I’ve been listening to my friend Antje Duvekot’s new album this week. It’s called New Siberia and it’s amazing (as usual). One of the songs on the album struck me this morning as I was waiting for my bus. The song is called “Glamorous Girls.” It’s not meant to be a trans* song, but there was something about it that spoke to my feelings of alienation as a kid and I wanted to share it with you:
The line: “But you will find a place in the sun. You’ll be shining when the time comes. And if you knew this you wouldn’t trade it for the world; for any of those glamorous girls.” It’s so true.
I wouldn’t trade this life I am currently living for anything in the world.
