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
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
