lyrics

His eyes glow in the dark, in the dark.
This maze will eat you up, don’t go in, it’s so dark.
He will find you there, you don’t have a chance in there,
Use the ribbon from my hair, and you will not get lost in there.

Remember when we were young, we were warned to keep away,
The ground around the maze was mute and bleak, a dirty grave,
And all at night we’d hear our fears coming alive in there,
Pull the sheets around so scared,
You’d weave your fingers through my hair.

Oh and we grew up fast, braver now, long to be strong,
But we are delicate and bendable, no armour on,
And that maze inside will pull you in and terrify,
Use the ribbon from my hair and you will not get lost in there.

You can try, to face your fears and you must,
You can try, to lose the monster in the brush,
You will find, your way back, I will be the one who stands,
Here with the end of the ribbon in my hands.

His eyes glow in the dark, in the dark,
The thing that frightened you when you were young and in the dark,
But you will find I swear, the fears you always thought were there,
You only had yourself to scare,
You only had yourself to scare.
