The Haunting Struggle of a Cursed Soul

Ari Abdul's song "Cursed" delves into the haunting experience of feeling disconnected from oneself and the world. The lyrics paint a vivid picture of a person who feels as though they are floating outside their body, grappling with the temporary nature of existence. This sense of detachment is both frightening and disorienting, as the protagonist struggles to hold on to their sense of self. The repeated reassurance of "Don't worry, there's nothing wrong" contrasts sharply with the underlying turmoil, suggesting a deep internal conflict masked by a facade of calmness.

The recurring theme of a "dirty soul" and a "blurry reflection" symbolizes a tainted self-image and a loss of clarity in one's identity. The protagonist feels cursed, unable to escape the feeling of letting others down and being unworthy of salvation. The plea for saving, coupled with the belief that even angels won't take them, underscores a profound sense of hopelessness and isolation. Memories fading away further emphasize the erosion of the protagonist's connection to their past and their loved ones, heightening the sense of being lost.

Musically, Ari Abdul's style often blends haunting melodies with introspective lyrics, creating an atmosphere that mirrors the emotional depth of the song. "Cursed" is a poignant exploration of inner demons and the struggle to maintain a sense of self amidst overwhelming feelings of inadequacy and despair. The song resonates with anyone who has ever felt disconnected or burdened by their own perceived flaws, offering a raw and honest portrayal of the human condition.
