lyrics

Oh Marble Son, why can’t I love you more?
I wish I’d found you beautiful before.

When I was young, I’d have most anyone,
but I only loved what was to come undone,
come undone.

Oh, Marble Son….
who stands beside you?

They say we are the trees; we're in the air,
We are the land, the ocean, and the moon;

We are despair…

and the happiness, that lingers, everywhere.

Will we ever be ourselves again?
Worried minds in need of silencing?

I do not wish to be free,
but I know….

it’s what needs to be.

Oh Marble Son, why can’t I love you more?

I wish I’d found you beautiful before.

Oh, before….
