I spent my life in the shadows

Creepin′ round the corners

Trying to find a home to landI've spent my nights feeling lonely

Dreaming of what could be

But this is where I take my stand

I might be nervous, but I′m an optimist

It's an adventure, ready to take the risk

Looking for monsters, looking for family

Could this be what I've been waiting for?

This is what I′ve been waiting for

Here I am

I′m coming out of the dark (oh, oh)

Not afraid to show my secrets or my scars (oh, oh)

This is where I'm finally free

This is where I′m meant to be

Here I am, I'm coming out of the dark

Out of the dark

So this is it, back at school still living by his rules

How can I find somewhere to breathe?

I′m not a king, that's him and no one tells him, "No"

I just need a chance to find my wings

I might be nervous, but I′m an optimist

It's an adventure

Ready to take the risk

I see the monsters

They look like family

This is what I've been waiting for

Here I am

I′m coming out of the dark (oh, oh)

Not afraid to show my secrets or my scars (oh, oh)

This is where I′m finally free

This is where I'm meant to be

Here I am, I′m coming out of the dark

Out of the dark

I might be nervous, but I'm an optimist

It′s an adventure

Ready to take the risk

I see the monsters

They look like family

This is what I've been waiting for

Here I am

I′m coming out of the dark (oh, oh)

Not afraid to show my secrets or my scars (oh, oh)

This is where I'm finally free

This is where I'm meant to be

Here I am, I′m coming out of the dark

Out of the dark
