all too well (ten minute version) - taylor swift

at first i thought “i see you every day now” in maroon was meant to convey how close she was to this person and how spending time together had become routine, but now i’m thinking about a layered double meaning giving “i thought i saw you at the bus stop, i didn't though” and “chasing' shadows in the grocery line” vibes like she’s haunted by him and his memory every day now, which is very “moving on from him is impossible when i still see it all in my head” and truly is the red/maroon parallel track two of it all

Autumn seemed to arrive suddenly that year. The morning of the first September was crisp and golden as an apple.

the fact taylor swift wrote the lyric “they still tell the legend of how you disappeared” in 2012 and five years later wrote a poem titled “why she disappeared” based on a magazine headline written about her leaving the public eye in an effort to have some peace will forever haunt me. there’s something inherently tragic about the concept of celebrity and how predictably both the media and the public treat those who fall into that category.

no but evermore as a concept of healing is my favorite thing ever.....like she released a gentler companion to the album that talks about bleeding scars and rage and hurt and regret and betrayal and it's so 🥺 🥺 thinking about cardigan and willow being the lead singles where the first one tells you that folklore is all about heartbreak and chasing ghosts but then willow is an assurance that evermore is about finding someone who is real and letting your faith in them guide you through your life.......hoax literally being the saddest song to conclude folklore with but evermore.mp3 still mentioning a positive influence somebody can have on you even when you're buried neck deep in negativity (in the cracks of light i dreamed of you) like hoax is endless hurt and a desperation to cling to someone for security but evermore.mp3 offers hope and acknowledges the fact that she did cling to someone for support and they made it out together.......evermore being representative of 'long story short i survived' when preceded by folklore is the prettiest happy ending i could hope for <3

August slipped away into a moment in time.

Sweet tea in the summer Cross your heart, won’t tell no other And though I can’t recall your face I still got love for you Your braids like a pattern Love you to the moon and to Saturn Passed down like folk songs The love lasts so long
