the first 3 taylor swift songs you see will describe your 2024

dying at this

when taylor first revealed her desire to “find a place in this world,” i don’t think she could’ve anticipated that, two decades on, she’d be playing that song she penned at just 13 years old to a sold-out crowd at the closing night of her sixth headlining tour — the biggest tour the industry has seen — when her place in this world has, in fact, been found (both personally and professionally). it just makes me very, very emotional, knowing the girl who wrote “i’m alone, on my own, and that’s all i know” has kept going and persevering through it all, even when she’s felt scared and unmoored — see: her saying “i’m sure i related to [a place in this world] when i wrote it, but i think i relate to it more now” in houston last year before she played it on this tour in the wake of her breakup — and just look at where she is now. something tells me her younger self would not only feel so grateful and happy, but also ridiculously proud.

FUCKING HELLO? GOOD MORNING?? MALIA WHAT DOES THIS MEAN??? THIS HAS SENT ME INTO A GLASSHEART SPIRAL OMG

my favorite choice ever at the very end of the black dog is when she whispers the final “screaming”. after literally screaming it the whole song, after she’s gone through all that grief and catharsis, you can hear her voice shake as it barely chokes out the word. And she’s so insistent the entire song that “old habits die screaming” like I will rage against you with my dying breaths! Loss and death and grief have made me angry and vengeful and you will feel the flames of my wrath!!! But in the end, after she goes through all the accusations and the blame and the vitriol and confusion and the cruelty and injustice of it all, she has no more fight left in her. she realizes in real time that this is what grief and letting go actually feels like, the summation of it all at the end. It’s perhaps in conversation with that TS Eliot poem: “This is how the world ends, not with a bang but with a whimper.” The journey through all of that sorrow and pain and grief and loss doesn't end in a blinding magnificent rage and it’s over, as much as she wanted it to, with indignation and vengeful pride. Instead, it’s a long drawn out suffering and when she finally gets to the end of her grief, it has drained everything from her. she may have the last word, but it'll be nothing more than a pitiful whisper.
