I never 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've been waiting for my chance to bail
But the god damn ship set sail
I know without a doubt that I wont out
But there's not a chance in hell
Time to admit it, a man's got a limit
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 set to blow
When we'll be
Going through the motions, go, go, go
Hey
10 minutes later and finally I've got it up
Oh yeah
You know that something's wrong when you begun to gather dust
So what's the point in aiming tall?
When you're guaranteed to fall
My reflections crack, and looking back
It's so unrecognisable
Time to admit it, a man's got a limit
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 set to blow
When we'll be
Going through the motions, go, go, go
Huh
Going through the motions
Going through the motions
Going through the motions
Going through the motions
Going through the motions
Going through the motions
Going through the motions
Going through the motions
Going through the motions
Going through the motions
Going through the motions
Woaw!
Time to admit it, a man's got a limit
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 set to blow
When we'll be
Going through the motions
Going through the motions
Going through the motions
Going through the motions
Going through the motions
Going through the motions
Going through the motions
Yeah
