Ben Rosenfield - Marble Song

[Verse 1]
I have walked so much farther I thought
I should drink out of this afternoon talk
So I'd fall asleep before I go dark
Drinking champagne from a gold paper cup
And there’s this refrain that never gives up
It's in your blazing blue eyes, it's enough

[Chorus]
That pin point rage I felt growing up
I can’t shake it away

[Verse 2]
I lie awake with my face to the door
I never ask you why or what for
I'm so afraid that I'll never get pure

[Chorus]
Luck is like a marble on the stage
It waits for our big grace to fall

[Verse 3]
I breathe my name against the cool glass
I dissolve the day, despise my past
Ecstatic; nothing has silenced that gas
I took an oath before I turned ten
Hand over heart, I became a man
Swore not to be the coward I am

[Chorus]
That pin point rage I felt growing up
Returned with a vengeance today
Love is like a marble on the stairs
It waits for us there, to fall

[Verse 4]
Where did you acquire your magic affect?
Did it take a long time to improve and effect?
To dissolve and destroy when I least expect
