In My Land
I close my eyes and off I stray,
Gone to find my hideaway.
Dont know if i'll wish to return,
This emptiness is not at all what I had yearned,
It burns.
And so I dream until a place I find,
With all these things inside my mind.
I'll dream and dream and dream some more,
Until this boat on which I float drifts from it's shore,
In a storm.
There's no Darkness, there's no Time,
When I close my eyes and fly.
There's just no place like any place but here,
I just close my eyes and the whole world disappears,
It's unclear.
I'm told that place could not be real,
Told each way that I should feel.
But what do any of them know?
They're all blind, so to my hideaway I go.
And so,
I close my eyes and slip away,
And find myself in better days.
I pick through fading memories,
And I see all that this world has given me,
And it's sweet.
But still I feel inside my heart,
That I belong beside the stars.
And if you listen close you'll find,
That silently I scream so loudly in my mind,
Confined.
So I close my eyes and run,
Away someplace far from the Sun.
And in my far off Dreamers Land,
I find a man I finally can understand.
I'm not mad
Cause I'm A man that I can Love and Understand
In my land.
Gone to find my hideaway.
Dont know if i'll wish to return,
This emptiness is not at all what I had yearned,
It burns.
And so I dream until a place I find,
With all these things inside my mind.
I'll dream and dream and dream some more,
Until this boat on which I float drifts from it's shore,
In a storm.
There's no Darkness, there's no Time,
When I close my eyes and fly.
There's just no place like any place but here,
I just close my eyes and the whole world disappears,
It's unclear.
I'm told that place could not be real,
Told each way that I should feel.
But what do any of them know?
They're all blind, so to my hideaway I go.
And so,

And find myself in better days.

And I see all that this world has given me,
And it's sweet.
But still I feel inside my heart,
That I belong beside the stars.
And if you listen close you'll find,
