Three o' clock on your watch as you stagger out into the street

Whisky soaked, you light up a cigarette

for the way it feels between your fingers

Hold the phone, no let it ring

(She'll be there wondering)

It's been a long day but a longer night,

and this has been a long

(time coming)



This only the beginning, in the end you think you're winning

This is only a fake ending, making yourself a way out



In your room, in your room, where you pace back and forth

There were angels all around you now you can't see them anymore

You take this pill from the bottle and now swallow

Giving in is not the problem, no, it's the dosage that will do you in



This is only the beginning, in the end you think you�re winning

This is only a fake ending, making yourself a way out

When you close your eyes to sleep

Is the ending bittersweet?

When you close your eyes to sleep

What do you see



All the forgotten memories 



From all the images you keep

But in the end it'd what you see

That tears you into pieces



Do you think you'll just fade away
