[Verse 1]
Teeth on the curb of my own mind
Bite down hard on every doubt I find
I wear my scars like a crooked crown
Laughing as the ceiling crashes down (yeah)
[Verse 2]
Pills in a row on a cracked nightstand
Phone screen bleeding in my shaking hand
Every missed call is a loaded gun
But I keep pulling triggers just for fun
[Chorus]
I am the maniac
Dancing in the fallout
Grinning in the graveyard
Tearing all the rot out
If I lose control
I finally feel alive
Let the whole world break
I’ll claw my way through fire
I am the maniac
I am the maniac
[Verse 3]
Mirror on the wall says “you’re not fine”
So I carve a smile in the foggy shine
Hear my thoughts like a courtroom choir
Argue over who should start the fire (start the fire)
[Verse 4]
Friends step back when the fuse runs short
They see a storm where I see sport
Every red flag is a racing sign
I don’t hit the brakes
I cross that line
[Bridge]
Count it out
One cut deeper
Two shots cheaper
Three more sleeps
You won’t wake up
So I
Rip that script
Spit that venom
Turn my poison into luck (hey!)
[Chorus]
I am the maniac
Dancing in the fallout
Grinning in the graveyard
Tearing all the rot out
If I lose control
I finally feel alive
Let the whole world break
I’ll claw my way through fire
I am the maniac
I am the maniac
