trans rights are human rights


Lyrics:


(verse 1 - Kyoruka)

Every day I see

I don't want to be

So tell me if there's hope to be someone free

It feels like there's something immoral in me


(prechorus)

({} - Pulvite)

([] - Kyoruka)

{Though it might be far away} [far in the future!]

{We'll be okay} [can it come sooner!]

{As long as there's some way} [I hope that there's some way]

To cure it


{Though our safety's compromised} [even inside me!]

{We're still alive} [I know I can be free and]

{And we'll} still burn brighter than any other star in the sky


(chorus - both)

The burning flame inside you see

It burns a name I'd rather be

And to express and dress in a way that's reflecting me


Our bodies filled with golden flares

Shouting our names into the air

Hoping to live a little longer than thirty years


Although there's something on your mind

You know that there's always the time

That's ticking on and on and knows that you've always tried


In this new life so crystalline

It's almost like the stars aligned

In their entropical, paradoxical design


(interlude)

Kyoruka: I wore a skirt at the age of eight in a Walmart changing room..

Pulvite: (laughter)

Kyoruka: ..and my brain has been rotten ever since

Pulvite: Oh my gosh, that's what started it? Nawh that's great

Kyoruka: And, I didn't fully realize it until I was like twelve but.. y'know

Pulvite: Oh wow


(verse 2 - Pulvite)

I've heard of you

And what you go through

So tell me if I have the same feelings too

I've realized in time, I'm not different to you


(prechorus)

([] - Pulvite)

({} - Kyoruka)

{Though we might be far away} [Seeking a new truth]

{We'll be okay} [clearing my mind-view]

{We'll find our own way} [I know we'll do Better]

Together


{Though our safety's compromised} [watching our people]

{We're still alive} [slain by the evil and]

{And we're} still burning bright no matter what the media says


(chorus)

The burning flame inside you see

It burns a name I'd rather be

And to express and dress in a way that's reflecting me


Our bodies filled with golden flares

Shouting our names into the air

Hoping to live a little longer than thirty years


Although there's something on your mind

You know that there's always the time

That's ticking on and on and knows that you've always tried


In this new life so crystalline

It's almost like the stars aligned

In their entropical, paradoxical design


(postchorus / outro - Kyoruka)

Although there's something on your mind

You know that there's always the time

That's ticking on and on and knows that you've always tried


In this new life so crystalline

It's almost like the stars aligned

In their entropical, paradoxical design


You'll find there's something on your mind

That makes your struggle worth the time

To push forward on and on despite all the tears you've cried


You'll find a life worth burning for

A life you've never seen before

I know it's possible, even probable, so long as you keep on

The drop is just amazing!
Awesome song

Pulvite responds:

That's Kyoruka for you! She did most of the work in that department lol, we're happy you like it though :D

Beat was great, and this nails a specific kind of robot voice that I love.

Hearing that that last "on" trying to keep going as it sputtered out makes my heart ache a little.

Pulvite responds:

Thank you! The volume automation on the last "on" was actually a last-second decision haha, I'm glad it payed off :)

Never known this was released here.

Anyway, I fucking love this. Some cool hyperpop and probably one of my favorite songs this year. (oh and happy pride month)

Pulvite responds:

Happy Pride! I'm glad you liked it I think this might be one of my favorite songs I've released ever and I have a feeling it's gonna stay that way for a while :)

just found u today thru retrospect and i'm rlly glad i did

this music is not only so super good, but it's always really cool seeing more transfem musicians :3

happy pride month!

Pulvite responds:

Happy Pride !!!!

This is insanley pretty. I love the lyrics and the sections where you are talking about childhood.

Pulvite responds:

Thank you! <3
Decided to get a little bit personal with this song and showed off how transgender we are lolol
