about

Joan of Arc was one of my quarantine fixations...I wrote Joan to Catherine from the point of view of Joan of Arc about Saint Catherine of Alexandria, when Catherine is no longer appearing to Joan in her visions. In the song Joan is losing faith, suddenly feeling insignificant without Catherine. Faith and religion stand in for love and purpose in this song.

lyrics

You had a dove
That came down from heaven
While darling I’m starving here
For your attention

It feels like there’s pieces
Of me you took with you
So I call it self love
To admit that I miss you

I keep on
Expecting things to change
But it’s over
And over
And over again

Though I promised
I wouldn’t start to pray
I am down on my knees
And I’m saying your name

Catherine, give me something
Just a sign I’m not insane

I am just a tiny speck
I don’t expect
It to make sense
It hurt to feel you disconnect
I thought for sure you’d call
I don’t know you at all

I am just a tiny speck
I don’t expect it to make sense

Catherine, you can crush me
Just please don’t be a stranger
Catherine if He loved me
Why would He take an angel?

I keep on
Expecting things to change
But it’s over
And over
And over
And over

I am just a tiny speck
I don’t expect it to make sense
I thought for sure you’d call
I don’t know you at all
