Your transition theme song

[Bari Jo]

here's another one that speaks to me.  It's by Storm Large.  A lot of her songs speak to me, but this one especially in transition.



Storm Large
Call Me Crazy

Call me crazy
Because I am
And alive
I'm alive
That's the way I
Turn a nose dive into flight

Call me psycho
Cause I am
And also alive
Thank God I'm alive
I make music
Out of the voices
In my mind

And its crazy
Helps me to see
This as funny
Helps me feel rich
With no money Honeypie
Then my brain calls
Over and over and on now
Can't get away from the shadow land of mine

Call me later
Just to see
See that I got home alive
And I am alright
I'm just kidding
You know me
I'll be fine
Its just that crazy helped
Makes me feel great without money honeypie
Then my brians
Call me crazy because I am. Thank god I'm alive

This one does it for me:

The spy who came in from the cold in the War Between the Sexes.

there has been a lifelong deal of uncertainty with me, but now it's become less of an 'am i trans' to 'when will I transition?'

Im scared, I admit that. I have family and social pressure to deal with. But as the song says, this life is mine

[Daisy Jane]

New song added to my transition soundtrack. Tool - Forty-six & 2:

Join in my
Join in my child
and listen ...
Digging through
My old numb shadow

My shadow's
Shedding skin
and I've been picking
scabs again.
I'm down
digging through
my old muscles
for a clue.
I've been crawling on my belly
clearing out what could've been.
I've been wallowing in my own confused
and insecure delusions
for a piece to cross me over
or a word to guide me in.
I wanna feel the changes coming down.
I wanna know what I've been hiding
in (my shadow. 2x)
Change is coming through my shadow.
My shadow's
shedding skin.
I've been picking
my scabs again.

Join in my
Join in my child,
my shadow moves,
closer to me

I've been crawling on my belly
clearing out what could've been
I've been wallowing in my own chaotic,
insecure delusions.
I wanna feel the change consume me,
feel the outside turning in.
I wanna feel the metamorphosis and
cleansing I've endured in,
(my shadow. 2x)
Change is coming.
Now is my time.
Listen to my muscle memory.
Contemplate what I've been clinging to.
Forty-six and two ahead of me.

I,
choose to live and to,
grow,
take and give and to,
move,
learn and love and to,
cry,
kill and die and to,
be,
paranoid and to,
lie,
hate and fear and to,
do,
what it takes to move through.

I choose to live and to,
lie,
kill and give and to,
die,
learn and love and to,
do,
what it takes to step through.

See my shadow changing,
stretching up and over me
soften this old armor.
Hoping I can clear the way by
stepping through my shadow,
coming out the other side.
Step into the shadow.
Forty six and two
are just ahead of me.

[Bari Jo]

Good lyrics on that choice Daisy Jane.

Here is another by Storm Large.  This one expresses my fear of coming out and fighting the trans beast.  It
is probably the same for a lot of us.

There's a verse in this one of "They'll throw you away if you go all the way."  it still gets me choked up.

[Shy]

I came out to myself listening to this one night. I cried, I danced, I shouted, I swore, I curled into a ball, I trembled, I hated the world, I loved the world, I finally surrendered and Sadie popped out  



Peace and love and all that good stuff,

Sadie

My first, as a child, was 'Imaginary Worlds' by Danny O'Connor.

Then came 'Victory' by Patti Smith.

For recent songs, maybe 'Stressed Out' by 21 Pilots.
