Em                  G
I love the time and in between
D 
The calm inside me
Em                  G
In this space where I can breathe
D                      Em             G         D              Em
I believe there is a distance I have wandered to touch upon the years
G        D        Em      C
Reaching out and reaching in
G       D
Holding out
C
Holding in


Am7  D   Em                 Am7     D  
I believe this is heaven to no one else but me
Em                        Am7   D    Em                    Am7
And I'll defend it long as I can be left here to linger in silence
      D                  Am7        D
If I choose to would you try to understand


Em               G            D
The quiet child awaits the day when she can break free
Em              G              D
The mold that clings like desperation
  Em                 G               D                             Am7
Oh mother don't you see I've got to live my life the way I feel is right for me
D                                    Am7
Say it's not right for you but it's right for me



Am7  D   Em                 Am7     D  
I believe this is heaven to no one else but me
Em                        Am7   D    Em                    Am7
And I'll defend it long as I can be left here to linger in silence
      D                  Am7        D
If I choose to would you try to understand
