Transgender Dysphoria Blues

Your tells are so obvious
shoulders too broad ......
keeps you reminded
helps you remember where you come from

You want them to notice
like something in your summer dress
you want them to see you like they see every other girl


SO SAD.

but SO GOOD.

I thought I heard the word "faggot" somewhere but I'm not 100% sure.

Your tells are so obvious.
Shoulders too broad for a girl.
Keeps you reminded.
Helps you remember where you come from.

You want them to notice
the ragged ends of your summer dress (?)
You want them to see you like they see every other girl.
They just see a faggot.

????????????

You've got no cunt in your struts.
You've got no hips to shake.
You know it's obvious, but we can't choose how we're made.

That's what I can make out.

You know it's obvious, but we can't choose how we're made.

I LOVE that line.

Something about riding a bus all day long.

This song is from those two shitty quality sound check recordings we have from last year ( i think sounds similar)

It definitely is the same song as "Just go On Going:"

Yeah it's that song definitely.

[something about holding breath and check?]
Bus stop/washed up/lost up on the coast, oh, we should do this thing/go to spend the whole day long. With you.
You've got no cunt in your struts.
You've got no hips to shake.
You know it's obvious but we can't choose how/who we're made.

I love this song.

They hold their breath (so) not to catch the sick ???

Whole day alone?

? on the coast, I wish we could've spent the whole day alone.

Totally crying.

I cant wait to hear a full band version of this. Also, I was listening to "The Loft" on XM yesterday, they played tom gabel live at the revival tour. They only played Anna, and I couldn't tell who exactly was backing him up on the song, but it sounded awesome.

They just see a faggot. go home guilt ridden and dress up as a chick???? (a word or two may be missing i cant tell)

(not 100% correct probably more like 90% wrong lol)

I think this song means Tom has Transgender Dysphoria Blues..

I feel like its about the day Tom spent with January Hunt, rather than about Laura.

The full-band version, at least in the soundcheck last May, had a little funky guitar riff after the chorus and a mini drum solo before the next verse. Hope it stays in and that we get an announcement before tour in ten days or so.

This is a very sad song.

Rail stop on the coast. We should do this thing the whole day long with you.

Laura just tweeted
"Rough Surf on the coast, wish I could have spent the whole day alone with you"
Finally!

I asked her about those lyrics and she was kind enough to respond.
