The Curse
To Kill Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

The path was chosen...
You said it was just a phase, that's the way out.
I won't let you talk your shit.
They are still the things i love the most.
There never was much hope for us, i know,
Maybe not even one, but i know i won't let it fade.
I still live it my own way
You never did, you never will.
In the end i will have one thing to believe,
You'll go down the drain.




I'll take back what's mine! Take back.
We'll take back what's ours! Take back

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to the To Kill song "The Curse" express a sense of determination and defiance in the face of detractors who questioned the path that the writer has chosen. Despite the doubts of others, the writer remains committed to their own vision, and is unwilling to let anyone talk down to them or diminish their passion. The lines "You said it was just a phase, that's the way out / I won't let you talk your shit" suggest that the writer has faced criticism from those who do not believe in their dreams, but is determined to prove them wrong. Similarly, the line "I still live it my own way / You never did, you never will" expresses a sense of individuality and self-determination that sets the writer apart from those who do not share their values.


The chorus of the song takes on a more aggressive tone, with the writer declaring that they will "take back what's mine" and "take back what's ours". This suggests that the writer feels that their passion and creativity have been diminished or taken away by others, and that it is now time to reclaim what is rightfully theirs. The line "In the end I will have one thing to believe, you'll go down the drain" implies that the detractors will ultimately be proven wrong and will suffer the consequences of their lack of faith, while the writer will emerge victorious.


Overall, "The Curse" is a song about standing up for one's own beliefs and refusing to let others diminish one's passion or creativity. It is a rallying cry for those who have faced criticism or doubt, and a call to action for those who are determined to pursue their dreams.

I love how Voldemort's pronunciation gets less and less understandable until he ends up just shouting "AAAAAAAAA"

No wonder he couldn’t kill Harry. He’s saying it wrong! It’s KedAvra, not KedavrA.

Isnt this scene missing the Avada Kedavra from where draco friend says it to hermoine and then Ron says " thats my girlfriend" . The scene before they get chased by a big flaming Voldemort??

Snape's Avada Kadavra makes me cry. There is power in the voice but at the same time it's heartbreaking as he doesn't want to do it. Oh, my poor heart. 😭
