Commerce City (from "Lighthouse: An Immersive Drinking Musical")

Back in Commerce City I was too scared to come out Just a different girl That every classmate loved to laugh about But then they all got pregnant. Now they're grandmas at 35 So I'm the person laughing now I'm here and queer and thriving In this wonderful city that I dreamed I'd be a part of Where queer girls straight from Commerce catch a break I'm the one who got out So then why do i doubt Every feeling, every move I ever make? Back in Commerce City Every party, every dance (hoo, pa!) I was always in the corner watching everyone romance But I'd clutch my lonely Guinness And say one day that'd be me Smooching someone hot and smart and sweet Who makes me proud to be In this wonderful city That I dreamed I'd be a part of Where every lonely Guinness meets another by their side I'm where I'm meant to be So then why when i see her Do I feel like I need to run and hide? Hey kids from Texas, Kansas too In New York there's a place for you Every weirdo, every freak come through But hey kids from everywhere you'll see Just coming to New York won't mean You're free from every insecurity That plagued you back home In Commerce City I'm in this big perfect city That I dreamed I'd be a part of Where queer girls straight from Commerce catch a break I'm the one who got out So then why do I doubt When I see her, there's way too much at stake? No! I'm here and I'm out No more fear no more doubt I've got one shot and it's one I'm gonna take
