The sun breaks through a dark gray cloud,
I’m standing in the rays.
And while it’s there I realize,
I haven’t seen the sun in days...
I wonder just how long it’s been,
since I’ve been in this maze.
The happy times have passed me by,
I’m stuck within this haze.

Each time I try to find the lie,
it all comes back to me.
Through every single happy time,
and every memory...
And even though I try so hard,
I really can’t believe,
who are you, what have you done?
It’s not like you to leave!

So here I am I’m back again,
Still walking through this maze.
With every single step I take
I’m still caught in the haze...
...and I fear it’s getting darker,
the sun is blinking out!
Someone has to find me here,
I know they’ll get me out.

I know that it’s too much to wish,
to just go back in time.
If I had known I’d lose myself,
I’d never call you mine.
It seemed so good, you stayed around,
but now I think you’ll find...
we were two kids just having fun,
and we know kids are blind.

So here I say I’ll know one day,
what it means to love.
I held you on a pedestal,
you were so high above.
But who could ever really know,
what it means to love?
I guess when I escape this maze,
I’ll know what they speak of.
