marienbad (live) - julia holter lyrics

[verse 1]
i can hear a statue
wonder why they’re so still
all able heels in a garden
summer’s water runs so quickly beside them
could it be it runs for them?

[refrain 1]
dull to be too staid
to be too bold or stunned
too young and growing
[verse 2]
ten signs that read “silence.”
ten signs that read “silence.”

[refrain 2]
too cold to remember a face
impossible to say
in frozen green, what’s alive?
what’s alive?

[chorus]
over stone so still; a statue’s will to move
like birds so stoically; by the drain
gardens carved of stone
the human whispers, so cold
a fountain ices over
a story over, a mouth says nothing
a few more seconds, forever marble
topiary moment
waiting, i’m waiting by the drain
see the ice never thawing
their legs always still
like hearts so stoically; by the drain
see gardens carved of stone
the human whispers, so cold
a fountain ices
over stone so still; a statue’s will to move
like birds so stoically; by the drain
gardens carved of stone
the human whispers, so cold
a fountain ices over
a story over, a mouth says nothing
a few more seconds, forever marble
topiary moment
waiting, i’m waiting by the drain
see the ice never thawing
their legs always still
like hearts so stoically; by the drain
see gardens carved of stone
the human whispers, so cold
