Long ago, you and I entered this maze Full of smiles and sparkling eyes The maze was full of tall bushes and grey fog that stretched for miles As we tried to find a way out We got separated By the tall bushes and grey fog I recall you telling me that you’d be there for me when I call you Yet when I scream your name, you never answered Instead, I heard static in all of the tall bushes and grey fog “Hey!” I cried out, as I chased what looked like you As I reached out, I realized that I’ve reached a dead end I’ve reached all of the dead ends in this maze of tall bushes and grey fog This distance has made me doubt us as a whole Your silence is making me crouch down in despair And give me panic attacks within these tall bushes and grey fog So this letter is my goodbye to you Maybe if I loved you less, I could keep you close Don’t worry, I’ll always and forever love you As I flee with tears, away from these tall bushes and grey fog that stretched for miles

The Maze
Long ago, you and I entered this maze Full of smiles and sparkling eyes The maze was full of tall bushes and grey fog that stretched for miles As we tried to find a way out We got separated By the tall bushes and grey fog I recall you telling me that you’d be there for me when I call you Yet when I scream your name, you never answered Instead, I heard static in all of the tall bushes and grey fog “Hey!” I cried out, as I chased what looked like you As I reached out, I realized that I’ve reached a dead end I’ve reached all of the dead ends in this maze of tall bushes and grey fog This distance has made me doubt us as a whole Your silence is making me crouch down in despair And give me panic attacks within these tall bushes and grey fog So this letter is my goodbye to you Maybe if I loved you less, I could keep you close Don’t worry, I’ll always and forever love you As I flee with tears, away from these tall bushes and grey fog that stretched for miles
