Three minutes to midnight
Another scream another glass of beer,
another dream to wipe your tears,
an old newspaper on your bed
close to your mouth another cigarette.
Memories memories
so they say
Memories, memories
will be lost in time, like tears
like tears, like tears in rain
Chorus
Three minutes to midnight
Three minutes to fight
Three minutes to midnight
Three minutes to realize
An ancient shotgun in your hand
to fight the ghosts in your mind
some broken promises to face
a foolish army in a dark space.
And Memories memories
so they say
Memories, memories
will be lost in time, like tears
like tears, like tears in rain
Chorus
Three minutes to midnight
Three minutes to fight
Three minutes to midnight
Three minutes to realize
