New Ages

New ages have come

Only to swallow whole

The empire set

Oh, how the mighty fall

I've been a queen

I've been fortune's fool

For wanting much more

Than I can hold onto

But if you want me to

Then I will hold on to you

I am diamond-pressed

But I still am coal

In my darkness

Just an animal

Chain me with the thread

From your holy spool

I'll never wed

But I can hold on to you

And you can hold me too

And I will hold on to you

Some love is built to last

Some primitive

Some will take much more

Than they will ever give

I'd like to build a love

That has no flag

Nothing for the wind

To whip and drag

But if you want me to

Then I will hold on to you

And you can hold me too

And I will hold on to you
