Michael W. Smith - Goin' Thru The Motions lyrics

Words & music: michael w. smith and wayne kirkpatrick 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 Bridge: Never true to yourself Knowing well this is not like you Fooling yourself You're just living a lie Chorus: Goin' goin' Goin' thru the motions Goin' goin' Goin' thru the motions Goin' goin' Goin' thru the motions Goin' goin' Goin' thru 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 Bridge: Never true to yourself This is not what you want to be Fooling yourself You're just living lie Chorus Bridge Chorus
