Jinx

About Jinx

A song about punishment, low self-esteem, and being ‘cursed’. “Jinx” sees a narrator who is in constant grief; he is in emotional and/or physical misery and he suffers due to someone who was previously in love with him. The narrator knows he is cursed and reluctantly accepts his suffering while knowing that people around him might also be affected. Also, the song directly leads into “Haushinka”. .
