The Captain And The Hourglass

Laura Marling
앨범 : Alas I Cannot Swim
You kicked the blow, now youve got to kick the guy.
You sat alone, under bellowing sky.
If I feel God judging me, I fell into the water,
And now Im free.

My friends they dont really get me, think Im 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.

And hell tick tick tick tick away,
Another second lost with every fallen grain.
And hell tick, tick tick tick away,
Another second lost with every fallen grain.

The smoke is filling up the room, creeping up the walls
But its my only pleasure as I dont drink no more.
And I told him he could stray but he was not to fall in love
So I could be the snake and still look like a dove.

Cause I am one for straying and not one for forgiving,
And if he thinks were all right then I can go on living.

You kicked the blow, now youve got to kick the guy.
You sat alone, under bellowing sky.
If I feel God judging me, I fell into the water,
And now Im free.

The wind and I we speak the same but he dont hear so well,
If you gonna have to curse him well youre gonna have to yell.
And the sky and I weve had our fights but Im coming round to rain,
If the rain come out and I dont go out I dont ever have to speak again.

I can tick tick tick tick away,
Another second lost with every fallen grain.
I can tick tick tick tick away,
Another second lost with every fallen grain

The captains got his boots on and hes heading out the door,
Leaving his lady alone thinking, He dont love me no more.
Hes done with all his bullsh*t, hes going back to war,
If heaven is as heaven does then this is hell for sure

And hell tick tick tick tick away,
Another second lost with every fallen grain.
And hell tick, tick tick tick away,
Another second lost with every fallen grain.

You kicked the blow, now youve got to kick the guy.
You sat alone, under bellowing sky.
If I feel God judging me, I fell into the water,
And now Im free.
