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, don't let it ring   And she'll be there wondering   It's been a long day but a longer night   This has been a long time coming      This is only the beginning   And 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 was angels all around you now   But 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   And in the end, you think you're winning   This is only a fake ending   Making yourself a way out      But 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   (Forgotten memories)   From all the images you keep   (Images you keep)   But in the end it's what you see   That tears you into pieces      (Do you think you'll just fade away?)      This is only the beginning   And in the end, you think you're winning   This is only a fake ending   Making yourself a way out      But when you close your eyes to sleep   (Close your eles to sleep)   Is the ending bittersweet?   (Ending bittersweet)   When you close your eyes to sleep   What do you see?      This is only the beginning   And in the end, you think you're winning
