This is great! I interpreted this song in a very similar way. I think it’s directed at Scooter and she’s quoting many of the things she’s been told over the course of her career, maybe from her label—like how she should be careful when she’s out in public w her gf bc it could ruin her career—and she’s basically turning it around and warning him that now HE’S the one who needs to be careful w his secrets or else it could ruin his career. She tells him “cross your (thoughtless) heart” and the second part of the saying “hope to die” is implied which sounds very much like a threat in this context.

Remember last yr when there were all those articles that were released saying that a lot of really bad news was gonna come out abt Scooter soon, he was gonna leave management, and a bunch of his clients left at the same time? And then after all that it was just….silent. I think this is what the 3rd verse is referring to. I think it’s possible Taylor was the one who planted those articles and started those rumors and then pulled the plug on it and told the news outlets to stop -> “Devils that you know (Taylor and company) raise worse hell than a stranger, She's the death you chose, You're in terrible danger.” (x)(x)(x)

I think it’s possible many of these rumors weren’t even true but many ppl believed them regardless bc no one likes Scooter and everyone is praying for his demise -> “Wise men once read fake news and they believed it, Jackals raised their hackles, You couldn't conceive it, You were sleeping soundly when they dragged you from your bed and I tried to warn you about them.” So now Taylor can use this to her advantage to prevent him from trying anything funny so that she won’t have any obstacles in the way of her coming out this time.

The 2nd 🎃 message uses the same exact parachute metaphor to describe how Taylor had to pump the breaks on her 2019 coming out bc she didn’t feel adequately prepared to come out and probably knew there was a good chance her masters would be sold (and they were) (I explain this in more detail along w the wild wind/seed metaphor in this post). I think the parachute metaphor—which is abt pulling the plug on sth in order to save one’s reputation—is being used in a similar way in this song; plus it relates to the mastersheist which Scooter was a part of so it adds up. Taylor swept in and, like a parachute, saved him by putting a stop to the rumors -> “So I crossed my thoughtless heart, Spread my wings like a parachute, I'm the albatross, I swept in at the rescue.” BUT she can rain hellfire down on him at any moment so now he’s just waiting for the other shoe to drop -> “The devil that you know looks now more like an angel, I'm the life you chose and all this terrible danger.” She’s telling him that he’s the one who started this so the only one he has to blame is himself. I really love the creepy eery instrumentation which sounds like sth out of a horror movie lol. It really adds to the vibe that she’s a ghost that’s coming back from the dead to haunt him. I think it’s possible she stopped the rumors bc she’s waiting for the right opportunity and timing to destroy him.

Many of the things she says in this song are reminiscent of Karma: “It’s coming back around, And I keep my side of the street clean, You wouldn't know what I mean…Karma's a relaxing thought, Aren't you envious that for you it's not?…'Cause karma is the thunder, Rattling your ground, Karma's on your scent like a bounty hunter, Karma's gonna track you down, Step by step, from town to town”

This is just how I interpreted it, I could be wrong. And maybe she actually does have dirt on him or sth and there are some actual unsavory revelations that are gonna be revealed. I guess we’ll just have to wait and see.

The Albatross decoded

(as requested by @asteracaea's anon, just wanted this for my records too. I hope you see it)

It starts with 'Wise men once said' so immediately we know it's some old white men wisdom, so probably some BS... "Wild winds are death to the candle" isn't a saying I've heard before but English is also not my first language. I'd take it to mean a wild unruly person will destroy something delicate and fragile, just like a strong wind will blow out a candle. As warnings are being issued here, I assume that they are warning the person about this woman because she's known for being a 'wild wind'. The warning then continues into the 'Rose by any other name...' line. Just to make it perfectly clear that it's the MEN who are saying it's a scandal, not Taylor. Taylor knows it's a rose. At least twice on this album does she refer to kissgate as a scandal and with such venom that I'm very sure that that's what the old white men at her label told her it was at the time. And she's still angry about it (as she should!).

In the chorus we have "Cross your thoughtless heart/ Only liquor anoints you" Crossing your heart means you're making a promise to tell the truth, similar to a pledge or a pinky promise. And adding 'thoughtless' would imply she wants the other person to make this promise without any fear or consideration of the possible consequences. So, basically, "promise me something sincerely without thinking too much about it". Only liquor anoints you - Anointment is part of religious ceremonies and is usually done with holy oil to either improve someone's health or make them a saint. It's also done when kings and queens are crowned and I think that's the meaning here. The other person is being raised up to be a monarch or a saint, but with alcohol instead of holy oil. Personally, these two lines convinced me that Taylor is talking to her lover here, because asking for a sincerely promise, almost like a vow, and in return making the other person your king/queen is all very soft and romantic. Very 'King of my heart'. 😉 (and note that she's not saying I'M here to destroy you, she saying OTHER people will tell you that I'm going to destroy you)

In the second verse we're back to what the 'wise men' are saying and this time it's the bad seed that kills the garden (kinda self-explanatory) and then "One less temptress, one less dagger to sharpen". First they were warning the lover and now they're clearly trying to keep them apart by saying that this woman (Taylor) is a bad influence or a temptation. Not sure if I would call this a literary reference, but it's noteworthy that lesbians in early media portrayals (the days of the Hays Code) were often shown as predatory or evil women who would seduce the good straight girls and turn them gay... bad seed/temptress indeed.

Then we have an add on chorus with "Devils that you know raise worse hell than a stranger". This is in fact a saying "Better the devil you know" which means it's better to choose the bad thing you already know over a new one, because you're already used to this one. But again, in this context it's flipped (she does this a lot). In this case, the devil you know is in fact WORSE than a stranger. So they're saying to her lover 'this devil of yours is worse hell and you'd be better off with a stranger' adding to the above warnings, and then they're also adding the warning "You're in terrible danger/She's the death you chose". Boy oh boy, they really didn't want them to be together, very Romeo and Juliet indeed...

Ok, the bridge: "And when that sky rains fire on you/ And you're persona non grata/ I'll tell you how I've been there too And that none of it matters". -> All these warnings are coming to fruition and the sky is now 'raining fire' on her lover. Something bad has happened and they are persona non grata, which is Latin for an unwelcome person, but more commonly used to say the worst person you can think of. So, her lover is in the eye of the storm and is seen as the guilty person, but Taylor tells her that she's been through the same before and it doesn't matter. Like she said in her Lavender Haze video, "We just ignore it and protect the real stuff."

The third verse gives details about what the fire storm mentioned above actually was (just for context, I know you didn't ask about that): some people read some fake news about her lover and came after her because they believed it. The "Jackles raised their hackles" and being dragged from your bed at night very much gives witch hunt imagery, which is a cool choice for two reasons: 1) like the 'witches' her lover is innocent and wrongly convicted of a crime, and 2) all 'witches' were women. 😉

In the last chorus, of course, Taylor's albatross becomes the rescuing angel that swoops in to save her lover from being burned at the stakes. The devil becomes the angel and the anti hero becomes the hero. She says "I'm the life you chose and all this terrible danger". This reminds me of peace: Yes, the life you chose with me comes with shit storms sometimes ('would it be enough if I can never give you peace?') but I will always rescue you if I have to.

(And this part hasn't happened yet, one reason why I love this song so much, it feels like such a sneaky insight into things yet to come, same as FOTS and the Alchemy 😊)

So, there you go, hope this helped, never ask long questions if you don't want long answers ;)

in another world,

this song would probably be #1

and that’s the tragic irony of this entire album — how much is said, and how little is heard

#this hurts #it’s one of my favorite songs on the album #kaylor #robin #gaylor #gaylor swift #ttpd

Listen to the Alchemy today and I’m so curious what hetlors think about the parts of the song that clearly reference a past relationship with this person? Do they think she and Travis secretly were in love with each other at the same time she was secretly in love with Matty??

“Cause the sign on your heart says it’s still reserved for me”

“What if I told you were cool?/that child’s play in school/is forgiven under my rule”

“I haven’t come around in so long/but I’m making a comeback to where I belong”

???

I love the inconsistencies she’s planted in the songs with obvious bearding red herrings. The alchemy seems to be the most obvious example of this. The football imagery is a red herring for Travis and the reunification language is a red herring for Matty, but both sets of lyrics fit perfectly when applied to Karlie 🥲✨👑

Genius.

Also the idea that all of those red herrings are mixed into this one song fits kind of with the idea of Alchemy?? Transforming other ingredients into GOLD?? Like Miss Karlie Kloss Sunshine Goldrush 🌞✨✨✨

#mhmm #no matter how u slice it it all leads back to karlie #the alchemy #kaylor #ttpd #bearding #gaylor swift #gaylor

Apparently the koi fish guitar is back in the museum, so maybe this means Long Live is off the set list again to make space for TTPD songs.

We’re probably losing a few other songs if we’re getting a whole Tortured Poets set and costume change, but very interesting that Long Live is the one to go. Made enough memories fighting dragons and now it’s time to say goodbye? I recon either BDILH or WAOLOM (or both) will be on the new set list and that’s a real statement, especially if she were to remove the Archer too. No more pleading, no more looking back fondly, now she’s singing her farewell songs. Can’t wait, 6 weeks until my show! 🤗

(Also, now that we’re finally in my time zone, where can I watch a live stream if I’m not on TikTok?)

#that’d be quite the statement if she did that #i agree the eras tour is a goodbye to her fans #ttpd #eras tour #ttpd set #long live

Taylor: “It's true, swear, scouts honor.”

Also Taylor:

#she’s so funny in this album #so high school #gaylor swift #gaylor #ttpd

[daisyswift3]

Why would Taylor have Aaron put the bass line from peace in Robin at the 1:33 to 1:41 timestamps of the song if Robin is supposed to be about a friend's kid when Taylor herself has explicitly confirmed that peace is specifically about her personal life and when Taylor herself used talking about peace with Paul McCartney as a segue to ask him advice on how to be a good parent when you're Beatles-in-the-60s level famous in a Rolling Stone article that came out on literally the 7th anniversary of the VSFS 2013 lol

Taylor including a portion of the bass line from peace in Robin and then putting Robin on her I Love You, It's Ruining My Life playlist is so insane and unhinged of her to do, and I know that Taylor's probably glad that most of her fans are way to dumb to understand what she means with Robin and connecting Robin to peace because their stupidity is actually what's helping her keep things in sweetness a little while longer for her beloved little baby bird but like holy shit most of her fans are like almost too dumb to function, like no joke lol

#took the words right out of my mouth #like i try so hard not to say anything mean abt them but like holy shit……… #how can u be THAT bad at analyzing art #i mean taylor is telling us in as direct a way as possible what this song is abt thru lyrical thematic and melodic parallels #THE SAME DAMN WAY SHE HAS FOR THE PAST LIKE 15 YRS #THE METHODS HAVE NOT CHANGED #sorry just had to get that off my chest #robin #peace #parallels #ttpd #gaylor #gaylor swift #kaylor
