Tell us what songs that aren’t explicitly trans resonate with you!

For example, I challenge anyone to listen to Dream Theater’s The Spirit Carries On, imagine it’s your old self singing to you, and tell me you don’t get The Feels (that includes you, boys!). And alright, I admit that album’s pretty borderline, but I hope you get the point.

    I’m not trans myself, but Oberon by Lump always felt like it was a non-trans trans song. Apparently the lyrics are just from various jotted ideas in Laura Marling’s notebook.

    Don’t call me by my old name
    Cruel as you are to bring up old pain
    I tried to play the boys’ game
    Yes, I’m all for change till it takes my name

    It’s also an incredibly beautiful song.
