    Frank Turner // Miranda // Lyrics
    My father is called Miranda these days.
    She’s a proud transgender woman, and my resentment has started to fade,
    Because it was never about who she was, just the way that he behaved.
    And now my father is Miranda and we’re OK.
    In all the years we were estranged,
    I was always hoping that you would find a way to change.
    And after everything that we’ve been through,
    Miranda, it’s lovely to meet you.
    When I was young he always seemed so filled with rage;
    He was angry at my clothes, my hair, my music, my teenage.
    But one sunny afternoon, she was dancing next to me on stage.
    I felt my anger drain away from inside my rib cage.
    The problem with carrying hate
    For someone who doesn’t know,
    Is you’re the only one carrying the weight.
    Best to just let it go,
    And get to know you for who you are -
    Who you really are,
    And who you’ve always been.
    In all the years that we have left,
    Let’s be our best selves, and let’s be friends.
    I’ll be me, promise me that you’ll be you.
    Oh Miranda, it’s lovely to meet you.

    Just saw you play through illness in Toronto, Frank. Love you for that. Love you even more for this song and the story behind it. Reconciliation is a tough road, but it is possible with an open mind and the ability to let go. For both sides. More people need to hear the Miranda message.

      It's not a sample, but it's a pentatonic riff, so you've surely heard something like it before.

      He's been doing songs about mental health and other heavy topics and this is what gets you ? It's about acceptance. I'm trans. There's barely any songs like this. I'm thankful for it.

      honestly the fact people like you exist makes me really sad. just knowing you're not going to see the same beautiful side of the community that i do i kind of heart breaking, y'know? you can't just slow down, take a breathe and actually look at the communities and people you judge. you hear things about groomers and all sorts of awful things about the community, but do you ever actually listen and critically think about what's being said? or do you damn people to being an outcast because of rumours created by twisting and warping stories and tales? when did we stop talking to the individual and start screaming at the collective? i really urge you to just talk to some trans people and hear their experiences, try to understand their point of view and who they are and their intent rather than just going around and shutting down anything you don't agree with. there's no point in being hateful, it gets us all nowhere.

      Wow I'm gonna ask a question? Are you alright sounds like you may need some help with your mental health to hear someone so hateful and closed minded is concerning to me about you because hate is a deep rooted insecurity you have in yourself and inshallah you get better and you seek the help you quite clearly need ive known 3 trans people in my life 2 of which stabbed me in the back and really hurt me and I am still supportive of the transition community and you most likely have never had any experience with any trans people and yet you've got so much hate in your heart for them may Allah guide you back to good mental health
