One day I built a maze
I raised the walls so high I could not find a way
And each brick I laid in place
Had a name inscribed upon it's face
My mind was so confused
And my hands were cold and bruised
And each brick revealed the lies and the sins
That I had fused
And as each brick I laid
I raised the thought that this is what life has for me
The maze – when you feel it rot and pick it up
When you're feeling like you've got the power – oh no
You keep building up a throne of broken – oh yeah
You keep building it, but it has got you made
When you feel it rot and pick it up
When you're feeling like you've got the power – oh no
You keep building up a throne of broken – oh yeah
You keep building it, but it has got you made
For some days I wandered in a haze
In this city of my sin until I wondered what I got
Then I see, it's not me
All these walls I'd built had somehow destroyed me
And the sun got hot
And the Son got hot, yeah
For the first time I lifted up my eyes
And as my hands, they had followed suit
Then to my surprise the sun had
Made this maze burn away
And in these endless days
I'll sing for my Creator
The maze – when you feel it rot and pick it up
When you're feeling like you've got the power – oh no
You keep building up a throne of broken – oh yeah
You keep building it, but it has got you made
When you feel it rot and pick it up
When you're feeling like you've got the power – oh no
You keep building up a throne of broken – oh yeah
You keep building it, but it has got you made
When you feel it rot and pick it up
When you're feeling like you've got the power – oh no
You keep building up a throne of broken – oh yeah
You keep building it, but it has got you made
When you feel it rot and pick it up
When you're feeling like you've got the power – oh no
You keep building up a throne of broken – oh yeah
You keep building it, but it has got you made
You've got to give it up
You've got to give it up
You've got to give it up
You've got to give it up
The maze – when you feel it rot and pick it up
When you're feeling like you've got the power – oh no
You keep building up a throne of broken – oh yeah
You keep building it, but it has got you made
When you feel it rot and pick it up
When you're feeling like you've got the power – oh no
You keep building up a throne of broken – oh yeah
You keep building it, but it has got you made
