Write art pop lyrics for a chameleonic female vocalist with 3-octave dramatic range, following an experimental non-linear structure with sudden tempo shifts between 75 and 170 BPM, in G Phrygian dominant mode, layered over warped modular synth textures, prepared piano stabs, field recordings of 1920s carnival calliopes, and occasional dissonant string swells. The lyrics follow a surreal narrative of a curator restoring lost sentient sculptures in a derelict interplanetary art gallery, shifting between deadpan spoken word, operatic belting, and breathy falsetto. Emotion veers between playful whimsy, quiet existential longing, and unhinged theatrical grandeur, laced with surreal, intellectually playful imagery of living marble installations and constellation-themed canvases that bleed ink when touched.

[Intro] [Verse] The dust is thick on Orion’s belt The coldest heat I’ve ever felt I touch the canvas, watch it bleed A hungry god with a hollow need I polish the torso of a king Waiting for the stone to sing His marble pulse is slow and deep While the rest of the planets sleep [Pre-Chorus] The calliope starts to grind and moan A circus made of ancient bone I pull the lever, hear the snap Falling deep into the curator’s trap Sudden sparks in the wiring loom Lighting up the velvet room [Chorus] Oh, see the marble come alive! Only the broken will survive In the gallery of the setting sun The restoration has just begun I paint the stars with a silver knife To give the stone a second life [Post-Chorus] Spinning in the velvet room Brushing away the cosmic doom Singing to the silent stars Behind these gilded iron bars [Breakdown] Subject four is a weeping stone Sitting on a velvet throne I scrub the moss from copper eyes Underneath the holographic skies Do you remember the golden heat? Before the vacuum felt complete? [Build-up] Modular synths begin to scream Like a fever in a metal dream The tempo breaks, the rhythm flies Look into my glass-bead eyes Faster now, the gears are turning All the ancient oil is burning [Drop] Dance, you calcified ghosts! To the laughter of the hosts! Break the frame and tear the silk! Drinking from the starry milk! [Chorus] Oh, see the marble come alive! Only the broken will survive In the gallery of the setting sun The restoration has just begun I paint the stars with a silver knife To give the stone a second life [Bridge] Piano stabs in the dark Waiting for a single spark The constellations drip like rain Washing away the cosmic stain I am the master of the silent hall Waiting for the statues to fall One by one they start to breathe Watch the living marble heave [Interlude] [Verse] The ink is black, the ink is gold Stories that were never told I stitch the canvas back together In this wild and airless weather My hands are stained with nebula blue I am becoming a statue too [Chorus] Oh, see the marble come alive! Only the broken will survive In the gallery of the setting sun The restoration has just begun I paint the stars with a silver knife To give the stone a second life [Post-Chorus] Spinning in the velvet room Brushing away the cosmic doom Singing to the silent stars Behind these gilded iron bars [Outro]
