When I was young
I thought I was wrong
I thought I was weird
I felt alone on this earth

When I was young
I was not happy
I was not myself
I felt alone on this earth

I was like no one in my class
just the girl who was different
I didn't even know who I was
tried to be like my classmates

When I was young
I thought I was wrong
I thought I was weird
I felt alone on this earth

When I was young
I was not happy
I was not myself
I felt alone on this earth

People were mean and I got bullied
"You are not good if you are different"
Today I know how wrong they were
I became strong and now see me here

When I was young
I thought I was wrong
I thought I was weird
I felt alone on this earth

When I was young
I was not happy
I was not myself
I felt alone on this earth

But I was never alone

When I got older
I noticed the rainbow
I met people like me
They taught me to be proud

If you are young
and think you are wrong

think you are weird
feeling alone on this earth

If you are young
and are not happy
are not yourself
feeling alone on this earth

You are never alone

You can find the rainbow
Be the proudest one
We all have in common
that we are not the same

I have to tell you important things:
you are wonderful when you are yourself
you are wonderful when you are proud
you are wonderful when you don't hide away

And that's why we need pride
that's why we need the rainbow
