[Verse 1]
Can you please
Slow down your motions
They're causing commotion
I can't keep up with
The way you're going anymore
Lay down dead roses
You've been holding
And rest your shoulders
You can't carry the cross
You've chosen anymore

[Refrain]
You're running through the motions of the emotionless
You're running through the motions of the emotionless

[Chorus]
Stop trying to show
How to save our souls
It takes dying to know
How to live as ghosts

[Verse 2]
Replay the process
Calling it progress
To calm down your conscience
But you cannot wear this crown
You've chosen anymore
[Refrain]
You're running through the motions of the emotionless
You're running through the motions of the emotionless

[Chorus]
Stop trying to show
How to save our souls
It takes dying to know
How to live as ghosts

[Refrain]
You're running through the motions of the emotionless
You're running through the motions of the emotionless

[Bridge]
The wind blows
Against the stone
And leaves the body cold
The wind blows
Against the stone
And leaves the body cold

[Chorus]
Stop trying to show
How to save our souls
It takes dying to know
How to live as ghosts
[Refrain]
You're running through the motions of the emotionless
You're running through the motions of the emotionless

[Outro]
You're trying to show
(You're running through the motions of the emotionless)
How to save our souls
It takes dying to know
(You're running through the motions of the emotionless)
How to live as ghosts
