"manic episode" LYRICS by Nikki Silva
Verse 1
Its not intentional
Its medical
Little Jitterbug
You overly engage with me
I fed myself, I ate it up
Little pleasure spiked with pain
Ticket on your crazy train
Read the writings on the wall
Said don’t care, I want it all
Chorus
Cast me as the co-star
In your manic episode
I’ll play the role, it’s casual
Tell me when to go
If you’re the drug then f*** me up
Requiem for a dream
The mania, The mania, The mania
REQUIEM!
Lights up, camera ready, hit record baby
Verse 2
I’m understanding ya
And I could handle ya
Whats the situation?
You should let me channel ya
Is it random cut or by the hand of God?
I think we have a lot in common like our manic hearts
Feel like an amateur
Because I’m falling for ya
& when it’s over
I know all of it
Will be a Blur
Chorus
Cast me as the co-star
In your manic episode
I’ll play the role, it’s casual
Tell me when to go
If you’re the drug then f*** me up
Requiem for a dream
The mania, The mania, The mania
Verse 3
And for his final act, the boy will disappear
Be that as it may my dear, we need to withdraw
Fear in read between the lines
The grip of my claw
Take Back your Sundays
your mornings, your goodnights, you know
You’re really working on yourself
When your waking up alone
I bet you think you hurt me
Well, maybe you did
But I will always walk through fire
For a moment of bliss
We should do this again
I really dug the set
Some call it a ghost
I call it little vignette
Its not a movie, a TV episodical
Phenomenal performance
My little Tommy Shelby
Whiskey, tragic ending
Manic isnt healthy
Watching re-runs on my couch where you would kiss me
I’m no Grace
I am Polly the gypsy
The pen is mightier than the popsible
I’d do it all again just to write a bigger obstacle
Cus baby its impossible that you would stick around
After we FUUUUUUU-
Chorus
Cast me as the co-star
In your manic episode
I’ll play the role, it’s casual
Tell me when to go
If you’re the drug then f*** me up
Requiem for a dream
The mania, The mania, The mania
