I think I want to write a concept album about an alien female whose consciousness must be transferred to Earth into a human host. As they are a kind and respectful race they choose to inhabit catatonics or other bodies who probably wouldn't mind like the homeless or suicidal. But for her the process goes awry so she ends up inside the body of a man. In doing so she forgets much of her life and identity; except for that lingering knowing that something is misaligned. So, it would be a tale of her having to rediscover who she is while adapting to a new planet and new life in a man's body.
I thought there weren't many science fiction stories out there with a transgender theme, and this would be a great metaphor to explain what it's like for us to those who aren't having this experience. It's a great way to educate people without technical jargon and tiresome explanations. People respond better to art and music than they do direct information.
I also thought the story would be better told in song and lyric than as a novel. Whatever lyrics I come up with I will post here.
