Corn Maze Cry

[Verse 1] The corn stands tall Like rows of teeth I hear your steps Five rows beneath Your little breath Keeps giving you away I cut the dark You lose the way A scarecrow leans But I do not My shadow slips Where your eyes stop [Pre-Chorus] Turn once Then turn again Hear that rustle? That’s where I am Hold still Don’t make a sound The maze knows yours I wear the ground [Chorus] Run, little light Run, little light I’m right behind Run, little light Corn maze cry Corn maze cry You’ll call my name Then you’ll go quiet [Verse 2] Your hand touched stalks I touched your fear You left a trail I keep it here A broken moon A blackened path You try to pray I laugh at that The crows go stiff On every rail I know your pulse I know the trail You see one bend I see your end The maze turns slow To feed me in [Pre-Chorus] Turn once Then turn again Hear that rustle? That’s where I am Hold still Don’t make a sound The maze knows yours I wear the ground [Chorus] Run, little light Run, little light I’m right behind Run, little light Corn maze cry Corn maze cry You’ll call my name Then you’ll go quiet [Bridge] Now the scarecrow grins In your place I borrow your breath I borrow your pace The moon looks down Through stalk and bone One last wrong step And you’re mine alone [Final Chorus] Run, little light Run, little light I’m right behind Run, little light Corn maze cry Corn maze cry You called too late Now you go quiet Run, little light Run, little light The maze is mine Run, little light
