[corneliaavenue]

reblog and put in the tags a lyric that absolutely cuts you. im so curious to see what makes everyone hurt

[daenerys-targaryen]

I hate how mirrorball, this is me trying and the archer have kind of become running jokes in the fandom considering they’re all about self loathing and anxiety and never feeling good enough.

[maddieschampagneproblems]

in my “this is me trying” era no one speak to me

[vonlipvig]

[falklore]

[genderqueeradrien]

[jeansyvesmoreau]

[that-bitch-kat3]

pouring out my heart to a stranger, but i didn’t pour the whiskey: mary macdonald

[anervousmirrorball]

they told me all of my cages were mental so I got wasted like all my potential. i was so ahead of the curve the curve became a sphere fell behind all my classmates and I ended up here. ive been having a hard time adjusting i had the shiniest wheels now they're rusting. i wake in the night i pace like a ghost the room is on fire invisible smoke. i wander through these nights I prefer hiding in plain sight. no one wanted to play with me as a little kid so ive been scheming like a criminal ever since to make them love me and make it seem effortless. i have this thing where I get older but just never wiser midnights become my afternoons when my depression works the graveyard shift. i never grew up it's getting so old. i cut off my nose just to spite my face then hate my reflection for years and years. i should not be left to my own devices they come with prices and vices I end up in crisis. i stare directly at the sun but never in the mirror. if it's all in my head tell me know tell me ive got it wrong somehow. i searched the party of better bodies just to learn that my dreams aren't rare. i gave my blood sweat and tears for this i hosted parties and starved my body. every single thing I touch becomes sick with sadness. i know my pain is such an imposition. everybody moved on I stayed there dust collected on my pinned up hair. my friends found friends who care. it's me im the problem.

hey hey I wanna know what taylor swift song to you associate with each of the slytherin boys? I've been thinking about it all day because I already have one in mind for all the marauders and I'm interested in what you think

Ciao tesooo!!😽🩷

Mhhhh personally I think I would associate each boy like this:

Mattheo Riddle - my tears ricochet

"And I can go anywhere I want/ Anywhere I want, just not/ home"

pls this is his trauma and I live for it

Lorenzo Berkshire - gold rush

"I don't like that anyone would/ die to feel your touch/ Everybody wants you/ Everybody wonders what it/ would be like to love you"

he is my golden boy and everybody would die for this cinnamon roll, change my mind, you can't.

Theodore Nott - mirrorball

“And I'm still a believer, but I/ don't know why/ I've never been a natural, all I do/ is try, try, try"

Also trauma for his deatheater family and also because I headcanon him to be an introvert, sometimes he has to force himself in situations, and a tad insecure. He is smart, as we established in our headcanons, but he might feel like that he always had to prove himself, he is a natural, but he doesn't feel like it.

Blaise Zabini - Sweet Nothing

"’Causе they said the end is comin'/ Everyone's up to somethin’/ I find myself runnin’ home to your sweet nothings/ Outside, they're push and shovin’/ You're in the kitchen hummin'/ All that you ever wanted from me was nothin'"

I feel like this is about his relationship with his mom/dead father, I know he has mommy issues and he just wants to be loved🥺

Draco Malfoy - Would've, Could've, Should’ve

"And if I was a child, did it/ matter/ If you got to wash your hands?/ Oh, all I used to do was pray/ Would've, could've, should've/ If you'd never my way/ I would've stayed/ On my knees/ And I damn sure never/ would've danced with the devil/ At nineteen"

I know this song is about grooming and also probably one of my favourites, so I know what I am talking about here, but I imagine this song to be applied to the relationship that he had with the deadeaters, voldemort and also his parents. Everybody used him, and he was so young, so naive.

can I add Ominis and Sebastian?🧍‍♀️they are also slytherin boys...OKay I will, just ignore them in case:

Sebastian Sallow - this is me trying

"They told me all of my cages/ were mental/ So I got wasted like all my/ potential/ And my words shoot to kill/ when I'm mad/ I have a lot of regrets about that/ I was so ahead of the curve, the/ curve became a sphere/ Fell behind all my classmates/ and I ended up here/ Pouring out my heart to a/ stranger/ But I didn't pour the whiskey"

Seb is the goddest boy, a brilliant one, that was blinded by the love for his sister. He went too far and lost himself in the darkness during the process. Now, he is just a kid, full of regrets, still tasting the tears for his action and for his failure. Love is indeed a weapon.

Ominis Gaunt - epiphany

"Keep your helmet, keep your/ life, son/ Just a flesh wound, here's your/ rifle/ Crawling up the beaches now/ "Sir, I think he's bleeding out"/ And some things you just can't/ speak about/ With you I serve/ with you I fall down, down/ Watch you breathe in/ watch you breathing out, out"

My poor boy, the purest cinnamon roll ever, what adversity he had to suffer because of his family. The pain they indulged shoot straight back at him.

Sum up: everybody is traumatized except Lorenzo!

Thank you for asking, this was fun!!🩷🩷🥺

[lavoixhumaine]

they told me all of my cages were mental

so I got wasted like all my potential

and my words shoot to kill when I'm mad

i have a lot of regrets about that

i was so ahead of the curve, the curve became a sphere

fell behind on my classmates and I ended up here

pouring out my heart to a stranger

but i didn't pour the whiskey

i just wanted you to know that this is me trying

i just wanted you to know this is me trying

( taylor swift, this is me trying )

[stood-onthecliffside]

burnt out students seeking academic validation when taylor sings "they told me all of my cages were mental so i got wasted like all my potential and my words shoot to kill when i'm mad i have a lot of regrets about that i was so ahead of the curve, the curve became a sphere fell behind on my classmates, and i ended up here"

(Lyrics below)

Mirrorball (Taylor Swift)

I want you to know

I'm a mirrorball

I'll show you every version of yourself tonight

I'll get you out on the floor

Shimmering beautiful

And when I break it's in a million pieces

Hush

When no one is around, my dear

You'll find me on my tallest tiptoes

Spinning in my highest heels, love

Shining just for you

Hush

I know they said the end is near

But I'm still on my tallest tiptoes

Spinning in my highest heels, love

Shining just for you

I want you to know

I'm a mirrorball

I can change everything about me to fit in

You are not like the regulars

The masquerade revelers

Drunk as they watch my shattered edges glisten

Hush

When no one is around, my dear

You'll find me on my tallest tiptoes

Spinning in my highest heels, love

Shining just for you

Hush

I know they said the end is near

But I'm still on my tallest tiptoes

Spinning in my highest heels, love

Shining just for you

And they called off the circus

Burned the disco down

When they sent home the horses

And the rodeo clowns

I'm still on that tightrope

I'm still trying everything to get you laughing at me

I'm still a believer but I don't know why

I've never been a natural

All I do is try, try, try

I'm still on that trapeze

I'm still trying everything

To keep you looking at me

Because I'm a mirrorball

I'm a mirrorball

I'll show you every version of yourself

Tonight

This Is Me Trying (Taylor Swift)

I've been having a hard time adjusting

I had the shiniest wheels, now they're rusting

I didn't know if you'd care if I came back

I have a lot of regrets about that

Pulled the car off the road to the lookout

Could've followed my fears all the way down

And maybe I don't quite know what to say

But I'm here in your doorway

I just wanted you to know

That this is me trying

I just wanted you to know

That this is me trying

They told me all of my cages were mental

So I got wasted like all my potential

And my words shoot to kill when I'm mad

I have a lot of regrets about that

I was so ahead of the curve, the curve became a sphere

Fell behind on my classmates, and I ended up here

Pouring out my heart to a stranger

But I didn't pour the whiskey

I just wanted you to know

That this is me trying

I just wanted you to know

That this is me trying

At least I'm trying

And it's hard to be at a party when I feel like an open wound

It's hard to be anywhere these days when all I want is you

You're a flashback in a film reel on the one screen in my town

And I just wanted you to know

That this is me trying

(And maybe I don't quite know what to say)

I just wanted you to know

That this is me trying

At least I'm trying

[cursed-man-prayers]

taylor swift lyrics i relate to as an autistic person:

I’d give you my sunshine, give you my best; but the rain is always gonna come if you’re standing with me (peace)

Before I learned civility, I used to scream ferociously anytime I wanted (seven)

How did I go from growing up to breaking down? (nothing new)

And my cheeks are growing tired from turning red and faking smiles (nothing new)

I’ve never been a natural, all I do is try, try, try (mirrorball)

I can change everything about me to fit in (mirrorball)

No one wanted to play with me as a little kid, so I’ve been scheming like a criminal ever since, to make them love me and make it seem effortless (mastermind)

Sometimes I feel like everybody is a sexy baby, and I’m a monster on the hill (anti-hero)

I’ve been having a hard time adjusting; I had the shiniest wheels now they’re rusting (this is me trying)

I was so ahead of the curve, the curve became a sphere, fell behind all my classmates and ended up here (this is me trying)

And I cut off my nose just to spite my face, then hate my reflection for years and years (the archer)

I rewind the tape but all it does is pause on the very moment all was lost, sending signals to be double crossed (evermore)

Break my soul in two looking for you, but you’re right here. If I can’t relate to you anymore, then who am I related to? (coney island)

This dorm was once a madhouse, I made a joke, “Well, it’s made for me.” (champagne problems)

I always felt I must look better in the rearview (long story short)

To you, everything’s funny, you’ve got nothing to regret. I’d give all I have, honey, if you could stay like that) (never grow up?)
