this is me trying - taylor swift
anti-hero is the saddest song in the world set to a fuckass synth like. what do you mean you think you're the villain of every situation you're in and everyone will eventually leave you and even your best traits are just a front to spin more people into your web and you're convinced your own family will kill you for your money and—
evermore is such an insane album when you really think about it. like. love isn't forever. friendship isn't forever. trust isn't forever. family isn't forever. even a marriage isn't forever. but then she ends on evermore (song) and it's like: you know what else isn't forever? pain. suffering. heartache. she just flips the script of the entire album on the LAST SONG and cements the complexity of its core message in 5 minutes. and i'm supposed to be normal about that
Hold on to the memories, they will hold on to you.
I think people on here make judgements far too quickly on new art. let it sink in, let it breathe! not everything is immediately gonna tick all of your boxes, nor should it. that doesn’t mean there’s nothing worthwhile there
“Look at you, worrying so much about things you can’t change. You’ll spend your whole life singing the blues if you keep thinking that way”
so much of the Swiftie Discourse would be resolved if some of y’all could come to terms with the following facts:
a) taylor swift is a human being
b) it is genuinely okay to like both the music AND the person creating said music. constantly looking for evidence that the person behind the music is a bad person is just weird. either like her and the music, or just the music; actively searching for reasons that she’s not who she says she is is fucking odd
Sorry I hate the narrative that being a Swiftie is a curse or just something that happened. I love loving Taylor Swift and I actively choose to listen to her music and connect with people in the fandom because it makes me happy.
