Hey, this life is never fair
The angels that you need are never there
But sometimes he comes to me
In the dead of winter, dead of night
He's all that I can see
Hold on to me
Hold on to me
Hold on to me
Hold on to me
We all get our glory
Our little bit of fame
But there's no truth at the heart of any of it
Just the brilliance and the passion
And the bitterness remains
Hold on to me
Hold on to me
Hold on to me
Hold on to me
Oh, how he brings me down
Oh, down into the ground
I never will get out
I never will get out
I'll protect you from the night
It will never fall
I'll protect you from the truth
You won't hear it at all
I am the center of the universe
I am the center of the universe
I am the center of the universe
And you're in the whirlpool
And they try to suck you in
Remember, you aren't gonna drown, baby
Until you are out of life
Hang on to me forever, baby
I can always swim
Hold on to me
Hold on to me
Hold on to me
Hold on to me
Hold on to me
Hold on to me
Hold on to me
Hold on to me
Hush, your highness
Don't you breathe
Oh, baby, hold me in your arms
I'm shivering
But what's all this for?
If I was the battle
Baby, you have won the war
