She made it to her goal
He got his greatest wish
But when god built my soul
Somehow he felt I should never accomplish
All around things are going well
Surely my turn will follow
Now I've climbed every hill
Still watching them while i wallow
And I'm just going through the motions
Just going through the motions
Did you hear the story of a man
Who tried his very best
He seems to do all he can
Yet nothing would ever manifest
Now he pushes on through
Still fire in his heart
His very existence all in two
Until he gets what he wants
And I'm just going through the motions
Just going through the motions
And I'm just going through the motions
Just going through the motions
