The Static Coterie

[Intro]
[Hook]
Marble skin begins to glow
Softly in the evening show
C'est si bon, the secret flow
Komorebi in the row
[Verse]
Flashlight sweeps the velvet hall
Shadows stretch against the wall
Shift the weight from left to right
In the middle of the night
Preparation of the keys
Muffled sounds of dryer breeze
Spinning cycles in the air
Dusty light is everywhere
[Pre-Chorus]
Plasticity is just a lie
Underneath the painted sky
Petit à petit, they wake
Every rule they start to break
[Chorus]
Apollo wants a peppermint
Venus takes a golden hint
Stealing candy from the jar
Wishing on a distant star
They gossip in a quiet tone
Harder than a mountain stone
Messy lives in galleries
Finding joy in little things
[Post-Chorus]
Fidgeting with silver rings
(Watashi wa, the stone sings)
Fidgeting with silver rings
(C'est la vie, the stone sings)
[Verse]
Diana drops her heavy bow
Just to see the brasses blow
Marching rhythms in the dark
Lighting up a tiny spark
She finds a lost and lonely stud
Buried in the gallery mud
Checking if the clasp is tight
In the artificial light
[Drop]
Tempo racing, pulses fly
Marble hearts begin to sigh
Fast and frantic, stone and bone
Never let the truth be known
Fast and frantic, stone and bone
Never let the truth be known
[Bridge]
Immortality is quite a bore
When your feet can't touch the floor
They would trade the grand design
For a sip of cheap red wine
Intellectual and cold
Until the stories all unfold
Fleeting moments, messy grace
Hiding on a carved out face
[Chorus]
Apollo wants a peppermint
Venus takes a golden hint
Stealing candy from the jar
Wishing on a distant star
They gossip in a quiet tone
Harder than a mountain stone
Messy lives in galleries
Finding joy in little things
[Verse]
The sun begins to climb the stairs
Catching them in unawares
Back to poses, stiff and grand
Sugar sticky in their hand
I click my heels and walk away
Ready for another day
Knowing what the statues do
When the world is far from view
[Post-Chorus]
Fidgeting with silver rings
(Watashi wa, the stone sings)
Fidgeting with silver rings
(C'est la vie, the stone sings)
[Outro]
