I was born in a closet
And it took a little time for my eyes to adjust
I was born in a closet
Surrounded by clothes and shoes and dust

Down the hall, I saw other people leaving
And I wondered why I didn't do the same
I stood up to open the door
But it was locked and I only had myself to blame

But what does it matter?
The closet's safe and it's quiet and there's nothing to fear
So why should I leave?
Am I a skeleton? Oh maybe I belong in here

I imagined what it might be like
Living out on the other side
But for the life of me I just couldn't visualize
Opening the door even though I tried

No one tells you that you might miss it
No one tells you you can't get back in when you leave
No one tells you you'll be locked out
No one tells you you might have to grieve

I was born in a closet
I was alone, no one knew where to find me
I was running out of air, but
I wasn't sure that I wanted to be free

Because the closet was a comfort
It was my own little space
And yet I felt kind of lonely
And I was ready to show my face

No one tells you that you might miss it
No one tells you you can't get back in when you leave
No one tells you you'll be locked out
No one tells you you might have to grieve

The place where I made a little home is gone
And my secrets no longer belong to me
And there's much to fear but it's bright out here
And at least I can breathe because now I'm free

When you're born in a closet
Well you can't bring your clothes when you go
So you lose all your layers
That kept you safe and hidden, they all know

But you finally get to talk to the others
Instead of listening through the door
There's so much fear, so much hatred
But of hope and love, there's so much more

And it's okay to wait for a while
Until the right people will greet you on the other side
When you're used to dust moths and darkness
It's okay to take your time

No one tells you that you might miss it
No one tells you you can't get back in when you leave
No one tells you you'll be locked out
No one tells you you might have to grieve

The place where I made a little home is gone
And my secrets no longer belong to me
And there's much to fear but it's bright out here
And at least I can breathe because now I'm free

The place where I made a little home is gone
And my secrets no longer belong to me
And there's much to fear but it's bright out here
And at least I can breathe because now I'm free

The place where I made a little home is gone
And my secrets no longer belong to me
And there's much to fear but it's bright out here
And at least I can breathe because now I'm free

Because now I'm free
