Mania Lyrics

What means hallucinate? what are we supposed to see?
What are they supposed to want? get a job! you scare me
I sing here I'm alone here I'm with you over here
Marshmallow brain I need an umbrella
If I'm gonna stand in the rain
My hands are cupped and full of blood
My eyes are spirals I am on my knees and praying
That is how I pray cause thatis how you pray
Rat rat rat rat rat rat
Tongue thickens I am with those who eat drugs
Who peek over the wall and get shocked
Shocking is therapy
Electrify your head!
Pianos in my hearing Vincent, me ear is falling off
Who left me alone? What do you mean you're alone?
Goddamn wolves
No one has that dream
Hallucinate I need an umbrella
If I'm gonna go insane
I think she wanna be crazy pick a brain!
I think I'm running away
Oh boy, God? I'm gonna scare that boy again?
Not again
Centerdale to Providence Middletown to Armageddon
A road is in my dream Centerdale is in my dream
Drums! carry me over the wall
You! left me alone what do you mean you're alone?
I peek over the wall and get sick
Sickness is therapy electrify your head!
Catalyst I need an umbrella
If I'm gonna slit my wrist
Pick your hands up
Put them on your head
Move it around and say
This is too much it doesn't fit
Your feet say nothing but move your hips
Move your hips, move your hips
Rat rat rat rat rat rat
Mania

Cover art for Mania lyrics by Throwing Muses

This has always meant to me to be about a manic episode (and since Kristin is bipolar, I'm thinking I'm right lol) but this song is EXACTLY what, when I think of a manic episode, A MANIC EPISODE IS in the form of music! ----its fast moving, jumping from subject to subject (and has bizarre subjects) In this I think Kristin herself is trying to figure out exactly what it means to have manic depression - she starts by trying to figure out hallucinations and describes how they frighten her and in a funny way she tells them to go away with "get a job" like and stop bugging me lol!! Then she goes on to talk about ECT or electroconvulsive therapy - which is [thought to be] a treatment for bipolar disorder "shocking is therapy" then its like the thoughts in her head are moving so fast that its like a road going everywhere "centredale to prov..." and then the song gets even more terrifying when it shows how quickly people while manic can move onto thoughts of suicide - this song is so amazing!! every bipolar person should have to listen to it!!
