Through the Motions

Well, I've giving you all I got

Now I'm nothing

So get back to your own sweet oblivion

I'm going out to get hurt tonight

That's all there

We might as well just keep on dancing

I put my faith in original sin

A lifetime of lies went undiscovered

I put it all on black until I won it back

I left no tracks uncovered

You better change some things

Or some things are gonna change

Do you

Do you ever get the notion?

'Cuz you're

'Cuz you're going through the motions

You

Do you ever get the notion?

That you're

That you're just going round again

Modesty dies the minute we're born

You learn to swear before you can talk

Every fool that preys on honor and faith

Knows deep inside that the game is lost

The years we wasted, the tears we tasted

Tattoed our lovers' names under our skin

Be your own messiah in this mortal coled world

A halo, wings, horns and a tail

You better change some things

Or some things are gonna change

Do you

Do you ever get the notion?

'Cuz you're

'Cuz you're going through the motions

You

Do you ever get the notion?

That you're

That you're just going round again

Threw in my money and made a wish

wished for my own independence

So run on home before it's dark

Pull out the arrows

From your bleeding heart

Do you

Do you ever get the notion?

'Cuz you're

'Cuz you're going through the motions

You

Do you ever get the notion?

That you're

That you're just going round again
