A momentary lapse of reason Has brought me back to you Even though I'll always know The hurt you've put me through With blinded eyes I come again My heart won't let me leave I can't deny the tears I cry The evidence, on my sleeve Doubt has now replaced the hope That made my world worth while Dread and fear will reappear And steal away my smile Like a puppet on a lonely stage My strings are in your hands I have no will to even feel Just following your commands Broken dreams your voice commands My will no more my own A lonely seed, a useless **** That you alone have sown I'm just going through the motions Tired and feeling used I tried today to stay away But again, my heart refused

Going Through the Motions
A momentary lapse of reason Has brought me back to you Even though I'll always know The hurt you've put me through With blinded eyes I come again My heart won't let me leave I can't deny the tears I cry The evidence, on my sleeve Doubt has now replaced the hope That made my world worth while Dread and fear will reappear And steal away my smile Like a puppet on a lonely stage My strings are in your hands I have no will to even feel Just following your commands Broken dreams your voice commands My will no more my own A lonely seed, a useless **** That you alone have sown I'm just going through the motions Tired and feeling used I tried today to stay away But again, my heart refused
