Bonus if you share the songs in the tags!

Mine were out of the woods, fifteen, WCS, and mine and I would now die for any of those songs

Charles and max, the childhood rivals, two demons have grown so much over the years. Charles used to push max off the tracks, he had the eyes that will instantly tell you there's too much rebel and mischief behind it. Now when i look at grown charles, he looks so soft to me. He is so mature about situations. Same for max. I was so proud of him yesterday when he said “shit happens” with a smile after his dnf. Back in the days we would have probably seen some different reactions. Charles and max continue to grow as a person together, at the same time. It's so fascinating to me because every single thing about them is so connected. A single thread of gold tied them to each other.

all of the girls you loved before is definitely the prequel to invisible string because

“your past and mine are parallel lines, stars all aligned, they intertwined…”

to form an “invisible string…tying you to me.”

Thinking about “One single thread of gold tied me to you” vs. “In another life, you still would've turned my head” and invisible string and Timeless’ different takes on soulmate-ism and how much I prefer the latter’s version. It’s not that fate is pulling us towards each other, it’s us who are pushing ourselves together. We’re not together because the universe decided we would be, we’re together because we’re so uniquely suited for each other that there’s no scenario in which we wouldn’t end up by the other’s side. Timing didn’t make us soulmates, being perfect for each other did.

have I mentioned lately how much "one single thread of gold" sends me because of the implications? 🙃

the thing about "invisible string" that everyone has pointed out is that it's not that they were actually fated to be together, it's that there are all these things in their past that made them who they are and where they are, and the love they share is so special to them that it feels like it could have been written in the stars. (But the whole thing is that, everything about them is so ordinary and a series of happenstance. But love makes everything feel magical even when it is the most normal thing.)

So throughout the song she's musing about the imaginary, invisible string that ties them together, a metaphor about all the decisions they've made along the way that led to them meeting, until the bridge which ends with, "one single thread of gold tied me to you," the only instance of something tangible between them binding them, representing their love (and commitment).

It's interesting that she's used gold a lot in her music to refer to love (and specifically with him), but the "one single thread of gold tying me to you" has always seemed so sweet to me, yet also had such... important implications. (I know I'm talking around it lol) It's just a lovely way to end the song, "look at all these random occurrences in our lives that made us the people we are and now we've built something permanent together."

anyway I will never shut up about this song even if it's now dead in a ditch and listening to folklore was a great idea today instead of working!
