Seagull Samaritan (EP version)

from Seagull Samaritan EP by Gazz Marlow

/

about

The lyrics on this track recall a night where I saw a seagull hit by a taxi, and I picked it up out of the road and looked after it while it died. The song imagines the seagull's perspective being tended to by a stranger.

LYRICS

Something's happening to me
Sudden impact and broken wings
Looks like I could have picked a better place to fly
Seems like everything's my fault

And I tumble down
Down to the tarmac, no friend of mine
Unfold myself
Wish for tomorrow, those speeding lights
This is not what I expected to lose, to lose
Move me to safety
Can somebody save me
Please

As I'm laying on the floor
With broken heart and blood to lose
Feels like I couldn't have picked
A better day to die
You can't see stars when you're face down

And I tumble down
Down to the tarmac, no friend of mine
Unfold myself
Wish for tomorrow, those speeding lights
This is not what I expected to lose, to lose
Move me to safety
Can somebody save me
Please

And I want you to know
I'm fading into the night
All I want is you here
To hold me now

And I want you to know
I'm fading into the night
All I want is you here
To hold me now

To hold me now
To hold me now

And I tumble down
Down to the tarmac, no friend of mine
Unfold myself
Wish for tomorrow, those speeding lights
This is not what I expected to lose, to lose
Move me to safety
Can somebody save me
Please
