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