Marrow Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Muscle connects to the bone
And bone to the ire and the marrow
I wish I had a gentle mind and a spine made up of iron
[Verse 2]
Mouth connects to the teeth
And teeth to the loves and the curses
Honey, can you reach the spots that need oiling and fixing?
[Chorus]
H-E-L-P
Help me, help me
H-E-L-P
Help me, help me
[Verse 3]
Muscle connects to the bone
And bone to the ire and the marrow
So I pretend there aren't ten strings tied to all ten of my fingers
[Chorus]
H-E-L-P
Help me, help me
[Bridge]
If you want, we could go somewhere else
Muscle connects to the bone
And bone to the ire and the marrow
I wish I had a gentle mind and a spine made up of iron
[Verse 2]
Mouth connects to the teeth
And teeth to the loves and the curses
Honey, can you reach the spots that need oiling and fixing?
[Chorus]
H-E-L-P
Help me, help me
H-E-L-P
Help me, help me
[Verse 3]
Muscle connects to the bone
And bone to the ire and the marrow
So I pretend there aren't ten strings tied to all ten of my fingers
[Chorus]
H-E-L-P
Help me, help me
[Bridge]
If you want, we could go somewhere else
[Outro]
H-E-L-P
H-E-L-P
H-E-L-P
H-E-L-P
H-E-L-P
H-E-L-P
H-E-L-P
H-E-L-P

A song that’s both growling and pleading at the same time, “Marrow” hints at the sonic grooves St. Vincent would later explore in her selftitled release.
