Holiness, or sanctity, is in general the state of being holy (perceived by religious individuals as associated with the divine) or sacred (considered worthy of spiritual respect or devotion; or inspiring awe or reverence among believers in a given set of spiritual ideas). In other contexts, objects are often considered 'holy' or 'sacred' if used for spiritual purposes, such as the worship or service of gods. These terms can also be used in a non-spiritual or semi-spiritual context ("sacred truths" in a constitution). It is often ascribed to people ("a holy man" of religious occupation, "holy prophet" who is venerated by his followers), objects ("sacred artifact" that is venerated and blessed ), times ("holy days" of spiritual introspection, such as during winter holidays), or places ("sacred ground", "holy place").
The word "sacred" descends from the Latin sacrum, which referred to the gods or anything in their power, and to sacerdos, priest; sanctum, set apart. It was generally conceived spatially, as referring to the area around a temple.

Don't forget which way you go

Won't you please you please a place for me
I could prove that bitch is holy but
It would be the one that told me that
Life is not pure misery
Will you please you please a place for me
Heaven forbid familiarity
Would keep me from Your magesty, reality
And Lord of Your proximity to me
And Your beckoning, oh Lord, for me to be
Holy, holy, holy as You are
Holy, holy, holy, holy
I need Your mercy, I need Your grace
Harmony always, when I look around me
And your smile I see,
I can feel it surround me.
A miracle I find in your company.
One glance is all that I need.
What I was searching for, I've found it.
Can you believe it, I'm walking on water
And I'm high off the ground.
Must be some mystique that weaves it.
I'd never have thought of this power I've found.
One glance is all that I need.
What I was searching for, I've found it.
One look, and now I believe
I could just wrap my whole self around it.

Holy, to me, just one glance is holy.
One touch of your heart, to me, that's holy.

Compared to a life on the run
Holy, the face of God appears to be

Another city glazed, carelessly placed
Withered and waiting for trial
And now we will see how swift judgement can be

Slowly, hold me in your arms, appease them
Solely, forgive what I've done

Even a god can be wrong
This Virgin of peace
Is down on her knees
Begging for Death to move on

Holy Mother Mary, let them know that
Slowly, hold me in your arms, appease them
Solely, forgive what I've done

that holy breeze is said to hit all the deadheads
give me a cool holy name
and I will sing it everyday
holy ghosts in a sheet
when it gets lifted will we see
what a pretty ghost she can be
we'll bring our gear to the holy land
Holy – Kadril
Silence sings a sweet phrase
Got you in my suitcase
I will take you everywhere I go
Sailing on a soft breeze
Breaking waves of memories
Telling tales that no one ever told
Holy was the night and heaven was the day
I never learned to smile this way
Listen to the mermaids
Songs that make your heart break
I never learned to sing this way
Watch the steps I’m taking
See the stars you’re making
I am not the air for you to breathe
Catch the moon he’s falling
Hear the sun she’s calling
They haven’t got the answers that we need
Holy was the night and heaven was the day
I never learned to smile this way
Listen to the mermaids
Songs that make your heart break
I never learned to sing this way
Catch the moon he’s falling
Hear the sun she’s calling
Telling tales that no one ever told
Silence sings its sweet phrase
Singing with the mermaids
Two days pass by
All the while with the wind and the rain
Another day moves along
I'll wait one more just the same
I had a tryst with a woman
Who rides bareback and steers my mane
She carries with her things I need
Holy is her name
Holy where can you be
If I pray will I be able to see
Holy come set me free
The harder you ride the softer your fall will be
Have you seen the girl
that holds the world inside her heart
Running on stones layed in her mind
Moving from stop to start
I had a dream
that she was standing in a corner bedroom
Staring out the window with her face against the glass
Warm as summer's sun
Pure as the driven snow
Five A.M. the sun is shining
I could barely sleep
I look up and to my surprise
stands Holy at my feet
Her dress torn Her skin was dirty
I could hardly believe
When she told me how some man had stolen
I could lift my hands and sing Your praises
But that? s not justice for who You are
Lamb of God, I worship You
Not for what You? ve done but for who You are
And I? ve found out life? s worth living
Happy are they that are found in You
I see You and I see all I am 'cause You are
Holy, holy, the God of my will and my salvation
You are holy
Holy, King of my desires
You are holy
You gave Your Son, so noble of a cause
To save all of Your lost
And by Your purpose in election now stands
Not by works I? ve done but by Your sovereign hand
And I? ve found out life? s worth living
Happy are they that are found in You
I see You and I see all I am 'cause You are
'Cause you are holy, holy
The God of my will and my salvation
You are holy
Holy, King of my desires
Holy, holy, the God of my will and my salvation
You are holy
Holy, King of my desires
I am a whore so I sleep with boys
It isn't nice I chose this life
They're all suckers
I live the life I pay the price
I live the life I pay the price
Ask my mother
But there you stand morally unscathed
Telling me how to behave
I'm the sinner
I'm not the girl I used to be
I'm not the girl I used to be
But I am holy
I don't need to go to church
'Cause I am holy
I don't need to preach your dirt
'Cause I am holy
I don't need to go to school
'Cause I am holy
I don't need to read your rules
'Cause I am holy
'Cause I am holy
Call me sinner I don't care
'Cause I am holy
I won't let you take me there
'Cause I am holy
I'm not the girl I used to be
I'm not the gilr I used to be
I am holy
I am a whore so I sleep with boys
It isn't nice I pay the price
But there you stand morally unscathed
Telling me how to behave
I am holy
Life's a see-saw, see-saw
It's a see-saw, see-saw
It's a see-saw, see-saw
What the hell do you take me for
God's out still throwing stones
All your man-made gods and your guilded thrones
I am holy
'Cause I am holy
Under no illusion
I reserve the right to be incorrect sometimes
Under no illusion
I reserve the right to be incorrect sometimes
(Taking part)
Teach my future what you want
(Ah, can't slow me down)
Money would cease when I was sleepin' in the early morn
When they were plannin' out my destiny
(Ah, can't bring me down)
Money was saved to see what they'd invest in me
Next step is all beginning
Save us from our sins
(Here I am)
As I'm lookin' toward the prison yard
Old school, Bell's Hell
This reminds me of the smell
(I am holy)
I'm the guarantee of the whole think-up
Takin' newer heights
New heights lose attention
(Yes I am)
You're thinkin' you need another dimension
I'm just here to let you know
How to plant your seeds
And watch them die, then grow
Starts off a brash talk inside
(And there you stand morrally unscathed)
as they put the razzes on the tunnels around
(Telling me how to behave)
I was lookin' for a little hope
When he was livin' a dream
and the others smote
So don't point your fingers at me
(I am holy)
Take a look at yourself
When you was sinnin' I was climbing trees
Yes we are holy
Sinners you don't know me
So don't tell me I'm not holy
It's a see-saw, see-saw
It's a see-saw, see-saw
It's a see-saw, see-saw
It's a see-saw, see-saw
It's a see-saw, see-saw
Life's a see-saw, see-saw
It's a see-saw, see-saw
It's a see-saw, see-saw
Bits of my guns are covered in blood
This town turned its back on the sun
Now they will see how swift judgement can be
Compared to a life on the run
Holy, the face of God appears to be
Holy, the face of God appeared to me
Another city glazed, carelessly placed
Withered and waiting for trial
And now we will see how swift judgement can be
When compared to a life of denial
Holy, the face of God appears to be
Holy, Mother Mary let them all die
Slowly, hold me in your arms and please
Console me, forgive what I've done
I'm your son, please don't send me to Hell
These visions you see
They're not what they seem
Even a God can be wrong
This Virgin of peace
Is down on her knees
Begging for Death to move on
Holy, the face of God appears to be
Holy, Mother Mary, let them all die
Slowly, hold me in your arms, appease them
Solely, forgive what I've done
I'm your son, please don't send me to Hell
Heaven forbid familiarity
Would keep me from Your magesty, reality
And Lord of Your proximity to me
And Your beckoning, oh Lord, for me to be
Holy, holy
Holy as You are
Holy, holy, holy, holy
I need Your mercy
I need Your grace
I need Your mercy, mercy, mercy
