Dreams are a curse, wake up! You're alive!
I took this two ways:
1: nightmares are haunting (cursing) you but you wake up and your fine, your alive
2: dreams are showing you an amazing place that you could be in, but it's not reality. It's cursing you by showing you an amazing place that you can't be in.
Tell me if you took this line any other ways

I stumbled upon your cover of Drown by Bring Me The Horizon, and I must say you are an incredible artist. I love that you write and express the corners of your mind through your music. I highly respect that. As you rise to fame, don't forget who you are. Stay true to your roots and fight the good fight. As you say, to the devil on your shoulder. You are a special artist. xoxo -ash

Wow, I just discovered this song tonight and I’ve almost never had such an immense reaction to a song on my very first listen. The depth and power to the lyrics of this song are absolutely amazing. The contrast between the optimism you want to feel for being broken and struggling but you’re becoming stronger because of it and feeling like you’re failing to be the person you can be because of the very same events is just captured so well. Antidote was my introduction to Faith and I liked the song, but after that I just sort of forgot about her. I don’t think I will this time.

Lyrics!
[Verse 1]
Beautiful silence
Beautiful pain
We're only human
We're meant to dream
Lost in a life full of mistakes
We do what feels right
Then fall with no grace
Chased by the sun
Escaping flatlines
Dreams are a curse
Wake up you're alive
[Chorus]
Oh slowly fading from the misery
I've accepted who I'm supposed to be
I've accepted who I'm supposed to see
Lady in the mirror
Oh everyday I'm getting a bit older
And every time I break I get stronger
Everyday it's getting a bit colder
When I grow closer
To the devil on my shoulder
To the devil on my shoulder
[Verse 2]
Beautiful silence
Beautiful pain
Beautiful people
But we're all stained
Lost in a life
Full of mistakes
We do what feels right
Then we fall with no grace
I'mma sinner
I'mma tainted saint
I'mma savior
It's all the same
Chased by the sun
Escaping flatlines
Dreams are a curse
Wake up you're alive
[Chorus]
Oh slowly fading from the misery
I've accepted who I'm supposed to be
I've accepted who I'm supposed to see
Lady in the mirror
Oh everyday I'm getting a bit older
And every time I break I get stronger
Everyday it's getting a bit colder
When I grow closer
To the devil on my shoulder
To the devil on my shoulder
[Bridge]
We're all broken, it's fate
It's the way that we're made
All the pieces are there
They just aren't in there place
So I struggle to stand
But don't ask for a hand
My pride tells me no
You're better alone
I'm uncomfortably numb
As I stuff what I've found
And I start to shut down
Freeze in front of a crowd
It's what I don't say
I don't love I don't hate
Closing my mouth and turning my face
But it's no way to live to have nothing to give
Consuming the doubt
Not letting them in
But I'm not here to win
To survive but I'm already dead
So I picked up my head
[Chorus]
Oh everyday I'm getting a bit older
Everyday it's getting a bit colder oh
Oh everyday I'm getting a bit older
Everyday it's getting a bit colder
When I grow closer
To the devil on my shoulder
To the devil on my shoulder
