"Reverse The Curse" lyrics

"Reverse The Curse"

In the tortures of the damned
Specters crowd the den
Breath down the shadows
This was never the plan

Reverse the curse

This is the turning of the tides
This is a manageable vice
A new old habit
I've got nothing to hide

Reverse the curse

Beyond all pleasures and woes
Beyond this labour of love
We will find the world we wanted
And feel the current of life
Deep within our bones

On a bed of aging nails
Hot and cold by the turns
A fistic talk with godhood
Static through the veil

Reverse the curse

This is the meadow of the flies
Endless hum we praise
Pulling out our tongues
Secret language in disguise

Reverse the curse

Beyond all pleasures and woes
Beyond this labour of love
We will find the world we wanted
And feel the current of life
Deep within our bones

"Reverse The Curse" is the second single from Alexisonfire's studio album "Otherness". The song was premiered on April 27, 2022. Vocalist George Pettit explained, "This song was 'Young Cardinals'. The original version of 'Young Cardinals' was the riff from this song, and we—we actually played a version of 'Young Cardinals' in Hamilton. That was this song. One time. And then we scraped it because we were cowards, because we thought—we thought that it was like too much like Kyuss worship of something like that, that we were venturing off the path a bit too much. We were like, 'This isn't who we are. We should do something different.'" He also added, "So, fast-forward to out making this record: Alexisonfire has a new-found confidence and, um, we do whatever the fuck we want now. So, we decided to bring this one back and play it and I think it turned out great 'cause I always loved it."
