Cursed

[Verse 1] Things always seemed to fall in line whatever I wanted somehow was mine. I tried, it worked, I fell, I learned, life kept saying, “you’ll be fine.” Every plan found solid ground, every dream came back around. And I thought that meant I’d earned it that luck was something I had found. [Pre-Chorus] But one day, effort lost its shine. And everything stopped on a dime. [Chorus] Now the air won’t move, the clock won’t care. They say soft words that hang in air. I gave it everything, I did what I was taught. I was blessed, I was brave but I’m cursed, after all. I am cursed after all. [Verse 2] They smiled and said the signs looked fine, their voices calm, their eyes so kind. But I could feel it in the silence the door was closed, the dream declined. I held my breath and nodded once, pretending I could take that hit. They said it wasn’t anyone’s fault but it still feels like it. [Pre-Chorus] I did my part, I thought I’d stay. Turns out all those wins had a bill to pay. [Chorus] Now the air won’t move, the clock won’t care. They say soft words that hang in air. I gave it everything, I did what I was taught. I was blessed, I was brave but I’m cursed, after all. I am cursed after all. [Bridge] There’s a space I never filled, a name I never used. I kept the hope, I kept the plan but I already knew… And every praise, each proof of strength, they don’t mean much today. I thought I had control of life Yet life had its own way… It fades… it fades… like I did that day. [Chorus] Now the air won’t move, the clock won’t care. They say soft words that hang in air. I gave it everything, I did what I was taught. I was blessed, I was brave but I’m cursed, after all. I am cursed after all. [Outro] They said it’s no one’s fault but it feels like mine. All my luck, all my grace, just ran out in time. This joy was never meant to stay, I’ve learned it now, the hardest way. I was blessed, I was brave now I’m cursed that way. Yeah, I’m cursed that way.
