Maddy stopped for a minute and wiped her tears. She found a log, sat on it, and sang:
I guess I should've known better
To believe that my luck had changed, oh
I let my heart and forever
Finally learn each other's names
I tell myself this time is different
No goodbyes 'cause I can't bear to say it
I'll never survive the one that's coming
If I stay, ooh no!
Just walk away! Oh, and don't look back
Cause if my heart breaks, it's gonna hurt so bad
You know I'm strong, but I can't take that
Before It's too late, oh, just walk away!
Ooh, just walk away!
(Walk, walk, walk away)
Aye aye, aye yeah
I really wish I could blame you
But I know that it's no one's fault
No, no, no, no, ooh
A Cinderella with no shoe
And a Prince that doesn't know he's lost
This emptiness feels so familiar
Each goodbye is just the same old song
But this time I will not surrender!
'Cause I'm gone, ooh, no!
Just walk away! Ooh, and don't look back
Cause if my heart breaks, It's gonna hurt so bad
You know I'm strong, but I can't take that
Before It's too late, oh, just walk away!
Oh, just walk away!
(Walk, walk, walk away)
Oh, just walk away!
I've got to let it go, ooh
Start protecting my heart and soul
Cause I don't think I'll survive a goodbye again
Not again!
Just walk away! Oh, and don't look back
Cause if my heart breaks, it's gonna hurt so bad
You know I'm strong, but I can't take that
Before it's too late, before It's too late!
Oh, just walk away!
Walk away, walk away, yeah!
(Walk, walk, walk away!)
Walk away, walk away, oh no
(Walk away, walk, walk away)
Walk away, walk away
(Walk, walk, walk away!)
Walk away, walk away, oh, ooh
She also sang another song while thinking about Zeke:

La-da-da-da-da, la-da-da-da-da
Da-da-da
We are searchlights, we can see in the dark
We are rockets, pointed up at the stars
We are billions of beautiful hearts
And you sold us down the river too far
What about us?
What about all the times you said you had the answers?
What about us?
What about all the broken happy ever afters?
What about us?
What about all the plans that ended in disaster?
What about love? What about trust?
What about us?
We are problems that want to be solved
We are children that need to be loved
We were willing, we came when you called
But man, you fooled us, enough is enough, oh
What about us?
What about all the times you said you had the answers?
What about us?
What about all the broken happy ever afters?
Oh, what about us?
What about all the plans that ended in disaster?
Oh, what about love? What about trust?
What about us?
Oh, what about us?
What about all the plans that ended in disaster?
What about love? What about trust?
What about us?
Sticks and stones, they may break these bones
But then I'll be ready, are you ready?
It's the start of us, waking up, come on
Are you ready? I'll be ready
I don't want control, I want to let go
Are you ready? I'll be ready
'Cause now it's time to let them know we are ready
What about us?
What about us?
What about all the times you said you had the answers?
So what about us?
What about all the broken happy ever afters?
Oh, what about us?
What about all the plans that ended in disaster?
Oh, what about love? What about trust?
What about us?
What about us?
What about us?
What about us?
What about us?
What about us?
What about us?
She wandered more in the forest to be alone.
