Joel Havea - Going Through the Motions Lyrics

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 f*cken 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
