So this ending is surprisingly fitting for this point in time. 
" "I THOUGHT I WOULD LIVE FOREVER," the statue moans. 

"We all do when we're young," you say companionably. You sit down on a rock. Even in a dream, you find your back hurts. 

"IT WAS ALL BEAUTIFUL THEN," the statue says, and the giant robot makes a noise you think is a sniffle. 

"You were perfect for the world of your youth," you say. 

As if she had been waiting for someone to say something like that—something really nice, and no mention of slavery or old, white men or Native Americans or anything like that to ruin the moment—Liberty lets out a great sigh, and the dull, red lights go out from her eyes. 

"So was I," you continue, telling the statue because she had been such a good listener. "But eventually, we all become relics out of time." You pat the statue's giant cheek, and the old, green patina is cold to the touch. "Whatever else you were, you were familiar." 

Then the robot rats swarm the copper statue and feast. "

I hate to ruin the moment, but copper probably wouldn't make a good meal for rats.
