Going through the motions

Every single night
The same arrangement
I sit there and try to write
Still I always feel
This strange estrangement
Nothing here is real
Nothing here is right
I’ve been making shows of writing flows
Just hoping no one knows
That I’ve been
Going through the motions
Walking through the part
Nothing seems to penetrate my heart

I was always brave
And kind of righteous
Now I find I’m wavering
Crawl out of my brain
You find this writing just
Doesn’t mean a thing

Will I stay this way forever
Sleepwalk through my life’s endeavor

I don’t want to be
Going through the motions
Losing all my drive
I can’t even see if this is really me
And I just want to be
Alive
