Buffy:
every single night
the same arrangement
i go out and fight the fight
still i always feel
this strange estrangement
nothing here is real,
nothing here is right!
i've been making shows
of trading blows
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 your grave,
you'll find this fight
just doesn't mean a thing
Vampire i:
she ain't got that swing
Buffy:
thanks for noticing!
Vamp i + ii:
she is pretty well with things from hell
but lately we can tell
that she's been going through the motions
faking it somehow
Demon:
she's not even half the girl she--ow!!
Buffy:
will i stay this way forever?
sleepwalk through my life's endeavor?
Rescuee:
how can i repay--
Buffy:
whatever!
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!!
