Artist: McFly

Album: Radio:ACTIVE

  • Songwriters: Thomas Fletcher, Daniel Alan Jones, Dougie Lee Poynter

One, two, three, four

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'm waiting for my chance to bail
But the goddamn ship set sail
I know without a doubt that I want out
But there's not a chance in hell

Time to admit it, a man's gotta live it
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 time bomb and it's out to blow
Then we'll be going through the motions
Go, go, go

Ten minutes later and finally I've got it up
You know that something's wrong
When you've begun to gather dust

So what's the point in aiming tall
When you're guaranteed to fall
My reflections cracked and looking back
I'm so unrecognizable

Time to admit it, a man's gotta live it
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 time bomb and it's out to blow
Then we'll be going through the motions
Go, go, go

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

Time to admit it, a man's gotta live it
Oh, I've hit the bottom, lost and forgotten
Going through the motions

My mind's about to overload
It's a time bomb and it's out to blow
Then 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
