    My sister bought me this album for my birthday...and later took me to my first concert ever to see Killswitch. It was awesome, being 16 yrs old and getting two cases of free monster energy drinks at the end of show! It's one of my memories of her that I will charish forever, love you sis.

    I bought this album right upon it’s release in 2006 and I’ve listened to “My Curse” literally hundreds of times, but I still sometimes get chills when I hear the main riff of it kick in right after the more laid back intro. By the time Howard joins in with that ear-drum splintering growl I’m supercharged with emotion. This song is SO POWERFUL! 0:34

    Hoping to see you again
    This is my curse (We're longing)
    This is my curse (Too)
    This is my curse (We're yearning)
    This is my curse
    There is love
    Burning to find you
    Will you wait for me?
    Will you be there?
    Your silence haunts me
    But still I longer for you
    This is my curse (We're waiting)
    This is my curse (Too)
    This is my curse (The meeting)
    This is my curse
    There is love
    Burning to find you
    Will you wait for me?
    Still I want
    And still I ache
    But still I wait
    To see you again
    Dying inside
    These walls
    Dying inside
    These walls
    And I see your face
    In these tears
    In these tears
    And I see your face

    3:00 was one of the most life changing moments in music for me when i was "young"-er. its strikingly beautiful in the midst of all the distorted guitars and screams, its like finding the most beautiful oasis in the middle of some desert. is maybe even more than that, it feels like a completely different song stuck inside of another, yet working perfectly as the only piece that could ever fit that puzzle. weirdly placed but fitting. the key change or whatever is just so great, such a nostalgic song.

    This song could be viewed from several perspectives, two that come to mind are that the view is from a man who is driven to dementia, furiously working to rebuild the memory of a loved one. This is represented by the his meticulous construction of the library, and only once all the pieces are placed correctly does he recall the memory of his loved one.
    My personal thoughts are that this song is about being locked up in prison, and the memory of the loved one is the only thing that gives hope and a reason to keep going (...and I see your face, through these tears...)
    May be wrong on both counts. Either way, this track is raw emotion and a masterpiece in its own right.

    Since everyone is sharing, might as well share.
    Back when I was in high school, I didn’t have any to take me to school on Mondays and I didn’t like taking the bus. So I would either walk or take my bike to school. I remember always enjoying this song as I rode my bike to school.
    Now, I enjoy this song in my car on my way home from work.

      kalau Anda membandingkan dengan era 60 - 90an. jelas jauh lebih berkualitas era jadoel. Saya rasa era sekarang banyak lagu yang sudah mulai terasa komersil sekali. menggunakan formula2 yang sebelumnya digunakan lagu² yg ratingnya tinggi. misalnya lagi hits EDM, kemudian semua dipaksa menjadi lagu EDM dan seterusnya. Menurut saya era skrg yang kualitasnya bagus adalah tehnik audio recording mixing dan masteringnya makanya terdengar lebih enak. tapi secara musikalitas? jauh sekali. sekarang coba saja Anda nonton youtube channel REACT. dan cari episode lagu tahun 70an 80an 90an, disitu banyak orang yang merasa lagunya atau suara penyanyinya sangat familiar, kenapa? karna jaman itu keunikan justru ditonjolkan dibandingkan sekarang yang lebih berhati-hati dan ngikutin rating sebelumnya. Makanya ada istilah ironis, jaman dulu dengan alat terbatas bisa menghasilkan kreativitas yang luar biasa. saat ini, dengan alat yang luar biasa tapi menghasilkan kreativitas yang biasa saja.😀

    I wasnt a fan of them when i was a teen. I was/still am into death and black metal. But i had friends who loved this band. So I have some really beautiful memories attached to these songs.

    God I love killswitch. I remember when I first heard this song back in 2006. My best fiends mom would pick us up after school, we would go to his house and eat mac n cheese, play gears of war, and listen to this song. Now I’m waking up and packing my kids lunches and heading off to work. Love you kse😁
