Maps
Max & Alyson Stoner Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I don't like what I'm running from
I don't really think I'm having fun anymore
But there's nothing the world can do when love walks out on you
I don't really feel like seeing my friends
I don't really know who is my friend anymore
But there's nothing the world can do when love walks out on you
And I'm not gonna draw you a map
You just got to find your own way
And I'm not gonna draw you a map
You just got to find your own way
I don't really know what I should do
I got nothing here that I can show to you
I just found out that all that I know is nothing of use
I didn't know my life could be so boring
I didn't know my life could be as boring as this
But there's nothing the world can do when love walks out on you
And I'm not gonna draw you a map
You just have to find your own way




I'm not gonna draw you a map
You just have to find your own way

Overall Meaning

The lyrics in Max & Alyson Stoner's song "Maps" explore the feelings of disillusionment and loneliness that can come with the end of a relationship. The first verse expresses a sense of dissatisfaction and lack of enjoyment. The singer no longer finds joy in the things they used to love, and they feel uncertain about who their true friends are. They acknowledge that when love walks out on someone, there is nothing the world can do to fix it.


In the chorus, the singer declares that they won't provide guidance or a solution for someone else's journey. They believe that each person must find their own path and make their own choices. This may also reflect a desire for independence and a refusal to be responsible for someone else's happiness.


The second verse further amplifies the feeling of emptiness and confusion. The singer acknowledges their lack of direction and the absence of anything significant to offer. They realize that what they once believed was important now seems insignificant. The repetition of the line "But there's nothing the world can do when love walks out on you" reinforces the sense of helplessness in the face of heartbreak.

I miss the taste of a sweeter life
I miss the conversation
I'm searching for a song tonight
I'm changing all of the stations
I like to think that we had it all
We drew a map to a better place
But on that road I took a fall
Oh baby why did you run away?

I was there for you
In your darkest times
I was there for you
In your darkest night

But I wonder, where were you?
When I was at my worst
Down on my knees
And you said you had my back
So I wonder, where were you?
All the roads you took came back to me
So I'm following the map that leads to you you-you-you-you-you
Ain't nothing I can do
The map that leads to you
Following, following, following to you you-you-you-you-you
Ain't nothing I can do
The map that leads to you
Following, following, following

Tu bien sabes que yo te ando buscando
Aunque en el tiempo pasó aun yo te sigo amando
Tengo un mapa de papel
Y camino sobre él
Donde estés llegaré
No tienes chance para escaparte

Te sigo buscando por cielo y tierra
Razón de ti nadie me da
Pa' toda mi piel ya no hay mapa
Que me conducirá

Esto parece ficción
Hasta en la televisión
Como entender la canción que estoy haciendo
Para encontrarte

Y yo fui quien te acompañó en la oscuridad
Quien nunca falló. Ehh

But I wonder, where were you?
When I was at my worst
Down on my knees
And you said you had my back
So I wonder, where were you?
All the roads you took came back to me
So I'm following the map that leads to you you-you-you-you-you
Ain't nothing I can do
The map that leads to you
Following, following, following to you you-you-you-you-you
Ain't nothing I can do
The map that leads to you
Following, following, following

Oh I was there for you
Oh In your darkest times
Oh I was there for you
Oh In your darkest night

Oh I was there for you
Oh In your darkest times
Oh I was there for you
Oh In your darkest night

But I wonder, where were you?
When I was at my worst
Down on my knees
And you said you had my back
So I wonder, where were you?
All the roads you took came back to me
So I'm following the map that leads to you you-you-you-you-you
Ain't nothing I can do
The map that leads to you
Following, following, following to you you-you-you-you-you
Ain't nothing I can do
The map that leads to you

I hear your voice in my sleep at night
Hard to resist temptation
'Cause something strange has come over me
Now, I can't get over you
No, I just can't get over you

That's it. I'm choreographing to an Max and Alyson cover.

@austindeal3386

It's crazy that I'm subscribed to Kurt, Max, and you and here you are supporting each other. It would be beyond AMAZING if you could get Alyson in your next video. She's one of the best dancers I've ever seen.
P.S I just watched your new video "Sexxx Dreams" and it's amazing as always! Best choreographer ever!

@peachy6295
