Here I Am

They tell you a good girl is quiet and that you should never ask why

'Cause it only makes it harder to fit in

You should be happy, excited, even if you're just invited

'Cause the winners need someone to clap for them

It's so hard just waitin' in a line that never moves

It's time you started makin' your own rules

You gotta scream until there's nothin' left

With your last breath say, "here I am, here I am"

Make 'em listen

'Cause there's no way you'll be ignored, not anymore

So here I am, here I am, here I am

Uh-oh, oh, here I am, oh, oh

You only get one life to work it, so who cares if it's not perfect?

Say it's close enough to perfect for me

Why should you hide from the thunder

And the lightning that you're under?

'Cause there ain't nobody else you wanna be

If how you're livin' isn't workin', there's one thing that'll help

You gotta, finally, just stop searchin' to find yourself, oh

You gotta scream until there's nothin' left

With your last breath say, "here I am, here I am"

Make 'em listen

'Cause there's no way you'll be ignored, not anymore

So here I am, here I am, here I am

The world better make some room

Yeah, move over, over

'Cause you're comin' through

'Cause you're comin' through!

You gotta scream until there's nothin' left

With your last breath say, "here I am, here I am"

Make 'em listen

'Cause there's no way you'll be ignored, not anymore

So here I am, here I am, here I am

Uh-oh, oh, here I am, uh-oh, oh

Here I am
