Maniac

Just a Steel-Town girl

On a saturday night

Looking for the fight of her life

In the real time world

No one sees her at all

They all say she's crazy

Locking rhythms to the beat of her heart

Changing moment into light

She has danced into the danger zone

When the dancer becomes the dance

It can cut you like a knife

If the gift becomes the fire

All the while you're stuck between

What's will and what will be

She's a maniac

Maniac on the floor

And she's dancing like

She never danced before

She's a maniac

Maniac on the floor

And she's dancing like

She never danced before

On the ice-filled line of sanity

It's a place most never see

It's a hard-won place of mystery

You can touch it but can't hold it

You work all your life

For that moment in time

It can come or pass you by

It's a push of the world

But there's always a chance

If the hunger stays alive

There's a cold kinetic heat

Struggling, stretching for the beat

Never stopping

With her hair against the wind

It can cut you like a knife

If the gift becomes the fire

All the while you're stuck between

What's will and what will be

She's a maniac

Maniac at your door

And she's dancing like

She never danced before

She's a maniac

Maniac at your door

And she's dancing like

She never danced before
