I agree with that he references Oroheus and Eurydice, but i also think he references another Greek myth about the man who builds the most beautiful women out of stone, and then falls in love with her, the gods make her real for him, but then I think she breaks and he doesn't want any other women. "...still that statue that I molded in my mind to kiss, so beautiful you'll never move again." I'm confident that there are more myth references, that I don't understand, in this song. |

| I too remembered most of these myths when listening to the song. Did Galatea break though, in Pygmalion and Galatea, once the gods made her real? | |
