Intro
G#m x 4
[Verse 1]
G#m
I fought so hard to keep it all buried
G#m
Far beneath the surface of my skin
G#m
Running fast, away from the past
G#m
‘Til I learned to let it all back in
[Pre Chorus]
E
I was so afraid, for so long
G#m
Of all these emotions
F#
Until gradually I freed myself
D#
By swimming through these oceans
[Chorus]
G#m
I’ve been living in a haunted castle
G#m
Searching for the windows and doors
G#m
An illusion fills my mind
G#m
So uncertain and unsure
E
But the mask is fading now
G#m
As I look in the mirror
F#
I catch a glimpse of you
D#
And arrive at another detour
[Break]
G#m x 4
[Verse 2]
G#m
I’m starting to make peace with my demons
G#m
The ones that haunt me in my sleep
G#m G#m
Playing hide and seek, these lessons they teach
G#m
As I ride these waves of fear and grief
[Pre Chorus]
E
I was so afraid, for so long
G#m
Of all these emotions
F#
Until gradually I freed myself
D#
By swimming through these oceans
[Chorus]
G#m
I’ve been living in a haunted castle
G#m
Searching for the windows and doors
G#m
An illusion fills my mind
G#m
So uncertain and unsure
E
But the mask is fading now
G#m
As I look in the mirror
F#
I catch a glimpse of you
D#
And arrive at another detour
