Welcome back home, TS1-6!

[swiftrosegarden]

the lesson for me personally is that she used every single tool at her disposal to make this happen. it was a path she had to chart herself, and it took years and years of haaaaaaard work in many different channels. and she made it joyful work, inclusive of all the people who were rooting for her, close and far, and she won.

‘he’s got my past frozen behind glass, but i’ve got me’

and now her past is unfrozen and hers to own! and she still has her. the future’s bright, dazzling instead

Can we talk about the John-Matty connection? Because is so darkly fascinating to me. Pretentious dark-haired musicians with a history of making disgusting jokes and inflammatory remarks in interviews (notably regarding pornography / sex and racism), which people excuse because of their talent or because they claim it's some esoteric shock humor that's Super Deep And Critiques Society, You Just Don't Get It. Multiple past partners alleging emotional abuse but because it's non-physical they're able to get away with it. Luring Taylor out of a previous relationship (TL & JA) only to ghost her the second they're finished wining and dining her and call her crazy for expecting more. Lavish praises of Taylor in the media (ppl forget how John spoke of her before/while they were dating) followed by passive-aggressive victim narratives. Taylor jumping into the relationship headfirst and ignoring people's warnings, getting burned, and then feeling embarrassed because how could she have been so blind? The fact that she released Speak Now (TV) AROUND THE SAME TIME she was literally reliving a lot of aspects of that situation??? No wonder she hated that album and kind of abandoned its rollout.

I just went through Speak Now for my favorite lyric project and there are so many parallels with songs on TTPD.

Ours // But Daddy I Love Him:

They’ll judge it like they know about me and you// thinking they can change the beat of my heart when he touches me

And the verdict comes from those who have nothing else to do // all the wine moms are still holding out but fuck ‘em

The jury’s out but my choice is you // and soon the elders had convened, down at the city hall, stay away from her

It’s not theirs to speculate if it’s wrong// I’ll tell you something ‘bout my good name, it’s mine alone to disgrace

I’ll fight their doubt and give you faith // time doesn’t it give some perspective, and no you can’t come to the wedding

Any snide remarks from my father about your tattoos will be ignored // screaming but daddy I love him

Dear John // loml // the smallest man

And I lived in your chess game, but you changed the rules every day // were you writing a book, were you a sleeper cell spy, in fifty years will all this be declassified

Wondering which version of you I might get on the phone tonight// starting at me starry eyed, in your Jehovah’s Witness suit, who the fuck was that guy

Maybe it’s me and my blind optimism to blame, maybe it’s you and your sick game to give love then take it away/ you said I’m the love of your life, about a million times. You shit talked me under the table talking rings and talking cradles

I’ll look back and regret how I ignored when they said run as fast as you can // whose gonna tell me the truth when you swept in with the winds of fate, and told me I reformed you // dancing phantoms on the terrace are they second hand embarrassed

All the girls that you’ve run dry have tired lifeless eyes cause you burned them out. I took your matches before fire could catch me// our field of dreams engulfed in fire, your arson’s match, your somber eyes

The saddest part is that with John she thought she escaped getting burned (she didn’t) but with Matty she felt like he did burn everything down around her.

I think in some ways when Matty felt familiar and comfortable to her but it turned out it was because he was the worst aspects of a lot of her exes and not because he was her twin

Tagging in @wavesoutbeingtossed again because I know she has lots of thoughts on this as well

besties it’s time we talked about cardigan and hoax

the only explicit new york references on folklore (besides tlgad) -> could the part of yourself you left back in new york be that other person, i.e. their heartbeat on the high line?

i knew you’d come back to me/you knew the password so i let you in the door -> they came back but it’s not what you thought it would be :/

on that note, the repeated “i knew” on cardigan and the “you knew” on hoax -> a parallel structure that flips the script from a rosy reflection to a painful study of how the other person hurt you

you drew stars around my scars/you knew it still hurts underneath my scars -> because drawing stars is only a superficial fix that could’ve never fixed a bone-deep hurt

you put me on and said i was your favorite/your faithless love’s the only hoax i believe in -> to “put someone on” is to deceive them (aka a hoax)

the confidence of “i knew everything when i was young” vs. the plea of “give me a reason” because now you’ve grown up and suddenly you aren’t sure of anything you thought to be true anymore

the smell of smoke would hang around this long/my smoking gun

help

My dear friends, I am Heba from Gaza, a mother of three children. Two months ago, my husband left me and traveled away, and before we could feel safe, war broke out and our home was destroyed, leaving me and my children without a provider. Now, we are living in refugee camps and facing harsh and difficult conditions. My children have developed chronic skin diseases that require immediate care and treatment, and as you know, the situation here is extremely difficult. We are in urgent need of your help to provide the necessary medications and basic food supplies. Words cannot express the fear and anxiety I feel and how it is affecting my children in these circumstances. I also aspire to reunite them with their father, so they can be by his side and feel safe and secure. If you can help us, I would be very grateful, as any support can make a difference in our lives. Thank you for your concern and support during these challenging times.♥️
