Laura Marling - Captain and the Hourglass lyrics

rate me

You kick the blow,

now you gotta kick the guy

You sat alone

under billowing sky

If I feel God judging me,

Well I fell into the water,

now I'm free.

My friends don't really get me,

think I'm the only one

Well i sold my soul to Jesus

and since then ive had no fun

Behind every tree

is a cutting machine

and a kite fallen from grace

Inside every man

is a heart of sand

you can see it in his face.

He'll tick tick tick

tick tick tick tick away.

Another second lost

with every fallen grain.

He'll tick tick tick

tick tick tick tick away.

Another second lost

with every fallen grain.

The wind and I,

we speak the same,

but he don't hear so well.

You're gonna have

to curse him well

you're gonna have to yell.

The sky and I,

we've had our fights

and I'm coming down to rain,

If the rain come round

and it don't come out,

then I'll never have

to speak again,

I can tick tick tick

tick tick tick tick away.

Another second lost

with every fallen grain.

Can tick tick tick

tick tick tick tick away.

Another second lost

with every fallen grain.

The captains got his boots on

and he's heading out the door,

Leaving his lady alone thinkin'He don't love me no more.He's done with all this bullshit,

He's going back to war,

If Heaven is as Heaven does then

this is Hell for sure...

And He'll tick tick tick

tick tick tick tick away.

Another second lost

with every fallen grain.

He'll tick tick tick tick

tick tick tick away.

Another second lost

with every fallen grain.

You kick the blow,

now you gotta kick the guy

You sat alone

under billowing sky

If I feel God judging me,

Well I fell into the water,

now I'm free
