Manic Depression Songtext
von Rozz Williams & Gitane DeMone

Manic depression
Manic depression
Manic depression
Manic depression
Manic depression
Manic depression
Manic depression
Is searchin′ my soul
I know what I want
But I really don't know
Feelin′, sweet feelin'
I wish I could remember
Manic depression
You're searchin′ my soul
I′m a woman, so weary
My sweet cause is in vain
I make love, take love, break love
It's all the same when it′s over
Feelin', sweet feelin′
I wanna caress


Manic depression
You've captured my soul
I was awakened one night
With a sack thrown over my body
And arguments about where to bury the dead
I felt alone and abandoned
Cast into tumbling waves
And suddenly I am out of the light half-naked
And children stare open-mouthed
At my crippled frame
Hunched inside the chaos of my love
And I don′t even know who I am
And my shoulders in white softness
Wings of a dove crushed beneath stone
Hidden tears impatient
Wiped away with bruised, cut palms
A creature sold off to the evil ones
And I try to imagine
The manner in which to operate
Waiting for love to emerge
Instead, it will stagnate
Sink down into itself
And make me suffer mournful shadows
And still there is no room for me
No room for me
Think I'm gonna turn myself off
And go on down
'Cause there really ain′t no use
In me hangin′ around
Music, sweet music
I wanna caress
Manic depression
You frustrate me
I must hunt to keep the channel open
And I must hope to keep the fires alive
So the stars don't fall down tonight
Hoped for happy days
Hoped for love to stay
Manic depression
For my own
Instead, I will stagnate
Sink down into myself
Born to suffer
Born for shadows
And still there is no room
Manic depression
Manic depression
Manic depression
Manic depression
Manic depression
