Michael SembelloManiac

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 movement 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
on the wire between will and what will be. chorus: (x2)
she's a maniac, maniac on the floor
and she's dancing like she's never danced before. on the ice blue line of insanity
is a place most never see.
It's a hard won 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 of world but there's always a chance
if the hunger stays the night. there's a cold kinetic heat,
struggling, stretching for the peak,
never stopping with her head against the wind. chorus: (x2)
she's a maniac, maniad, I sure know,
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 will and what will be. chorus: (x3)
she's a maniac, maniac, I sure know,
and she's dancing like she's never danced before.
