The Labyrinth

A circular room
You're trapped
Find a corner
Sit and ask
Where's the door
Out of the maze
Labyrinth will eat alive

Why did you enter?
Find the answer
Before it's too late
Walls are closing in
Where's that corner?
So you can finally ask
Minator tears away at the flesh

There never was a door
You silly little fool
Forget the corner
Run and run
Circles pass the time
Time that flies when you are blind
