C#mG#mAVerse 1:
C#mG#mA
I was born in a thunderstorm
C#mG#mA
I grew up overnight
C#mG#mA
I played alone I played on my own
G#7
But I survived
Hey
C#mG#mA
I wanted everything I never had
C#mG#mA
Like the love that comes with light
C#mG#mA
I wore envy and I hated that
G#
But I survived

Pre-Chorus:
C#mG#mA
I had a one-way ticket to a place where all the demons go
C#m
Where the wind don't change
G#mA
And nothing in the ground can ever grow
C#m
No hope, just lies
G#mA
And you're taught to cry into your pillow
G#7
But I survived
Chorus:
C#m
I'm still breathing, I'm still breathing
I'm still breathing, I'm still breathing

Verse 2:
C#mG#mA
I found solace in the strangest place
C#mG#mA
Way in the back of my mind
C#mG#mA
I saw my life in a stranger's face
G#7
And it was mine
Pre-Chorus:
C#mG#mA
I had a one-way ticket to a place where all the demons go
C#m
Where the wind don't change
G#mA
And nothing in the ground can ever grow
C#m
No hope, just lies
G#mA
And you're taught to cry into your pillow
G#7
But I survived

F#m
I have made every single mistake
C#mB
That you could ever possibly make
F#m
I took and I took and I took what you gave
C#mB
But you never noticed that I was in pain
F#m
I knew what I wanted; I went out and got it

I did all the things that you said that I wouldn't
