Out of the Shadows

Ssshh

Follow me into the dream world

My name is Twyla, a sweet boogeymonster

That lives in your dreams

In the library, that's where you'll find me

Reading history

Ooh, I'm not ready to grow up

I just wanna daydream everyday

Ooh, get lost in the shadows

Yeah, that's where you'll find me

I'm a boogeymonster that lives in your dreams

Inside your nightmares, that's where I'll be

I've been hiding in the dark

But now I'm finally stepping out of the shadows

Of the shadows

I move from the dream world straight into the real world

Glowing eyes in the dark

What used to scare me now gives me power

And sets me apart (ah)

I'm a boogeymonster that lives in your dreams

Inside your nightmares, that's where I'll be

I've been hiding in the dark

But now I'm finally stepping out of the shadows

Of the shadows

A little shy, I'm a little bit sweet

And I can read even when I'm asleep

Yeah, I been hiding in the dark

But now I'm finally stepping out of the shadows

Of the shadows

I've got stories of monsters that live in my head (in my head)

People and places I'll never forget (I'll never forget)

The shadows are dancing, they creep up the walls (creep up the walls)

But that don't define me at all

Counting dust bunnies underneath my bed (underneath my bed)

I faced all my fears and turned them into friends (hey, Dustin)

Now I'm ready to grow up and see what comes next

I'm ready

I'm a boogeymonster that lives in your dreams

Inside your nightmares, that's where I'll be

I've been hiding in the dark

But now I'm finally stepping out of the shadows

Of the shadows

A little shy, I'm a little bit sweet

And I can read even when I'm asleep

Yeah, I been hiding in the dark

But now I'm finally stepping out of the shadows

Of the shadows

Out of the shadows
