Not as good as the Counting Crows song I posted, but a solid #3 behind that one and the David Byrne song posted by the women of many names:
Three Doors Down Let Me Go
One more kiss could be the best thing But one more lie could be the worst And all these thoughts are never resting And you're not something I deserve
In my head there's only you now This world falls on me In this world there's real and make believe And this seems real to me
[ Chorus ] You love me but you don't know who I am I'm torn between this life I lead and where I stand And you love me but you don't know who I am So let me go Let me go
I dream ahead to what I hope for And I turn my back on loving you How can this love be a good thing When I know what I'm goin through
In my head there's only you now This world falls on me In this world there's real and make believe And this seems real to me
[ Chorus ] You love me but you don't know who I am I'm torn between this life I lead and where I stand You love me but you don't know who I am So let me go Just Let me go... Let me go
And no matter how hard I try I can't escape these things inside I know I know When all the pieces fall apart You will be the only one who knows Who knows
[ Chorus ] You love me but you don't know who I am I'm torn between this life I lead and where I stand And you love me but you don't know Who I am So let me go Just let me go
And you love me but you don't You love me but you don't You love me but you don't know who I am And you love me but you don't You love me but you don't You love me but you don't know me

Mahatma Ghandi, though a devout Hindu, was widely known to admire Jesus; Ghandi often quoted from the Sermon on the Mount, in fact. Once when the missionary E. Stanley Jones met with Ghandi he asked him, "Mr. Ghandi, though you quote the words of Christ often, why is that you appear to so adamantly reject becoming his follower?" Ghandi replied, "Oh, I don't reject your Christ. I love your Christ. It's just that so many of you Christians are so unlike your Christ."

Here are a couple:
Androgynous by The Replacements (and covered here by Joan Jett and Paul Westerberg):
Here come Dick, he's wearing a skirt
Here comes Jane, y'know she's sporting a chain
Same hair, revolution
Same build, evolution
Tomorrow who's gonna fuss
And they love each other so
Androgynous
Closer than you know, love each other so
Androgynous
Don't get him wrong and don't get him mad
He might be a father, but he sure ain't a dad
And she don't need advice that'll center her
She's happy with the way she looks
She's happy with her gender
Mirror image, see no damage
See no evil at all
Kewpie dolls and urine stalls
Will be laughed at
The way you're laughed at now
Now, something meets Boy, and something meets Girl
They both look the same
They're overjoyed in this world
Same hair, revolution
Unisex, evolution
Tomorrow who's gonna fuss
And tomorrow Dick is wearing pants
And tomorrow Janie's wearing a dress
Future outcasts and they don't last
And today, the people dress the way that they please
The way they tried to do in the last centuries
I also like Bob Dylan's "Jet Pilot"
Well, she's got Jet Pilot eyes from her hips on down.
All the bombardiers are trying to force her out of town.
She's five feet nine and she carries a monkey wrench.
She weighs more by the foot than she does by the inch.
She got all the downtown boys, all at her command
But you've got to watch her closely 'cause she ain't no woman
She's a man.

This one seems transition appropriate:
David Bowie Changes
Oh yeah Mm Still don't know what I was waiting for And my time was running wild A million dead-end streets and Every time I thought I'd got it made It seemed the taste was not so sweet So I turned myself to face me But Ive never caught a glimpse Of how the others must see the faker Im much too fast to take that test
Ch-ch-ch-ch-changes (turn and face the strain) Ch-ch-changes Don't want to be a richer man Ch-ch-ch-ch-changes (turn and face the strain) Ch-ch-changes Just gonna have to be a different man Time may change me But I can't trace time
I watch the ripples change their size But never leave the stream Of warm impermanence So the days float through my eyes But stil the days seem the same And these children that you spit on As they try to change their worlds Are immune to your consultations They're quite aware of what they're going through
Ch-ch-ch-ch-changes (turn and face the strain) Ch-ch-changes Don't tell them to grow up and out of it Ch-ch-ch-ch-changes (turn and face the strain) Ch-ch-changes Wheres your shame Youve left us up to our necks in it Time may change me But you can't trace time
Strange fascination, fascinating me Ah changes are taking the pace Im going through
Ch-ch-ch-ch-changes (turn and face the strain) Ch-ch-changes Oh, look out you rock n rollers Ch-ch-ch-ch-changes (turn and face the strain) Ch-ch-changes Pretty soon now you're gonna get a little older Time may change me But I can't trace time I said that time may change me But I can't trace time

She gave you everything she had but she was young and dumb
She'd just turned twenty-one
She didn't care to hang around, so when the shit came down
Why, she was nowhere to be found
This life can turn a good girl bad
She was the sweetest thing that you had ever seen
You're such a delicate boy in the hysterical realm of an emotional landslide in physical terms
With your cherry lips and golden curls
You could make grown men gasp when you'd go walking past them in your hot pants and high heels
They could not believe that such a body was for real
It seemed like rainbows would appear, whenever you came near the clouds would disappear
Because you looked just like a girl, your baby blues would flash and suddenly a spell was cast
You're such a delicate boy in the hysterical realm of an emotional landslide in physical terms
You hold a candle in your heart
You shine the light on hidden parts
You make the whole world wanna dance
You bought yourself a second chance
Go baby go, go, we're right behind you
Go baby go, go, yeah we're looking at you
Go baby go, go, ooh we're right behind you
Go baby, go baby, yeah we're right behind you
Go baby, go baby, ooh we're right behind you
Go baby, go baby, yeah we're looking at you
Go baby, go baby, ooh we're right behind you
Go baby, go baby, yeah we're looking at you
You hold a candle in your heart and soul baby, go, go
You shine the light on hidden parts, go baby, go, go
You make the whole world wanna dance and soul baby, go, go
You bought yourself a second chance and go baby, go baby go
Delicate boy
Go baby, go baby go, in the hysterical realm
Go baby, go baby go, of an emotional landslide
Go baby, go baby go, in physical terms
Go baby, go, go, go, yeah we're looking at you
Go Baby, go, go, ooh we're right behind you

The Who Im A Boy
One girl was called Jean Marie Another little girl was Felicity Another little girl was Sally Joy The other was me, and I'm a boy My name is Bill, and I'm a head case They practice making up on my face Yeah, I feel lucky if I get trousers to wear Spend evenings taking hairpins from my hair
I'm a boy, I'm a boy But my ma won't admit it I'm a boy, I'm a boy But if I say I am, I get it
Put your frock on, Jean Marie Plait your hair, Felicity Paint your nails, little Sally Joy Put this wig on, little boy
I'm a boy, I'm a boy But my ma won't admit it I'm a boy, I'm a boy But if I say I am, I get it
Wanna play cricket on the green Ride my bike across the street Cut myself and see my blood Wanna come home all covered in mud
I'm a boy, I'm a boy But my ma won't admit it I'm a boy, I'm a boy But if I say I am, I get it
