In honour of THE TORTURED POETS DEPARTMENT (TTPD) coming out tomorrow, here I compiled my favorite lyrics that are close to my heart from Taylor Swift songs: The Eras Tour Setlist version. I just had to do this before we move on to the black-and-white, break up album; TTPD :')
“If I was out flashing my dollars, I'd be a bitch not a baller. They paint me out to be bad, So it's okay that I'm mad” – The Man
“All's well that ends well to end up with you” – Lover
“In this moment now capture it, remember it” – Fearless
“I should've asked you questions. I should've asked you how to be. Asked you to write it down for me. Should've kept every grocery store receipt cause every scrap of you would be taken from me” – marjorie
“But you'll find the real thing instead. She'll patch up your tapestry that I shred” – champagne problems
“I made you my temple, my mural, my sky. Now I'm begging for footnotes in the story of your life” – tolerate it
“You must like me for me” – Delicate
“For you, I would cross the line. I would waste my time” – Don’t Blame Me
“But I got smarter, I got harder in the nick of time. Honey, I rose up from the dead, I do it all the time” – Look What You Made Me Do
“Long live all the mountains we moved. I had the time of my life fighting dragons with you” – Long Live
“And did the twin flame bruise paint you blue? Just between us, did the love affair maim you too? Cause in this city's barren cold. I still remember the first fall of snow and how it glistened as it fell. I remember it all too well” – All Too Well
“I persist and resist the temptation to ask you. If one thing had been different would everything be different today?” – the 1
“Who knows, if I never showed up, what could've been. There goes the loudest woman this town has ever seen. I had a marvelous time ruining everything” - the last great american dynasty
“Back when we were still changing for the better. Wanting was enough. For me, it was enough. To live for the hope of it all. Cancel plans just in case you'd call” – august
“And you know damn well. For you, I would ruin myself. A million little times” – illicit affairs
“I didn't have it in myself to go with grace. Cause when I'd fight, you used to tell me I was brave” – my tears ricochet
“And when we go crashing down, we come back every time” – Style
“Cause darling, I'm a nightmare dressed like a daydream” – Blank Space
“Someday when you leave me. I bet these memories follow you around” – Wildest Dream
“And time can heal, but this won't. So if you come in my way, just don't” – Bad Blood
“And by morning, gone was any trace of you, I think I am finally clean” - Clean
“I don't start it, but I can tell you how it ends. Don't get sad, get even” – Vigilante Shit
“Baby boy, I think I've been too good of a girl. Did all the extra credit, then got graded on a curve. I think it's time to teach some lessons” – Bejeweled
“And the touch of a hand lit the fuse. Of a chain reaction of countermoves. To assess the equation of you. Checkmate, I couldn't lose” – Mastermind
“Karma's gonna track you down. Step by step, from town to town. Sweet like justice, karma is a queen. Karma takes all my friends to the summit” – Karma
