Aimee Mann - Momentum lyrics

[Verse 1:]

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

[Chorus:]

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

[Verse 2:]

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.

[Chorus]

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

[Bridge 1:]

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.

[Bridge 2:]

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.
