Obligatory Trans Angst Song

lyrics

F Dm
Look, I can’t tell you what my plans are,
Bb Bbm
or what I’m going to do,
F Dm
But the very least I’m working on
Bb Bbm
is becoming less like you.

I wanna live life in the fast lane,
Away from any guarantee,
I’m not planning to stray far away
From curiosity.

F A
I want to travel the world,
Dm Bb
See every point of view,
F A
I’m not about to limit myself to a place like this
Bb Bbm
With anyone like you.

I want to live every day,
Seek horizons full of blue,
I’m done with all the judgement that you send my way,
I’m definitely through,
C Bb F
Through with people like you.


“Son, come home for dinner,
We miss you very much,
Have you been acing all your classes,
Drop the gay stuff just a touch.”

I’m not about to let you off the hook
For threatening to sue,
When all we do is live our lives,
Despite what that means to you.

C
I’m sorry that I’m trans, ok,
Bb Bbm
Now I’ve got better things to do.

(Chorus)

Bb A Dm
I guess I understand that you’re frightened for my sake,
Bb A Dm
It’s probably not easy to follow the choices that I make,
Bb Bbm C G
But pushing me away because I choose to not be fake,

Gm C
I think that might be the worst take!
