Sanctimonious

Casey's song 'Sanctimonious' delves deep into the themes of eternal love and the profound connection between two souls. The lyrics open with a poetic question to the Moon, pondering if it finds solace during an eclipse—a metaphor for moments of intimacy and respite from the world's gaze. This sets the tone for a song that explores the depth of emotional and spiritual bonds that transcend physical presence and time.

The song's narrator expresses a fear of waking up without the name of their beloved on their lips, a scenario so devastating that it would lead them to curse the divine. This intense emotion underscores the sanctity and irreplaceability of their love. The use of the word 'sanctimonious' here is ironic, as it typically refers to a hypocritical display of piety, yet the narrator's devotion is anything but hypocritical; it is genuine and all-consuming.

As the song progresses, it delves into the idea that each person contains a world within themselves, and even in separation, they remain interconnected. This concept of mutual existence within each other is a powerful testament to the enduring nature of their bond. The narrator vows to find their beloved in any lifetime, in any form, and in any circumstance, emphasizing an unbreakable connection that defies the limitations of the physical world. The repetition of 'You belong to me, and I to you' reinforces this eternal commitment, making 'Sanctimonious' a poignant ode to everlasting love and unity.
