Glass: according to the footage here, you shook the vending machine until the shake alarm went off, and then you proceeded to punch the glass and break it. Clef: I was hungry.

ivy - Taylor Swift

[taylorswiftdebut]

no it’s literally it’s just it’s “loved slipped beyond your reaches and i couldn’t give a reason” and “there’s an ache in you put there by the ache in me” and “if it’s all in my head tell me now” and “sorry, i can’t see facts through all of my fury” and “im sorry for not making you my centerfold” and “sorry for not winning you an arcade ring” and “i should’ve asked you questions i should’ve asked you how to be” and “it wasn’t right the way it all went down looks like you know that now” and “i replay my footsteps on each stepping stone, trying to find the one where i went wrong” and “but if you ever think you got it wrong” and “you know when it’s time to go” it’s all so 😵‍💫

willow and this is me trying ARE PART OF THE FOLKLORE LOVE TRIANGLE

I have no idea why I've never seen anyone else say this when there's so much evidence. I'll start with willow, which to me is so clearly from the perspective of august in a scenario where James gets back with her instead.

"Wherever you stray I follow. I'm begging for you to take my hand, wreck my plans" sounds exactly like "cancel plans just in case you'd call and say 'meet me behind the mall'" in august

"Head on the pillow, I could feel you sneaking in", "Wait for the signal and I'll meet you after dark" willow details a secret relationship, just like the relationship in august.

"Like you were a trophy or a champion ring, there was one prize I'd cheat to win" August and James were literally cheating (no shade to August, of course)

"I never would've known from the look on your face, lost in your current like a priceless... wine" The correct rhyme would have been face, and I've always noticed how jarring the word 'wine' is in the song. I think this is intentional, to reference the line "august sipped away like a bottle of wine" that's repeated in the song august. That same line also emphasizes the uncertainty and confusion of the relationship in august.

"You know that my train could take you home, anywhere else is hollow" In the song cardigan, Betty sings about James "stepping on the last train", a.k.a. choosing August over her, and in this song, the narrator's relationship with her muse is also compared to a train taking their muse away.

"Life was a willow and it bent right to your wind, they count me out time and time again... but I come back stronger than a 90s trend" No-one except August took this relationship seriously initially, with James calling it a "summer thing", and Betty saying she knew it wouldn't last. Despite this, the song shows that James did get back together with August eventually.

As for this is me trying, the song is obviously from James' perspective while on their way to apologize to Betty, with the bridge from Betty's perspective:

"It's hard to be at a party when I feel like an open wound" This line (in the bridge) is from Betty's perspective, and James goes to Betty's PARTY to apologize. Betty also compared her pain to an open wound in cardigan, "you drew stars around my scars, but now I'm bleeding", "marked me like a bloodstain"

"I didn't know if you'd care if I came back, I have a lot of regrets about that" The speaker in the first verse is someone returning to someone they left, with a lot of regrets, just like in Betty

"Maybe I don't know quite what to say, but I'm here in your doorway, and I just wanted you to know that this is me trying" We know James apologizes at Betty's door, "I'm here on your doorstep" and is confused about how to save the relationship, "I don't know anything, but I know I miss you".

"Fell behind all my classmates and I ended up here" Though I do feel that this second verse could be from the perspective of a third person (August? Inez? Who knows), it does establish a school setting, quite possibly a high school setting.

"It's hard to be anywhere these days when all I want is you" Also from the bridge (a.k.a. Betty's perspective), and we know that Betty wanted James back, and took them back, because she was in so much pain over James leaving.

Like, it's so obvious???

I hope this gets to the swifties in tumblr.

Can we talk about how MELANCHOLIC Taylor’s lyrics are when you listen to them for above… and then you ANALYZE the words, phrasing and metaphors and it’s literally even more GUT WRECKING?????

Also it’s 4 years since we got the folklore long pond studio session and not to sound like a stuck record but evermore when??? because on december 17th 2020, aaron dessner (father of evermore and beloved sad girl ally) posted a picture of long pond studio in the snow and since that day I have not known rest for waiting (he left me no choice but to stay here forever) so….I will ask again. evermore when?

​i find it especially funny when pretentious folkmore stans hate on ttpd with the criticism that she was “making better music when she was singing about fictional people”… for the better part of the album she is doing the exact same thing she has done on folkmore, fictionalizing her lived experiences. there is even one continuous storyline running through certain songs in a similar vein to dorothea-ttds & august-cardigan-betty, you just have to actually pay attention and look beyond your myopic attempts at paternity testing. neither was folkmore her first attempt at straying away from her usual direct diaristic songwriting in favor of “fictionalized” storylines that still took inspiration from her own life and feelings. speak now opens with her singing about being worried about paying the bills

Everybody moved on (Travis) but I'm still at the restaurant (I miss Joe) (I miss when news about Taylor were actually about Taylor and not her relationship) (I miss not seeing a man every time I search Taylor) (You know I love a London Boy I enjoy nights in Brixton, shoreditch in the afternoon) (I love her but she went from Cornelia Street to moving on faster than my ex, I feel you Joe)
