The Maze Of Individual Exits


Pledge allegiance to my uncertainty.
Claim the unprestigious key to my mind.
Become fatigued, your dark thoughts are plenty.
In this maze with exits you have yet to find.
And though I beg you, you can't help me out,
For if you tried you'd entangle me more.
Persuade, confuse, create my own doubt.
I'm more overwhelmed than ever before.
Understand what you can, know that I'm lost,
Remember I have to escape alone.
It seems wrong, but I know it's worth the cost.
There are things we must face on our own.
The outcome of this is a mystery,
And if I stay it will remain to be.
