Sad Lyrics

Isn't it "loneliness"? I think that makes more sense than "holiness." Hard to tell from listening, either or. The eleven nights line is my favorite.

"Holiness", makes perfect sense. The subject has become increasing holy since the passing of his lover. I imagine him laying in bed, crying, saying "please god, please bring her back". It's sad and his holiness is proof.
