of you
(Bridge – softer, broken)
So I disappear into the night
No more hands, no more right
If I vanish, you might live
If I love you… I must give
You your life… without me near
Even if that’s what I fear
(Final Chorus – rising, emotional)
Was I the curse of you
Or just too scared to lose?
If I step back, if I break through
Maybe I don’t destroy you
Maybe love is letting go
Even when it kills me slow
If I leave… you might survive
And for once… you stay alive
(Outro)
I’m still the shadow in your light
But I won’t reach you this time
