The Captain And The Hourglass Songtext / Lyric

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 Iâm free.



My friends donât really get me, think Iâm 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.

Heâll tick tick tick tick tick tick tick away.

Another second lost with every fallen grain.

Heâll 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 donât hear so well.

Youâre gonna have to curse him well youâre gonna have to yell.

The sky and I, weâve had our fights and Iâm coming down to rain,

If the rain come round and it donât come out, then Iâll 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 heâs heading out the door,

Leaving his lady alone thinkinâ âHe donât love me no more.â

Heâs done with all this bullshit, Heâs going back to war,

If Heaven is as Heaven does then this is Hell for sure...

And Heâll tick tick tick tick tick tick tick away.

Another second lost with every fallen grain.

Heâll 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 Iâm free...
