A recorded reading of “If I Come Back, It’s as a Curse”. If the player does not load, use the original audio source.
Don’t wait for flowers or fragile grace— I’ll return with a haunted face. No longer soft, no longer kind, a whisper sharp enough to blind. If I return, it won’t be love— just a shadow you’re thinking of.
Lyrics
You thought I’d stay buried In soft regret But darling, I rise With teeth you’ll never forget I wept in shadows But not for long Now every tear’s A witch’s song You called it over I called it sleep But dead things dream And shadows keep If I come back It’s as a curse A name you speak That makes it worse Not a girl But ghost in silk Dagger tongue And poison milk If I come back It won’t be sweet I’ll wear my vengeance On quiet feet I kissed the dirt Where you laid me down But I bloom in black And wear a crown You buried love But not my wrath Now every breath Is aftermath You thought it ended You closed the door But I became What you ignored If I come back It’s as a curse A name you speak That makes it worse Not a girl But ghost in silk Dagger tongue And poison milk If I come back It won’t be sweet I’ll wear my vengeance On quiet feet I don’t forgive I just become A spell undone A shadow sun If I come back It’s not for love But to remind What you’re made of I’ll haunt in lace And speak in flame I don’t need peace I need a name
