My name is Twyla, a sweet boogey-monster

That lives in your dreams

In the library, that's where you'll find me

Reading history

Ooh

I'm not ready to grow up

I just wanna daydream everyday

Ooh

Get lost in the shadows

Yeah, that's where you'll find me

I'm a boogey-monster

That lives in your dreams

Inside your nightmares

That's where I'll be

I been hiding in the dark

But now I'm finally stepping out of the shadows

Of the shadows

I move from the dreamworld

Straight into the real world

Glowing eyes in the dark

What used to scare me

Now gives me power

And sets me apart

(Ahh)

I'm a boogey-monster

That lives in your dreams

Inside your nightmares

That's where I'll be

I been hiding in the dark

But now I'm finally stepping out of the shadows

Of the shadows

A little shy, I'm a little bit sweet

And I can read even when I'm asleep

Yeah, I been hiding in the dark

But now I'm finally stepping out of the shadows

Of the shadows

I've got stories of monsters

That live in my head

People and places I'll never forget

The shadows are dancing, they creep up the walls

But that don't define me at all

Counting dust bunnies

Underneath my bed

I faced all of fears

And turned them into friends

Now I'm ready to grow up

And see what comes next

I'm ready

I'm a boogey-monster

That lives in your dreams

Inside your nightmares

That's where I'll be

I been hiding in the dark

But now I'm finally stepping out of the shadows

Of the shadows

A little shy, I'm a little bit sweet

And I can read even when I'm asleep

Yeah, I been hiding in the dark

But now I'm finally stepping out of the shadows

Of the shadows

Out of the shadows
