This realization was part of the inspiration behind the new Aventine album by Agnes Obel, who said:
We apply so much symbolic meaning to things. Humans do that all the time, it’s like the curse of being a human but also a blessing because a lot of beautiful things come out of it. We put meaning into random things.”
How we interpret these cues can be our “Curse” or blessing in disguise.
Tell me now the very souls who look alike, look alike
Do you know the stranglehold covering their eyes?
If I called on every soul, in the land, on the moon
tell me if I’ll ever know, a blessing in disguise
The curse moved from the underground down by the shore
And we’ll all grow, even hunger, to live unlike before
The curse moved from the underground down by the shore
And we’ll all grow, even hunger, to live unlike before
– Agnes Obel
