In My Wilderness

 "In My Wilderness"  by Janis Ian

Rain falls on the shadow lands
Washing all my plans away
Time flies, stretched across the sands
Slow mirages dance and play
Hidden in a corner of my mind
There's a place where nothing's left behind

In my wilderness
In my wilderness
In my wilderness

Four walls cannot hold the dreams
Struggling in between these lines
Words fall, bursting at the seams
Splitting on the rocks and rhymes
Every day's another chance to fail
Honesty's the only thing for sale

In my wilderness
In my wilderness
In my wilderness

Time flies, shadows on the wall
Try and catch a falling star
How high can you rise at all
If you're scared to fall too far
I become a thief of time
Just to watch it all unwind

In my wilderness
In my wilderness
In my wilderness
