Lyrics
0:45Oh for the sake of momentum
0:48I've allowed my fears
0:50To get larger than life
0:52And it's brought me
0:54To my current agendum
0:56Whereupon I deny fulfillment
0:58Has yet to arrive
1:00And I know life is getting shorter
1:04I can't bring myself to set the scene
1:07Even when it's approaching torture
1:12I've got my routine
1:15Oh, for the sake of momentum
1:19Even though I agree with that stuff
1:20About seizing the day
1:22But I hate to think of effort expended
1:26All those minutes and days and hours
1:28I have frittered away
1:30I know life is getting shorter
1:34I can't bring myself to set the scene
1:38Even when it's approaching torture
1:42I've got my routine
1:45But I can't confront
1:47The doubts I have
1:50I can't admit
1:50That maybe the past was bad
1:53And so for the sake of momentum
1:56I'm condemning the future to death
1:58So it can match the past
2:30When I can't confront
2:31The doubts I have
2:34I can't admit
2:35That maybe the past was bad
2:37And so for the sake of momentum
2:41I'm condemning the future to death
2:42So it can match the past
Oh for the sake of momentum I've allowed my fears To get larger than life And it's brought me To my current agendum Whereupon I deny fulfillment Has yet to arrive And I know life is getting shorter I can't bring myself to set the scene Even when it's approaching torture I've got my routine Oh, for the sake of momentum Even though I agree with that stuff About seizing the day But I hate to think of effort expended All those minutes and days and hours I have frittered away I know life is getting shorter I can't bring myself to set the scene Even when it's approaching torture I've got my routine But I can't confront The doubts I have I can't admit That maybe the past was bad And so for the sake of momentum I'm condemning the future to death So it can match the past When I can't confront The doubts I have I can't admit That maybe the past was bad And so for the sake of momentum I'm condemning the future to death So it can match the past
