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
