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 waiting in a line
That never moves
It's time that you started
Making your own rules
You gotta scream
Until there's nothing 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
Say, here I am, here I am
Here I am, here I am
Here I am
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 living isn't working
There's one thing that will help
You gotta finally stop searching
To find yourself, oh
You gotta scream
Until there's nothing 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
Say, here I am, here I am
Here I am
The world better make some room
Yeah, move over, over
'Cause you're coming through
'Cause you're coming through
You gotta scream
Until there's nothing left
With your last breath
Here I am, here I am
Make 'em listen
'Cause there's no way
You'll be ignored
Not anymore
Say, here I am, here I am
Here I am, here I am
Here I am
