Manic ../../mp3/www.stonegrass.com-manic.mp3
He lost the feeling in his legs and head at the same time
The tracks were deep, respect was gone at the scene of this body crime
I've seen you lick the dirty ashtrays and suck the stains right out the floor
Unrecognised in spaces where your heart was years before

Can’t get up off the floor,
Can’t get up off the floor,
Can’t get up off the floor

He felt the warmth he felt the sound he felt his eyes begin to glaze
Forgot the life he’s meant to lead as he stumbled in that daze
He must have known a moment when his cause began to stray
He boiled the tears he tried to hide so kept them far away

Manic, manic annex
Panicked addict……………..
You don't know what I know
Manic, manic annex

Panicked addict……………..

Can’t get up off the floor,
Can’t get up off the floor
Can’t get up off the floor

I often thought about a time that I might have helped him through
I stood and looked into the hole, a second home he knew
He feared to be alone, now he’s in a crowded field
All lying very still and clear and waiting to be healed

Manic, manic annex
Panicked addict……………..
You don't know what I know
Manic, manic annex
Panicked addict……………..

Can’t get up off the floor,
Can’t get up off the floor,
Can’t get up off the floor.
