Overall Meaning

The Abyss's song "Cursed" is a dark and ominous track that delves into the realm of evil and the underworld. The lyrics are cryptic and open to interpretation, but they definitely convey a sense of darkness and malevolence. The song starts with the ominous line "I..." suggesting a certain self-awareness and introspection. This is followed by the word "awaken" which implies a coming into consciousness or a rising from a slumber. This enigmatic opening sets the tone for the rest of the song, which seems to be a meditation on wickedness and damnation.

The next lines of the song are "evil so far... of Hades." These words suggest that the singer sees himself as a creature of the underworld, perhaps even one of its rulers or inhabitants. The phrase "evil so far" implies a great depth of malevolence or wickedness, something that has been present for a long time or is deeply ingrained in the character's nature. The reference to Hades, the Greek god of the underworld, reinforces the theme of darkness and damnation.

The final line of the song is "...of Hell." This line seems to tie up the theme of the song and reaffirm the singer's connection to the darker realms. The repetition of the word "of" in both lines reinforces the sense of ownership or connection, as if the singer is intimately tied to the underworld and all its horrors.
