I've spent my life in the shadows
Creepin' 'round the corners
Tryin' to find a home to land
I've spent my nights feelin' lonely
Dreamin' 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
Lookin' for monsters, lookin' for family
Could this be what I've been waiting for?
This is what I've been waiting for

Here I am, I'm comin' 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 comin' out of the dark
Out of the dark

So this is it, back at school, still livin' by his rules
How can I find some air 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 waitin' for

Here I am, I'm comin' 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 comin' 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 waitin' for

Here I am, I'm comin' 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 comin' out of the dark
Out of the dark
