Michael W. Smith - Going Through The Motions lyrics

Actions have been justified All is compromised Looking for approval there In someone else's eyes, oh Dodging all you really are Becomes your greatest task Acting out your lonely part You hide behind your mask Never true to yourself Knowing well this is not like you Fooling yourself You're just living a lie Goin' goin' Goin' through the motions Goin' goin' Goin' through the motions Goin' goin' Goin' through the motions Goin' goin' Goin' through the motions Victim of the circumstance Prisoner of the shame But it's the double standard life That keeps you in the game Taken by your own disguise But when it's wearing thin You'll do anything it takes To impress your friends Never true to yourself This is not what you want to be Fooling yourself You're just living lie Goin' goin' Goin' through the motions Goin' goin' Goin' through the motions Goin' goin' Goin' through the motions Goin' goin' Goin' through the motions Never true to yourself Knowing well this is not like you Fooling yourself You're just living a lie Goin' goin' Goin' through the motions Goin' goin' Goin' through the motions Goin' goin' Goin' through the motions Goin' goin' Goin' through the motions
