Going Through the Motions

Going through the motions.
I'm not happy.
I'm not sad.

Going through the motions.
Looking good.
And feeling bad.

Going through the motions.

I see red.

Going through the motions.
I get up.
I go to bed.

Going through the motions.
I play at work.

Going through the motions.
What can I do?
What can I say?
