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 woman into life
She has danced into the danger zone
When a dancer becomes a dance
It can cut you like a knife,
If the gift becomes the fire
On a wire between will
And what will be
She's a maniac,
Maniac on the floor
And she's dancing like
She's never danced before
On the ice-build iron sanity
Is 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 of the world, but there's always a chance
If the hunger stays the night
There's a cold connective heat,
Struggling, stretching for defeat
Never stopping with her
Head against the wind.
She's a maniac,
Maniac, 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 a wire between will
And what will be.
She's a maniac,
Maniac, I sure know
And she's dancing like
She's never danced before
