At the end of a break up, it's easy to internalize accusations and blame, but Sadie Nix's empowering song "Maze" flips the script with an empowering, self-assured message. With poetic lyricism, the speaker of this song deconstructs the situation, lies and all. Words like "disillusions shattered, a bittersweet love left tattered" tangle with powerful concepts of perspective and destruction, and strengthen the truth of this song: that it is better to be on your own than tethered to someone who will only cause you pain. Inspiring listeners to value themselves and understand when they are being manipulated, this wise track holds an important message of clarity and self-worth.
Glowing electronic instrumentals work with sounds of guitar, percussion, and distorted vocal echoes to create a cinematic musical atmosphere. Sadie's deep vocals bring a resonant and grounded feeling, working narratively through the verse and gaining texture in the pre-chorus and chorus with layers and an exploration of her range. A touch of country twang peeks through the singing in the chorus as well. With electric guitar offering a warm and bright sound that compliments the wisdom and bright revelation of the chorus, this track truly uses its sound to communicate the value of self-love.
