Smokestack Faerie - Finding Small Glades

And the shadows are fading
When the morning glow rises
Up from fog and darkness left behind
Cold seeps out of frost-wrapped leaves

Valleys and forests grow here
Full of freedom, the sun's touch
The stones and bones can't find me here
Hidden from the masked misguided sneers

Can you see the smoking dusk
Where the clouds are born from flames
Voices trapped in sooty coughs
They don't look, they just burn, but not here

And the waterfall rages
Drowning out distant car horns
I'm finding pebbles and moss and feathers here
Finding peace and myself in the air

And the shadows are fading
When the morning fog settles
On my hands, there's only warmth in it
Like a stone, like a storm

All I know there are acid pools
Made of words and deeds and them
Breaking faces in the rain
They don't look, they just burn, but not here

This glade grows over broken hearts
This glade covers burning scars
The soil sprouts dew and life and solitude
Their faces elude me, eyes no longer haunt me
This glade grows on forgotten promises
This glade covers open lies
The sunrise breaks the nightly masks open
I'm free from hopes, free from lives, free from them

This glade grows over broken hearts
This glade grows
This glade rises past the smoking horizon
This glade grows

We're finding small glades
We're finding small glades
We're finding small glades
Let them grow
