Seagull

Saw a seagull screech out at sea

Wondering if it told me

How he felt and where it goes

Who he was and what he knows

What he saw that never shows from the shore at sea

There’s light above on the spotter

Faces the glow and grim in his eyes

Towering water

Far from the shore

In stormy long nights

And light’s reflecting the surface

Float in the calm

And think yourself safe

Making me nervous

Dangerous silence keeping you safe

As it flies the blue will turn to grey

Stumbles back and forth with wave After wave

Silence stays after the storm

Shiver ‘til it starts to calm

Through the ruins that you saw

Further from shore

There’s a light above on the spotter

Faces the glow and grim in his eyes

Towering water

Far from the shore

In stormy long nights

And light’s reflecting the surface

Float in the calm

And think yourself safe

Making me nervous

Dangerous silence keeping you safe

There’s a light above on the spotter

Faces the glow and grim in his eyes

Towering water

Far from the shore

In stormy long nights

And light’s reflecting the surface

Float in the calm

And think yourself safe

Making me nervous

Dangerous silence keeping you safe Making me nervous

Dangerous silence keeping you safe Making me nervous

Dangerous silence keeping you safe
