[Verse]
Dark walls closing in tight suffocating
No light no exit no escaping
Every twist every turn a cruel trick
Heart pounding fists clenched it's all sick
[Verse 2]
Screaming at shadows they don’t scream back
Echoes mocking me fading into black
Crumbling ground beneath my feet shaking
World built of lies breaking breaking
[Chorus]
I’m lost in this maze no guide no way
Anger fuels me as night devours day
Terror and rage a storm in my chest
World abandoned me left me no rest
[Verse 3]
Fingers raw from clawing at stone walls
No one hears when the broken one calls
Fire in my veins burns hotter than fear
Spitting at the void I refuse to disappear
[Bridge]
The maze laughs whispers poison in my ear
Tells me I’m nothing feeds on my tears
But I’m still standing fists up to fight
I’ll tear this maze down piece by piece tonight
[Chorus]
I’m lost in this maze no guide no way
Anger fuels me as night devours day
Terror and rage a storm in my chest
World abandoned me left me no rest
