Maniac

She's a steel town girl on a Saturday night
Looking for a way to burn out all her life
In the real time world no one sees her at all
They all say she's crazy
Rocking rhythm to the beat of her heart
Changing woman in July
She has traveled to the danger zone
Where the danger becomes a dance

It can cut you like a knife
If the gift becomes the fire
On the wire between what will
And what will be

She's a maniac, maniac on the floor
And she's dancing like she's never danced before
She's a maniac, maniac on the floor
And she's dancing like she's never danced before

On the ice we hide insanity
It's a place most never see
It's a hard warm place of mystery
Touch it but can't hold it
You work all your life for that moment in time
It could come or pass you by
It's a push-shove world
But there's always a chance
That hunger stays the night

It's a cold connected heat
Striving, stretching for defeat
Never stopping with her head against the wind

She's a maniac, maniac at your door
And she's dancing like she's never danced before
She's a maniac, maniac at your door
And she's dancing like she's never danced before

It can cut you like a knife
If the gift becomes the fire
On the wire between what will
And what will be

She's a maniac, maniac at your door
And she's dancing like she's never danced before
She's a maniac, maniac at your door
And she's dancing like she's never danced before
Maniac, maniac at your door
And she's dancing like she's never danced before
She's a maniac, maniac at your door
And she's dancing like she's never danced before
