SMOKE FILLED PICTURES
Music & Lyrics: Heather Alexander

Smoke fills the room,
With castles in the air-
I weave them all upon a silver loom,
Look up if you dare-

I WONDER WHERE I'M GOING?
AND WHERE I BELONG?
WHAT THIS PLASTIC WORLD CAN OFFER ME?
THE ONLY TRUTH I UNDERSTAND
IS THAT WITHIN MY SONG
AND IN THE SMOKE FILLED PICTURES THAT I SEE

Threads without any ends,
Tangle in the chandelier-
Within the smoky corners are my friends,
And no one knows they’re here-

Music floats to the ground,
Dragons fly on the wing-
And in their dance, they whirl the whole room ‘round,
Above the heads of those to whom I sing-
