Inferno Parade


A forest flame 
That dances freely into the the night sky 
The cloud of celebration 
Drowns out the inferno parade
 
Circling onlookers deaf to the commotion 
 
Again I feel the brace 
The magic of the spark 
Light up and die 
With so many other parades
 
A dancing dragon takes me 
and leads me away from the night sky
 
Come forth and live between a dance 
Sparkling distraction
Whisked away from the main attraction
 
Fan performers turn to welcome a stranger
 
The children chant hooray hooray
What happened to that girl
The fire grows brighter in the heavens
 
Beauty grows greater 
As it's taken from me
 
Gaping halls of colored lace
Invited all to come and stay 
 
One who dared had taken all
Forest flames that dance away
 
Welcome to the cloud of beauty
That made me forget what I once thought
 
Together all will dance in the commotion
Inferno parade
 
The music will light up and die
With the feeling of this parade
 
Forever feel the eternal embrace
Dancing forest flame
