- Going Through The Motions Lyrics / with translationsNever thought that I'd be the one to say I've had enough, yeah
I've opened up my closet, the skeletons are catching up,
I'm waiting for my chance to bail but the goddamn ship set sail,
I know without a doubt that I want out,
But there's not a chance in hell.
Time to admit it, a man's gotta live it,
Going through the motions,
I've hit the bottom, lost and forgotten, (?)
Going through the motions,
My mind's about to overload,
It's a timebomb and it's out to blow,
Then we'll be, (?)
Going through the motions, go, go, go.
Ten minutes later and finally I've got it up, (LOL)
You know that something's wrong when you've begun to gather dust,
So what's the point in aiming tall?
When you're guaranteed to fall,
My reflections cracked and looking back I'm so unrecognisable.
Time to admit it, a man's gotta live it,
Going through the motions,
I've hit the bottom, lost and forgotten, (?)
Going through the motions,
My mind's about to overload,
It's a timebomb and it's out to blow,
Then we'll be,(?)
Going through the motions, go, go, go.
Oooooh, oooooh,
Oooh, wahhh, oooooh. (?)
Going through the motions. (x 11)
Time to admit it, a man's gotta live it,
Oh, I've hit the bottom, lost and forgotten, (?)
Going through the motions,
My mind's about to overload,
It's a timebomb and it's out to blow,
Then we'll be, (?)
Going through the motions.
{Going through the motions,
(B-b-b-baby)}
