I'm not sure you can get closer!  I've had this stuck in my head for weeks now with the Muppet replaced with woman. 

[NashySlashy]

This is Home by Cavetown is, from what I've been told, the anthem for trans men. I just heard it the other day.

This thread's been on my mind for awhile, been wanting to keep it alive:

 

Super early-era Ministry:

 

 

"They say 'Why are you dressed like it's Halloween,

You look so absurd, you look so obscene.'

...

Oh!

...

Why can't I live a life for me?

Why should I take the abuse that's served?

Why can't they see they're just like me?

I'm not the one that's so absurd.

...

It's the same, it's the same in the whole wide world."

 

 

"I haven't always been this way, I wasn't born a renegade.

I felt alone, still feel afraid, I stumble through it anyway.

I wish someone would've told me that this life is ours to choose,

No one's handing you the keys or a book with all the rules.

 

The little that I know I'll tell you.

When they dress you up in lies,

and you're left naked with the truth,

 

You throw your head back and you spit in the wind,

Let the walls crack, cause it let's the light in.

 

Let 'em drag you through hell,

they can't tell you to change who you are.

 

That's all I know so far."
