Maniac

This is Firewind's cover of the popular 80s song "Maniac", written by Michael Sembello, which was featured in the 1983 movie Flashdance.

Just a Steel-Town girl On a saturday night Lookin for the fight of her life In the real time world No one sees her at all They all say she's crazy Lockin rythms 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 kenetic 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
