My Curse

In 'My Curse,' Divide Music delves into the complex emotions of a protagonist grappling with a powerful and potentially destructive force within themselves. The song opens with a poignant scene where the protagonist holds a loved one, promising to stay despite the world's growing coldness. This sets the stage for a narrative about internal conflict and the struggle to protect those they care about from their own dark side. The repeated imagery of holding and letting go underscores the tension between the desire to stay close and the fear of causing harm.

The chorus reveals the protagonist's curse, a metaphor for an inner power or burden that is both a source of strength and a potential threat. This duality is evident as the protagonist acknowledges that while the curse grows stronger, it will not define them. Instead, they choose to harness this power for a noble cause: to protect and save others. This self-sacrificial theme is a common trope in hero narratives, where the protagonist must balance their own struggles with their duty to others.

As the song progresses, the protagonist's resolve hardens. They accept their curse and the responsibilities it brings, vowing to end the war they are facing. The aggressive tone in the latter part of the song, with lines like 'One more step and you will see / Your blood pour out, you filthy born disease!' highlights the intensity of their commitment to this cause. The song concludes with a sense of determination and acceptance, as the protagonist embraces their curse as a tool for justice and protection, rather than a source of fear.
