F#m D A A x2
F#m    D           A
I went down to the seaside

                          F#m
Searching for a part of myself

       D       A
that I lost at age nine

F#m         D
Glow in the dark stars

      A
and a night light

                        F#m                     D              A
was the only thing that kept me from thinking i really do have monsters under my bed 

  F#m                 D
i thought i checked before

             A                  E
i could have sworn i closed the door
F#m D A A x2
F#m          D            A                       F#m                D
i keep going down to that seaside hoping that the tide will bring it in

   A
my darkest light

F#m         D          A
that was my armour that night
F#m D A A x2
F#m     D              A                             F#m              D       A
i can't help but think i don't want to be alive in a world where it's okay to be a thief in the night

F#m         D        A
i think you stole my stardust

        F#m         D                       A                          F#m      D         A
because i can't for one moment believe that i am anything other than a suicidal galaxy of unhappy thoughts 

      F#m     D       A
and a gift of seeking morality
F#m D A A x2
F#m        D            A
I don't go down to that seaside anymore

F#m          D           A
that missing stardust is long gone im sure

F#m        D          A                                  F#m        D                           A
this is my ode to the kids with locks on their doors who wonder why anyone would treat them like this

F#m         D          A
for the survivors, the wiser, the mistreated:

        F#m                  D                     A
you are not a mistake, this isn't your fate, let's choose where we go from here

F#m
screw the poets

D            A
there are no beautiful suicides

     F#m               D
your memory isn't your legacy

A              E
you are art alive

F#m        
you are here.

D
you are here.

A
you've made it this far

F#m
please stay here

D
please stay here

A           E
please stay
