Lyrics:
There's no doubt in my mind when it's over
What is done will be
You will find when life gets colder
There's no sympathy
There's no point trying
You can't escape the bitter end
Well who will greet you
When you're at the bitter end
All your choices chosen you've got no say
Your decisions made
Face your consequences
As your life begins to fade
As time keeps spinning
Closer to the bitter end
Well who will greet you
When you're at the bitter end
Take a look at yourself as time keeps racing
Is all you've come to be
What you expected
Or are you still chasing possibilities
Cause all your prayers
Won't save you from the bitter end
Well who will greet you
When you're at the bitter end
The bitter end
