about

For all my trans siblings, and the people that love them.

It's a heavy time of year. This song doesn't look away from that, not for a second.

It looks you right in the eye and says, "But _you_ are alive!"

Take this song, learn it, share it, download it. Let it add a little light.

lyrics

Four In May
(and two so far in June)

How glad I am am to be alive
On this morning
How glad I am to be alive
On this day O...
The wind's a-blowin and the sun is shining
And there's trouble growing but I don't mind
And I am easy-o

How glad I am am to be alive
On this morning
How glad I am to be alive
On this day O...
Summer's coming with guns a-blazing
And the well's run dry and it ain't worth saving
And I am easy-o

How glad I am am to be alive
On this morning
How glad I am to be alive
On this day O...
Oh the birds are singing
And there's a bell a-ringing
And the neighbors talking and they're all out walking
And I am easy-o

How glad I am am to be alive
On this morning
How glad I am to be alive
On this day O...
My friends and I Know a girl that died
But I'm alive
Yeah, I'm alive!
And I am easy
Yes.
I am easy-o
