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