Breaking the Curse*

To the tune of Breaking the Habit by Linkin Park.

Memories consume
Like the opening the wounds
You all assume
I’m safe here at Hogwarts
(Unless I dream again...)

I don’t want to be the one
The battles’ excruciating
Cause inside I realize
That I’m the one confused

I don’t know what’s worth fighting for
Or why I have to scream
I don’t know why I’m in a rage
And shout what I don’t mean
I don’t know how I got this way
I know it’s not alright
So I’m breaking the curse
Tonight

Clutching my heart
I tightly lock the door
I try to uphold consciousness again
Deaths torment me more
Than anytime before
I had no options left again

I’ll defeat Voldemort
Because he’s the one at fault
The prophecy tells me so
And this is how it’ll end

I don’t know what’s worth fighting for
Or why I have to scream
But now I have some clarity
On how to regain peace
I don’t know how I got this way
I know it’s not alright
So I’m
Breaking the curse
Breaking the curse
Tonight

( *-Curse is the connection of Harry to the Dark Lord )
