Verse 1 Used to check the room before I spoke Hold my feelings in like a secret joke Try to be what everybody liked Hide the truest parts of me inside But a heart like mine was never made To live its whole life half afraid Little by little I can see It is finally safe to be me Pre-Chorus I can breathe out, I can stand tall I do not have to fear it all I can let my real self through And that is something beautiful Chorus It’s safe to be me Safe to be bright Safe to be joyful Safe to take light Safe to be soft Safe to be strong Safe to be fully who I was all along I don’t have to hide I don’t have to leave My heart has a home And it starts with me It’s safe to be me Post-Chorus Safe to be me Safe to be true Safe to be all the beautiful things I do Safe to be me Safe to believe There is a place in this world for me Verse 2 Maybe I cry when the moment’s big Maybe I dance when I feel the beat hit Maybe I care with my whole heart wide Maybe that is my power, not something to hide I don’t need to earn my place By changing my voice or changing my face I can belong and still be free It is finally safe to be me Pre-Chorus I can breathe out, I can stand tall I do not have to fear it all I can let my real self through And that is something beautiful Chorus It’s safe to be me Safe to be bright Safe to be joyful Safe to take light Safe to be soft Safe to be strong Safe to be fully who I was all along I don’t have to hide I don’t have to leave My heart has a home And it starts with me It’s safe to be me Bridge Hands on your heart if you needed this You were never too broken to be loved like this Every brave little part of you belongs Even the places that took so long Step by step, let the walls come down You do not have to disappear now You are wanted, you are free And it is safe to be you with me Final Chorus It’s safe to be me Safe to be bright Safe to be joyful Safe to take light Safe to be soft Safe to be strong Safe to be fully who I was all along I don’t have to hide I don’t have to leave My heart has a home And it starts with me It’s safe to be me Outro Safe to be me Safe to be true Safe to be shining the way I do
