The Curse
Agnes Obel Lyrics
And the people went into their hide, they oh
From the start they didn't know exactly why, why
Winter came and made it so all look alike, look alike
Underneath the grass would grow, aiming at the sky
It was swift, it was just, another wave of a miracle
But no one, nothing at all would go for the kill
If they called on every soul in the land, on the moon
Only then would they know a blessing in disguise
The curse ruled from the underground down by the shore
And their hope grew with a hunger to live unlike before
The curse ruled from the underground down by the shore
And their hope grew with a hunger to live unlike before
Tell me now of the very souls that look alike, look alike
Do you know the stranglehold covering their eyes?
If I call on every soul in the land, on the moon
Tell me if I'll ever know a blessing in disguise
The curse ruled from the underground down by the shore
And their hope grew with a hunger to live unlike before
And the curse ruled from the underground down by the shore
And their hope grew with a hunger to live unlike before

And the people went into their hide, ay-oh
From the start they didn't know exactly why, why
Winter came and made it so all look alike, look alike
Underneath the grass would grow, aiming at the sky
It was swift, it was just another wave of a miracle
But no one, nothing at all would go for the kill
If they called on every soul in the land, on the moon
Only then would they know a blessing in disguise
The curse ruled from the underground, down by the shore
And their hope grew with a hunger to live unlike before
The curse ruled from the underground, down by the shore
And their hope grew with a hunger to live unlike before
Tell me now of the very soul that look alike, look alike
Do you know the stranglehold covering their eyes?
If I call on every soul in the land, on the moon
Tell me if I'll ever know a blessing in disguise
The curse ruled from the underground, down by the shore
And their hope grew with a hunger to live unlike before
And the curse ruled from the underground, down by the shore
And their hope grew with a hunger to live unlike before

And the people went to the high hill, oh-a-ai
From the start they didn't know exactly why, why
Winter came and made it so all look alike, look alike
Underneath the grass would grow, aiming at the sky
It was swift, it was just, another wave of a miracle
But no one, nothing at all would go for the kill
If they called on every soul in the land, on the moon
Only then would they know a blessing in disguise
The curse rule from the underground down by the shore
Where all grow even hunger to live unlike before
The curse rule from the underground down by the shore
Where all grow even hunger to live unlike before
Tell me now of the very soul, look alike, look alike
Do you know the stranglehold covering their eyes?
If I call on every soul in the land, on the moon
Tell me if I'll ever know a blessing in disguise
The curse rule from the underground down by the shore
Where all grow even hunger to live unlike before
The curse rule from the underground down by the shore
Where all grow even hunger to live unlike before

All the comments are talking about the voice, but few are talking about this fantastic band and the talented violinist, pure perfection
Tevildo Calcifer
so good.
Richard Farrelly
@Charley I totally agree, cuz the lyrics in this song are DEEP and make you go like "oh shite" this is amazing. I hope she puts out more like this. Check out the lyrics in her song. 'Familiar'.
Torsten Roesler
I didn't. I adore all of them
Charley
even fewer are talking about the painfully relevant lyrics

Her live recording is phenomenal. I am honestly surprised Agnes Obel doesn't have more views. It would be incredible to see her live
