Casey - Ceremony Lyrics






So thoroughly convinced that the product of persistence
Was a love that I'd been told of when I was just a kid
I was wed to my misery in the hope that at the ceremony
You'd interject, but you never did
Now seven years on, bitter and resentful
I still contemplate what I did to deserve
The glimpses of affection you used to distract me
As you were filing my teeth to the nerve

I know you were the death of me, but still in spite of everything
I hope that you are finding sleep while I still lay awake
Although my throat is burning now, it's still so quiet in the house
The emptiness you occupied is more than I can take

Tell me, are you ashamed?
Cause I felt alone and you watched as I decayed
I slipped through your hands as I faded
I've tried to forget
But your love will make a museum of me yet
I hope you know how long I've waited

Though reservoirs of self-disgust have swollen up inside my lungs
Pulmonary Oedema is no substitute for love
That once lay its head upon my chest, a comfort cradled motionless
But I have come undone. My love is not enough

I know it's hard to watch your light fade from my eyes
But darling for my sake you've got to let it die
My weathered hands have dug this grave enough
It's time for us to bury our love

Tell me, are you ashamed?
Cause I felt alone and you watched as I decayed
I slipped through your hands as I faded
I've tried to forget
But your love will make a museum of me yet
I hope you know how long I've waited

    im so fucking fuming that they are no longer together i found out about these after they broke up and i listen to "Love is not enough" regularly, this is by far one of my favourite songs!

    Tell me, are you ashamed?
    'Cause I felt alone and you watched as I decayed
    I slipped through your hands as I faded
    I've tried to forget
    But your love will make a museum of me yet
    I hope you know how long I've waited

    literally hate that i cant come see this performed live.

  2. M.... M....

    in the lyrics at the end it says :"it kills me to say I'm still waiting" but actually they keep saying:"I hope you know how long I've waited" so is hat a mistake from the band or they randomly wrote another end of the song?

  3. b.... E....

    i used to play this song whenever i was anxious, and whenever michael’s part came on it was like there was nothing else in this world other than me and the music. good shit

  4. J.... ....

    this music will be there for me. Forever!

  5. m.... ....

    Nothing like finding a sweet new band only to find out their breaking up 😩

  6. T.... S....

  10. v.... s....

    It's been 3 days since I went to their concert, hearing these guys play right in front of me made me feel so alive, I didn't feel like this in years. I wanted to cry but at same time I didn't because I didn't want to miss a thing. I'm so thankful for all of your work boys, and I always will be.
    It hurts me to say this, but it's time for us to bury our love.
    Once again, thank you.

    How can someone dislike this?

  39. H.... D....

    The opening is heartfelt and so powerful, I love it.
    Since I've found Casey a few weeks ago, I'm surprised they don't have a bigger following / views etc.
    They're incredible!

  40. S.... V....

    I feel so many things while listening to Casey.. Some times its because of heartache, today is because i had a mild coffein overdose earlier and i literally forgot my credit card 4 digit number because of it. And it scared me like hell so its been quite a emotionel evening

  41. A.... ....

    ♥🌹

  42. K.... P....

  43. S.... S....

    When I heard those cleans I was damn sure that was my man Michael McGough from Being As An Ocean! Amazing song though, glad I found these guys

    S.... S....

    Sam Svoboda It certainly is 👍

    They are playing their final show ever in Chicago in May 2019!!!!!

  49. M.... ....

    In love with this song but i'm trying to get my head around the meaning of "I’ve tried to forget, but your love will make a museum of me yet"

    M.... ....

    MrPxcJake1 the remnants of a former love left hung within the memory, unable to dissipate, like exhibitions in a museum.

    M.... ....

    Cheers for the reply man, this song means a lot to me! I was kinda on the right track with the meaning as well haha

    M.... ....

    MrPxcJake1 From Tom himself: "The idea that a person will remain as a gallery for memories and tokens of experience."

  50. k.... �....
