C Csus2
I was raging, it was late
Cadd9 C
In the world my demons cultivate
Am F C
I felt the strangest emotion but it wasn't hate, for once
C Csus2
Yes I'm changing, yes I'm gone
Cadd9 C
Yes I'm older, yes I'm moving on

And if you don't think it's a crime you can come along, with me

Life is moving, can't you see
Cadd9 C
There's no future left for you and me

I was holding and I was searching endlessly

But baby, now there's nothing left that I can do so
Cadd9 C
So don't be blue

There is another future waiting there for you
C Csus2
I saw it different, I must admit
Cadd9 C
I caught a glimpse, I'm going after it
Am F C
They say people never change, but that's bullshit, they do
C Csus2
Yes I'm changing, can't stop it now
Cadd9 C
And even if I wanted I wouldn't know how

Another version of myself I think I found, at last

Curse indulgence and despise the fame

And it's calling yours, girl it's calling yours too
