The Curse
Xorcist Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Weightless against the void
Which cascades silence
And magnifies space
And time
What is real, is illusion
To dream is to walk
The thin fine line...
Come with me
To dream
Come with me
To believe
Be with me
Together
Be with me
Forever
The lyrics to Xorcist's song "The Curse" delve into the themes of fear, loneliness, and the blurring line between reality and dreams. The verse "Scared and alone, weightless against the void" portrays a sense of vulnerability and isolation, as the individual finds themselves adrift in an empty space. The following lines "Which cascades silence and magnifies space and time" further emphasize the overwhelming vastness of this void, creating a sense of insignificance and smallness.
The lyrics then introduce the idea that what is perceived as real may actually be an illusion, suggesting that reality itself can sometimes be unreliable. This notion is captured in the line "To dream is to walk the thin fine line," implying that dreams can offer an alternate version of reality that is just as valid, if not more so.
The chorus invites someone to join the singer in their dreams and invites them to believe in the power of dreams. The repetition of "Come with me" and "Be with me" emphasizes the desire for companionship and connection, suggesting that the act of dreaming together can strengthen these bonds. The final line "Be with me forever" encapsulates the longing for a lasting bond that transcends the limitations of the physical world.
Line by Line Meaning
Scared and alone
Feeling frightened and isolated
Weightless against the void
Having a sense of insignificance in a vast emptiness
Which cascades silence
An overwhelming quietness that flows
And magnifies space
And amplifies the vastness of the surroundings
And time
As well as the passage of time
What is real, is illusion
What is perceived as reality is merely a deception
To dream is to walk
The act of dreaming is like a journey
The thin fine line...
A precarious boundary between different states of existence
Come with me
Join me on this journey
To dream
To explore the realm of imagination
Come with me
Accompany me
To believe
To have faith in something greater
Be with me
Stay by my side
Together
In unity
Be with me
Remain with me
Forever
For an eternity
