[Verse]
G#
I'm not a kid anymore
G#
Well I wasn't before
Emaj7 C#m
I grew up on my own behind locked doors
G#
My house was empty, no walls
G#
The ceilings endlessly tall
Emaj7 C#m
And yet I felt I had no freedom at all
G#
And they'd say
F#
They'd come back for me one day
Emaj7 F#
And they told me it was gonna be okay
G#
And they'd lie
F#
When they'd look me straight in the eyes
Emaj7 F#
And they told me I had time to stay a child
G#
For a while
G#
I'd make a breakfast for two
G#
Pretend to give it to you
Emaj7 C#m
My imaginary friend I never knew
G#
C# friendly face in the morning
G#
Would often serve as a warning
Emaj7 C#m
For the party dress my mother would be adorning
G#
And they'd say
F#
They'd come back for me one day
Emaj7 F#
And they told me it was gonna be okay
G#
And they'd lie
F#
When they'd look me straight in the eyes
Emaj7 F#
And they told me I had time to stay a child
Emaj7 G#
Sneaking out onto my roof at night
Emaj7 G#
Hoping someday I might find
D# C#
Something to believe in
Cm A#
The stars would help with grieving
G#
So I'd stay
F#
In my castle locked away
Emaj7 F#
C# prisoner for the remainder of my days
G#
But at night
F#
When the moon was shining bright
Emaj7 F#
I told myself there was something just out of sight
G#
Out of sight
