So you've been doing time
Solitarily confined
For learning early on that love ain't bound by shape or size

But you're perfect can't you see
You're braver than they'll ever be
So take a stand it's in your hands
You hold the lock and key

Say this is my exit
My one way out
The lone sign of light in all of this dark
Don't you dare follow
Don't stand in my way
Cuz it will get better
Starting today

You're paralyzed with fear
And your future seems so unclear
You can't imagine how this cruel world can dry your tears

But if you open up that door
You'll discover that there's so much more
And you'll find a happiness, the kind you've never known before

Say this is my exit
My one way out
The lone sign of light in all of this dark
Don't you dare follow
Don't stand in my way
Cuz it will get better
Starting today

They'll find with an army of anger and hate
You'll battle with pride and truth and dignity and grace
The history books will one day say
That you helped pave the way
For love to conquer all and save the day
Starting today

This is my exit
My one way out
The lone sign of light in all of this dark
Don't you dare follow
Don't stand in my way
Cuz it will get better
Starting today
(It will get better)
Starting today
(It will get better)
Starting today
(It will get better)
Oh yeah
It will get better
