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
