Heron’s Tangled Flight

(hummmmm) Standing still where the water meets the clay

Watching the shadows of the minnows drift away

Silver wings folded, sharp eyes on the prize Waiting for the ripples

under heavy grey skies (skrrt) I'm the patient hunter,

silent in the reeds One sudden strike is all my hunger really

needs

Caught in a tangled web,

trying to fly

Caught between the riverbank and the open sky (yeah)

Tangled web, everywhere I go

Stuck in the weeds where the cold currents flow

Nylon threads and discarded plastic lines Wrapped around my talons in the

worst designs

Try to spread my wings but the drag is too real

This is the price of the modern-day deal (ahhhh) Struggling to lift

off, heavy in the chest Just another bird trying to survive the

test

Caught in a tangled web,

trying to fly

Caught between the riverbank and the open sky (yeah)

Tangled web, everywhere I go

Stuck in the weeds where the cold currents flow

High above the canopy,

I want to soar

But the weight of the shore keeps me wanting more (hummmmm)

Caught in a tangled web,

trying to fly

Caught between the riverbank and the open sky (yeah)

Tangled web, everywhere I go

Stuck in the weeds where the cold currents flow

Yeah...

tangled web...

Just a heron in the reeds... (hummmmm)
