the curse came back 💔🥀 (extremely raw and depressing piano remix)

+ Show full styles

[Intro, Sparse piano notes, Room noise, Exhausted breathy vocal]
I really thought it was gone

I thought maybe this time
Love had finally stayed

Then the room got quiet again

[Verse 1, Intimate close-mic vocal, Fragile sparse piano chords]
I still leave space beside me like somebody might come back
Still look down at my phone when the whole room turns black
I remember every promise even ones that couldn't stay
And every time somebody leaves, they all come back the same damn day
Not the people, just the memories, every ending in a line
Every version of myself that thought that love would work this time
I know I'm not really cursed, but when nobody's around
It's hard to hear the truth beneath that old familiar sound

[Pre-Chorus, Bare single piano notes, Long silences]
It says
Everybody leaves
It says
Don't believe
It says
You're gonna lose
Anyone you ever need

[Chorus, Piano slowly swelling in intensity, Tearful cracked vocal]
The curse came back
The second this room went quiet
And I hate how much I miss
Having somebody beside me
I don't want my life to end
I just want this fucking pain to
I want one love that doesn't disappear
Before I get used to saying I love you
The curse came back
And God, I'm tired of believing it

[Verse 2, Soft fragile piano, Breathy conversational delivery]
I don't need some perfect person from a movie or a dream
I just want somebody honest who still wants the real me
Someone I can text good morning, someone I can call at night
Someone who can see my worst days and still choose to treat me right
I wanna know what staying feels like without expecting it to end
I wanna love somebody deeply and still get to call them mine again
But tonight there's only silence and a pillow by the wall
And I hate that being lonely makes me question it all

[Pre-Chorus, Voice trembling, Minimal piano]
Was I too much?
Was I not enough?
Did I misunderstand
What everybody calls love?

Then a quieter voice says
You don't have to know tonight

[Chorus, Peak emotional piano swell, Anguished cracked vocal]
The curse came back
The second this room went quiet
And I hate how much I miss
Having somebody beside me
I don't want my life to end
I just want this fucking pain to
I want one love that doesn't disappear
Before I get used to saying I love you
The curse came back
And God, I'm tired of believing it

[Bridge, Collapse to bare piano notes, Exhausted vocal]
Maybe the saddest part
Is I still believe in love

After every goodbye
After every night like this
Some little part of me
Still hopes somebody stays

But tonight I don't need forever
I need somebody I trust to hear me say
I'm lonely
I'm hurting
And I'm really not okay

[Final Chorus, Deep resonance piano, Raw emotional vocal]
THE CURSE CAME BACK
But maybe it was never real
Maybe it's the name I gave
To every wound I haven't healed
I'm lonely as fuck tonight
And I wish somebody were here
But I don't want my story ending
Just because tonight hurts this severe

I want the pain to end
And someday I still want love
Someone I choose who chooses me
When ordinary days get tough
The curse came back
But it doesn't get forever

[Outro, Single fading piano key, Room tone, Fading breath]
I think that's what hurts the most

I still have so much love to give
And nowhere to put it tonight

And tomorrow
I'll try again

Goodnight
