Owen Pallett – Lewis Takes Off His Shirt Lyrics 15 years ago
The line "I've been praised for all the ways the marble leaves the man, and I was wrong to try and free him." brings Michelangelo to mind. He once said that he didn't sculpt, but that he simply removed the parts of the stone which were not of the shape already embedded in the rock. I wonder if he chose this reference for a particular purpose. In my mind, Lewis is a character he created in a story or through a roleplaying session of some kind, who is a part of himself and yet unreachable.
