Seagull

A seafaring angel forgot
What she left in the sand
Left buried on land

A king picked you up from the shore
A stone on the ground
Or a jewel for the crown

Carried you under his legs
Two months of care
But never aware

Then in the time before dawn
They saw the lie
When egg split the sky

Across the arctic it hurts
When nobody knows what you're worth
And your life has just begun
But you're not the emperors sun

Rolled you on top of the cliff
Gallows were made
For a prince to be slayed

They cast you into the sea
But you never touched the foam
Now the sky is your home

Across the arctic it hurts
When nobody knows what you're worth
And your life has just begun
But you're not the emperors sun

Across the arctic it hurts
When nobody knows what you're worth
And your life has just begun
But you're not the emperors sun
