“these songs maybe started out being about something that happened to me or in my life, maybe its something that i wrote about a fictional character i created one day when i was bored, but my dream is that when they go into your world, they become about your life” -taylor

you wouldn't be shattered on the floor now, if only you had seen what you know now then

were you standing in the hallway with a big cake, happy birthday did i paint your bluest skies the darkest grey?

fuck you forever

what do you say when tears are streaming down your face in front of everyone you know?

i should've known

and i swear, i'm only cryptic and machiavellian cause i care

stay, and i'll be loving you for quite some time

and i'll still see it until i die you're the loss of my life

i wait by the door like i'm just a kid, use my best colors for your portrait lay the table with the fancy shit and watch you tolerate it

i'm not much for dancing, but for you, i did

dear reader, if it feels like a trap, you're already in one

so dim that spotlight, tell me things like i can't keep my eyes off of you

gleaming, twinkling, eyes like sinking ships on waters so inviting, i almost jump in

excellent fun 'til you get to know her then she runs like it's a race

we might just get away with it the altar is my hips, even if it's a false god

i'll paint the kitchen neon, i'll brighten up the sky i know i'll never get it, there's not a day that i won't try

six weeks of breathing clean air, i still miss the smoke

i've felt a glow like this never before and never since

but i've seen this episode and still loved the show

should i take chances when no one took chances on me?
