Saint Cecilia

by Holding Absence

Lyrics
The perfect cadence that I wish I could complete
You take me by surprise and sweep me off my feet
I've spent a lifetime thinking you and I should meet
You're in my eyeline every time I dream

Here's the thing
You make my heart sing

Cecilia, I've lost your love
I've given up
I've had enough
Saint Cecilia, I tried my best, but in the end, nothing ever was enough
I've given up

And nowadays, I am nailed to your stave
I used to sleep for days
And now I'm wide awake
But what is there for you to do
When the thing that you live for is dying beside you?

That's the thing
You break my heartstrings

Cecilia, I've lost your love
I've given up
I've had enough
Saint Cecilia, I tried my best, but in the end, nothing ever was enough
I've given up

Here's the thing
I tried my best, but in the end, nothing ever was enough
I've given up
Saint Cecilia, I tried my best, but in the end, nothing ever was enough
I've given up
