Locked inside my mind afraid of what they'd say
Hiding in the shadows scared to find my way
But deep within my heart a truth I can't deny
It's time to spread my wings it's time for me to fly

I've been living in the dark but now I see the light
No more hiding who I am it's time to end the fight
I'll stand up tall and proud let the whole world know
This is who I am it's time to let it show

I'm coming out gay no more hiding away
This is my truth and I'm here to stay
Love is love and I'm proud to say
I'm coming out gay I'm coming out gay

Whispers in the hallways rumors in the air
But I've found my courage no longer will I care
Friends who truly love me will stand by my side
In this journey of my life I won't run and hide

I've been living in the dark but now I see the light
No more hiding who I am it's time to end the fight
I'll stand up tall and proud let the whole world know
This is who I am it's time to let it show

I'm coming out gay no more hiding away
This is my truth and I'm here to stay
Love is love and I'm proud to say
I'm coming out gay I'm coming out gay

Every fear every tear has led me to this day
In the mirror now I see a smile that's here to stay
With every step I take I'll pave the way
For others who are scared I'll show them it's okay

I'm coming out gay no more hiding away
This is my truth and I'm here to stay
Love is love and I'm proud to say
I'm coming out gay I'm coming out gay

With love as my shield I'll face the dawn
In this journey of life I've found where I belong
I'm coming out gay my heart's leading the way
This is my story and I'm proud to say
