Why is being transgender so complicated?
(Based on Avril Lavigne's "Complicated", here's a link to the original:

Uh huh, life sucks like this
Uh huh, that’s the way it is.
‘Cause life sucks like this
And that’s the way it is.
(Verse 1:)
Sometimes, wonder what I’m striving for
‘cause I’ve always failed before
But if you could look in me, you might see
I’d like to be myself at last
no more controlled by my past
This is the message I send
tired of having to pretend
(Chorus)
I’m somebody else
around everyone else
I’m watching my back
I can’t relax
act like I’m cool
But who do I fool
But me
Tell me
Why is being transgender so complicated?
havin’ to act like I’m somebody else gets me frustrated
But life’s like this
I fall and I crawl and I break and I take what I get and I turn it to
honesty, I say to thee I can no longer fake it
no, no no
(Verse 2)
You came over unannounced
found me dressed like someone else
Who i am, its more that what you know
Don’t laugh, if I strike a pose
wearing my pretty clothes
tired of fooling everyone
havin’ to become
somebody else
around everyone else
I’m watching my back
I can’t relax
act like I’m cool
But who do I fool
But me
Tell me
(Repeat Chorus)
(Repeat Verse 1)
(Repeat Chorus 2 times)
no, no, no.
