[Bm] [Em] [F#m7] [Bm]
somewhere in a lonely hotel room, there’s a guy starting to realize
that eternal fate has turned it's back on him; it's two AM.
{end_of_part}
{start_of_verse: Verse 1}
it's [Bm]two a.m. the fear has gone
I'm [Em]sitting here waitin' the gun still warm
[F#m7]maybe my connection is tired of taken [Bm]chances
{end_of_verse}
{start_of_verse: Verse 2}
yeah there's a [Bm]storm on the loose, sirens in my head
I'm [Em]wrapped up in silence all circuits are dead
I [F#m7]cannot decode, my whole life spins into a [Bm]frenzy
{end_of_verse}
{start_of_chorus: Chorus 1}
[Bm] help, I'm steppin' into the twilight zone
the [A]place is a madhouse, feels like being cloned
my [G]beacon's been moved under moon and star
[F#]where am I to go, now that I've gone too far?
{end_of_chorus}

{start_of_verse: Verse 3}
I'm [Bm]falling down a spiral, destination unknown
a [Em]double crossed messenger all alone
I [F#m7]can't get no connection, I can't get through, where are [Bm]you?
{end_of_verse}
{start_of_verse: Verse 4}
well the [Bm]night weighs heavy on his guilty mind
[Em]this far from the borderline, and when the [F#m7]hitman comes,
he knows damn well he has been [Bm]cheated, and he says
