The Thesis For Every Taylor Swift Album

if someone sent me downtown lights, lovebombed me and wrote songs saying he hasnt stopped thinking about me for the past decade and i got with him in the middle of a career peak and a world tour, millions of eyes watching us, and he left and ghosted me and said “im better off” then got engaged to the girl after me. id be making deals with the devil

twenty years across the sea

happy lover 5th anniversary !! <3

it's going to be so ironical if the theme of the album is what about my art? what about my voice? and all that people do is focus on the person behind the motivation of it. Obviously it's taylor breakup so she's allowed to get personal in every way about it but what happens when the fandom's whole focus is just on Joe and how he fumbled instead of connecting themes and parallels because what about her art now? what about her voice? what about recognising the core thing that makes her her?

Rep TV will get her chance someday, Taylor can't stop her from being bejeweled forever

Taylor using Peter Pan and the story of the boy who wouldn't grow up as a whole motif in her writing for a bit was truly excellent. The actual story of Peter and Wendy is sad especially because I think it is mostly an allegory for lost youth.

it’s so good! and it’s the perfect metaphor because the themes of peter and wendy’s story—waiting forever, growing up (or refusing to), promises that aren’t kept—are all at the heart of ttpd. and even beyond that, i just love the way she talks about youth across ttpd/some of midnights. it’s something that you lose, something you can keep, something that gets taken, something you give, etc.

she finally played it, Rep is complete

everyone who harasses Jaime I am in your fucking walls

she emotionally devastates and then just. swims away. and we let her

you were never mine. you’re my my my my my lover. you kept me like a secret but i kept you like an oath. i’m a mastermind and now you’re mine. you weren’t mine to lose. i pretend you’re mine all the damn time. you are the best thing that’s ever been mine. i remember thinking i had you. i’m just gonna call you mine. everything that’s mine is a landmine. my my my my my my my my my my my my my my my my saying goodbye is death by a thousand cuts. but do you remember?
