Lyrics:

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, uh-huh
Hold on to me
Hold on to me, uh-huh
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, uh-huh
Hold on to me
Hold on to me, uh-huh
Hold on to me

Oh, how he brings me down
Oh, down into the ground
I never will get ah-ya-ah-ya-out
And I never will get ah-ya-ah-ya-out
And I'll protect you from the night, it will never fall
And 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

When you're in the whirlpool
And they try to suck you in, remember
You aren't gonna drown, baby, 'till you have had a life
Hang on to me forever, baby, I could always swim

Hold on to me, uh-huh
Hold on to me, uh-huh
Hold on to me, uh-huh (Hold on to me!)
Hold on to me, uh-huh
Hold on to me, uh-huh (Hold on to me!)
Hold on to me, uh-huh
Hold on to me, uh-huh (Hold on to me!)
Hold on me

Hush, your highness, don't you breathe
Oh, baby, hold me in your arms, I'm shivering
What was all that for?
If I was the battle, baby, you have won the war
