If I could choose a song that represents my coming-out story, this would definitely be it. I mashed two different songs together to create this and it definitely comes from the heart. I re-wrote some of the lyrics to fit and I think it works really well with the song. Even though this song for me represents coming out, it really can be for everyone who has ever felt different and out of place.
Thanks for listening.

Lyrics:
I have often dreamed of a far-off place
Where a great warm welcome would be waiting for me
Where the crowds will cheer when they see my face
Where a voice keeps saying this is where I'm meant to be
I will find a way I can go the distance
I'll be there someday if I can be strong
I know every mile will be worth my while
I would go 'most anywhere to feel like I belong
Somewhere over the rainbow way up high
There's a land that I've heard of once in a lullaby,
Somewhere over the rainbow skies are blue
And the dreams that you dare to dream really do come true
Down an unknown road to embrace my fate
And if the path should wander, I'll push on and pursue
Cause a thousand years would be worth the wait
I would walk a lifetime when it leads to the truth
I won't look back I can go the distance
I will stay on track, in my heart, this can't be wrong
It's an uphill slope, but I won't lose hope
Cause I know when I am there, I know that I'll belong
