Cursed

from Pure Destroyer by WAR PARTY

lyrics

So you say you wanna go for the most
But did you know you'd have to swallow it all at once?
The comments and the threads and the posts
So apropos of kudzu conquering the wall
And now our little ghost of the south
Has to watch her mouth
This is a seance after all
Let's conjure someone dead right now
They're easily found in entertainment after all

And so let's commence to the next act
In the show, now shall we?
It's a hole. It's cut. It's carved freshly in the shape
Of empathy exactly

It felt just like a blessing at first
But maybe it's a curse
Or even something worse
It felt just like a blessing at first
But maybe it's a curse
Or even something worse

And now you swear you have it figured out
Your north from south
Your tiny burden versus the weight of the world
But your lost even now
And just cause you pout
It doesn't mean you were hurt at all
A silent insurrection at first
Was over-rehearsed
Subtle details took the fall
Wait, time just wandered out with your purse
And I'm pretty sure
It went straight through the fourth wall

Of cold fear
Ain't nobody is growing old here
Without hurting somebody else
Coal clear
They're invisible like trolls
Typing away under a bridge

It felt just like a blessing at first
Maybe it's a curse
Or even something worse
It felt just like a blessing at first
But maybe it's a curse
Or even something worse
It drove just like a limo at first
But maybe it's a hearse
I'm thinking it's a hearse
It felt just like a blessing at first
But maybe it's a curse
Or even something worse

And so let's commence to the last act
In the show, now shall we?
Another hole but it's grown to swallow up
Reason and spit out fallacy

It felt just like a blessing at first
But maybe it's a curse
Or even something worse
It felt just like a blessing at first
But maybe it's a curse
Or even something worse
It drove just like a limo at first
But maybe it's a hearse
I'm thinking it's a hearse
It felt just like a blessing at first
But maybe it's a curse
Or even something worse

It's something worse
I know that it is
