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
Ach, ach (x4)

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
Ach, ach (x4)

Oh how he brings me down
Oh, down into the ground
I never will get out
And I never will get out

And I'll protect you from the night
It will never fall
I'll protect you from the truth
Won't hear it at all
I am the centre of the unverise (x3)

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 alive
Hang on to me, forever baby
I could always swim

Hold on to me
Ach, ach (x8)

Hush, your highness
Don't you breathe
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
