the "home is where the heart is" from london boy and "little did you know your home's really only a town you're just a guest in" from florida really sums up everything. got your point taylor

#why would you do this op #text post #taylor #tortured poets

I don’t have enough brain cells to understand who/what fortnight is about… the neighbor and husband references?

okay, so like taylor said, fortnight is sort of a prologue to the entire album. it references a lot of other songs (down bad, florida!!!, peter, guilty as sin?) there are a few different ways that it could be read, and i may not stick to this interpretation, but the below is where i landed.

fortnight sets the scene for the entire album and the events that are about to unfold by telling a story about an alternate reality about the future she was headed to in which she and joe ignore their problems, stay together, and build the life they're planning. she's in need of psychiatric help, she's drinking, she's depressed. but the other guy has re-entered her orbit. they're going to keep crossing paths. she feels insane. he's right there. she is insane. her husband cheats on her; she's enraged at him. the other guy is married to someone great; she's enraged at her too. she feels insane. she is insane, because she's fully consumed with the anger of following the bad path instead of taking the risk.

so at the end of the song, she decides she has to run for it. she has to move to america. she has to go to florida and start over. she has to buy the car and let him touch her instead of just daydreaming about it. because if she doesn't scratch the itch, if she doesn't see what happens, if she doesn't chase the guy that's been her "what else?" then well, how will she ever know? and the rest of the record is her realizing that maybe she wishes she hadn't.

the beauty of this album is that it really fully encapsulates what it’s like going from the devastating loss of a long term relationship, to the rebound you think is gonna fix it all, only to ultimately realize that you were using the latter to process your feelings about the former. the songs are so muddled, and the lyrics are relevant to both muses because her feelings were muddled and she had no idea where to put them or what to do with them. the rebound promised her everything she couldn’t get from the ex-love and she fell for it because she was so desperate to be really seen.

#yes. #and it’s so interesting how she writes some of these songs #you can see the lines between the two relationships become blurred in songs like down bad and loml #taylor #tortured poets #text post

that post thats like taylor swift is for people who have never gotten over anything in their lives ever is so true because tortured poets is really like well okay yeah fuck joe but really fuck matty oh also fuck you kim kardashian and while we're here fuck jake gyllenhaal too

#no that’s legitimately what makes her so relatable #i never leave well enough alone!!! i bury hatches but i keep maps of where i put them!!! #like no i will not stop bringing this up this thing that deeply hurt me #even if the entire world keeps asking why I’m still bringing it up #text post #tortured poets #taylor

album prologue!! i think u should read this to understand the album better

#yes!! #i read it before listening and was very confused #after listening it makes perfect sense #taylor #tortured poets

[yukisomas]

did taylor swift drop an absolutely devastating two hour album in the middle of the night with nearly no warning? you might be entitled to financial compensation.

#ABSOLUTELY!! DEVASTATING!!! #tortured poets #text post #taylor

“watched me disappearing daily for just one glimpse of his smile” that woman fucking loved him

#i was listening to rep and lover a lot the past week and i’m just so fucked up #by how sad and devastating the deterioration of that relationship was for her #like joe clearly struggles with depression and that’s not something that you can just get over #but it ended up being too heavy of a weight for her #and his other issues of not committing #just having a lot of thoughts #text post #tortured poets #stfu josie #taylor

one thing i love about taylor is how much she loves to challenge people. it would’ve been so easy for her to use the height of her popularity to go further and put out the most palatable, accessible album of all time. instead, she swings for the fences.

#now that the brain cells are brain-celling it’s actually absolutely WILD that she’s done this #taylor #tortured poets #text post

[yukisomas]

she literally thought she found her soulmate her husband the father of her children and he promised her that and said he felt the same and then just didn't show up for it!!!!

AND THEN THE FUCK OF IT ALL IS THAT SOMEONE ELSE WITH THE SAME FUCKING PROBLEMS DID THE SAME FUCKING THING
