Kid Cudi ft. Cage - Maniac

|

This song is an exploration of the darkness that lies within. Along with the video, Cudi starred in a short film with the same title. It's an extension on the characters presented in the song and is definitely worth watching. It tells the story of two serial killers who vow to kill 8 people, all while being filmed. I'll put it above the music video, it's that damn important.

Lyrics:  



[Intro]
Paint the black hole blacker {*6X*}

[Talking over Intro]
Yeah
I swear to tell the truth
The whole truth
And nothing but
Yes
Hey

[Kid Cudi]
I am the maniac, I am the ghoul (the ghoul)
I'm in the shadows in the corner of my room (my room)
This my new hideaway, this is my tomb (tomb)
This is my coffin, this is my place for unruliness
No worries; I love the darkness yeah
I'd like to marry it - it is my cloak it is my shield
It is my cape! I love the dark maybe we can make it darker
Give me a marker

[Hook: St. Vincent]
I am a maniac {*3X*}

[Cage]
I am the maniac, I am the fool
I found a monster in me when I lost my cool
It lives inside of me, eating what's in its way
I put black spraypaint on my windows during the day
I want to spend time with it, I think I'm losin it
Or I found it and I'm usin it
I wear my shades at night so I can look in the abyss
I see something in nothingness if you can picture this
Put black holes in my jar lid; I climb the wall
I'm too high now, I'll die from the fall
Before the water's to our knees, we can't climb when the trees
Wash away, you and I are the disease

[Hook]
