Buffy The Vampire Slayer - Overture/Going Through The Motions lyrics

(Buffy)

Every single night the same arrangement,

I go out and fight the fight

Still I always feel the strangest strangement,

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 waviering

You crawl out of your grave,

You find this fight just doesn't mean a thing

(Vampire)

She ain't got that swing

(Buffy)

Thanks for noticing

(Two Vampires and a Demon)

She does pretty well with fiends from hell,

But lately we can tell that she's just 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 endevor...

(Handsome guy she saved)

How can I repay?

(Buffy)

Whatever, I don't wanna be...

Going through the motions,

Loosing all my drive

I can't even see if this is really me

And I just wanna be... alive
