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