yeah, and you know my favorite part? "he couldn't see me, the sun was in his eyes." like, he was so manic he wouldn't pay any attention to her. love it.
I think she is singing about a person with Bipolar disorder also known as manic depression, I have it, so i can relate to this song so much. So beautiful and passionate, makes me cry :') She should of got all the publishing she deserved unlike artists like jason derulo ECT
being manic means there is no in-between with a persons emotions. they're either completely happy "his GOOD days deceive him" or they have their low days where a manic is depressed and in extremes suicidal. "he wants to die by a lake Geneva." or pretty much the entire first verse.
I'm afraid you may have a confused definition of bipolar disorder. Bipolar people experience a full range of emotion, in fact they can go days, weeks & sometimes months or years without manic/depressive episodes (without medication the days/weeks is more typical). Even during episodes there is great variation in mood, they just go to greater extremes than is called for by a given situation.
"Manic" is sort of like the opposite of depression; instead of being constantly upset and mopey someone with mania feels angry or excited at an unhealthy level/length of time. "Manic" is greek for 'frenzy, madness.' It's basically craziness. :3
okay one question - is it really "them eats"? "avoiding them eats"? that's all i've seen, is that what is says in the lyric book? is there some english lingo i don't understand? it's not like "their mates" or something sensical like that? i do love this song though. don't get me wrong. i just get a little hung up when i'm singin it.
