Holy Water
Galantis Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Down from this high
High as a waterfall
If hearts could fly
Want you to breathe
Breathe next to me
Caught in this lullaby
Sing it to me
I wanna drown in your holy water
You know a sin never felt so good
I wanna drown in your holy water
A-amen (a-amen, a-amen)
I wanna drown in your holy water
You know a sin never felt so—
I'm all shook up
Shook up on you
We burn like fireflies
Burn baby blue
'Cause I'm so deep
Deep into you
You are my church tonight
My holy view
I wanna drown in your holy water
You know a sin never felt so good
I wanna drown in your holy water
A-amen (a-amen, a-amen)
I wanna drown in your holy water
You know a sin never felt so good
I wanna drown in your holy water
A-amen
You know a sin never felt so—
(You know a sin never felt so good)
The lyrics to Galantis's song Holy Water portray passionate love and the desire to immerse oneself entirely in that love. The first stanza talks about a high that is as high as a waterfall, with the singer wanting the person they love to be next to them, caught in a lullaby. The chorus talks about how the singer wants to drown in their holy water, despite knowing that it is a sin, and it never felt so good. The second stanza talks about how the singer is all shook up on the person they love and how being with them feels like burning like fireflies. The singer is deep into the person they love and that they are their church tonight, with their holy view.
The lyrics convey the feelings of being in love with someone and wanting to be completely immersed in them. The "holy water" mentioned in the chorus can be interpreted as the person's love, which the singer wants to experience fully, regardless of the consequences. The line "You know a sin never felt so good" is a nod to the idea that although love might be considered a sin, it can feel so good that it's worth it. The use of religious imagery like "holy" and "Amen" also adds to the intensity of the emotion portrayed in the song.
