Lyrics

Snowy Egret hunts the shallow, brackish water, it`s early and silence reigns over the canal. A few solemn rays of sun, split the concrete columns of the freeway. Snowy Egret wades thin like a pen,legs dipped in an inkwell.oh well...tomorrow will be the same , ebb and flow through the channel, and snowy egret will hunt the shallow brackish waters
