Fuckmylife666 - Against Me!

Fuckmylife666 - Against Me!
2:56
Transgender Dysphoria Blues, 2014
Written by Laura Jane Grace

Addressed to Grace's then-wife, this song deals with the heartbreaking, terrifying prospect of becoming who you believed you were always meant to be, even when that means you're now someone your spouse isn't necessarily in love with.  "All things made to be destroyed / All moments meant to pass."  It didn't work out for Grace, which adds a layer of pathos in retrospect.  Soaring, blistering punk rock.
