Going Through the Motions

I come and go but never really get ahead

I think I know but do the opposite instead

Try to control the urges running through my head

Have I missed it or is it just late?

How did I get to be the one behind?

Don’t I try? The thought’ll go and loose my mind

Wasting my time working on the fucken fly

Has it departed or is it delayed?

And I find myself just going through the motions

Which isn’t the best realisation to have

Though I try

To tell myself

That it’s all right

I’m lying looking myself in the eye

 

Seem so young, circles slowly hypntoise

Had my fun and back before I realise

There’s only one shadow from a distant sun

Am I in it or it just shade?

And I find myself just going through the motions

Which isn’t the best realisation to have

And it is so hard to see

Through routine reality

So I keep lying looking myself in the eye

And I find myself just going through the motions

Which isn’t the best realisation to have

And it is so hard to see

Through routine reality

So I keep lying, I keep lying, I keep lying

I’m lying looking myself in the eye
