Going through the motions

Good morning Weekly Beaters! I hope this post-midnight message finds you all very well indeed. The standard keeps getting higher, my favourites list is harder to navigate every week and my mind is boggling at the fact that I'm somehow managing to keep up with you all! I have dreadful self-control, you see, and once more I must drop a sincere gratitude-bomb on the generous fans here - your feedback is really appreciated 
A more mellow, broody Dr. Mindflip is in the house this week - turn the lights down, pour something bitter and enjoy!
Going through the motions:
I'm digging it out
I'm building it now
It's in the ground
I'm digging it now
While plucking on these bass strings
I long for neon shores
My Janus face sings
"There's me, and me on tour"
Sleepless blood is racing
My edges curl with fire
In heated anticipation
Of a ride to somewhere higher
Higher
I'm passed-out on the coat-tails
Just being dragged along
The dusty broken glass trails
Of some old bastard's song
Still...it's the life of legends
Rubbing shoulders with the bards
Ignoring cries of dead-ends
Head is older, heart is hard
Heart is hard
So hard
I'm digging it out
It's something to get freaky about
I'm building it now
It's reinforced for when shit gets loud
It's in the ground
A fallout shelter for this Late Late town
I'm digging a hole
A reservoir for my soul
I'm going through the motions
It's a venomous waste of days
I'm sick and tired of all these wires
This jaded, bloodless maze
A man of few emotions
My fun is just part-time
I'm done with feeling sixty
Vexted, reeling twenty-five
I'm done with going through the motions
Floundering in oceans of acidic soul-corrosion
It's drawing to a close
So this show's on me
Thanks for listening! Have a free album (or two) and find me on Facebook
