taylor swift lyrics, ttpd: the anthology edition, part two
i look in people's windows
▸ i had died the tiniest death.
▸ i spied the catch in your breath.
▸ i still ponder what it meant.
▸ does it feel alright to not know me?
▸ i'm addicted to the 'if only'.
▸ i look in people's windows like i'm some deranged weirdo.
the prophecy
▸ i got cursed like eve got bitten.
▸ i guess a lesser [person] would've lost hope, a greater [person] wouldn't beg.
▸ please, i've been on my knees.
▸ i don't want money, just someone who wants my company.
▸ who do i have to speak to about if they can redo the prophecy?
▸ i'm feeling like the very last drops of an ink pen.
▸ even statues crumble if they're made to wait.
▸ i'm so afraid i sealed my fate.
cassandra
▸ in the streets there's a raging riot.
▸ when the truth comes out it's quiet.
▸ do you believe me now?
▸ they say, what doesn't kill you makes you aware.
▸ they knew. they knew the whole time.
▸ blood's thick but nothing like a payroll.
▸ i was onto something. they all said nothing.
▸ no one heard. not a single word was heard.
peter
▸ is it something i did?
▸ i thought it was just goodbye for now.
▸ you said you were gonna grow up then you were gonna come find me.
▸ promises oceans deep but never to keep.
▸ are you still a mind reader?
▸ life was always easier on you than it was on me.
▸ we both did the best we could do underneath the same moon.
▸ love's never lost when perspective is earned.
▸ the shelf life of those fantasies has expired.
▸ forgive me, [name], please know that i tried to hold on to the days when you were mine.
the bolter
▸ i can confirm i made a curious child.
▸ excellent fun till you get to know them.
▸ oh, we must stop meeting like this.
▸ all my fucking lives flashed before my eyes.
▸ i've been many places with men of many faces.
▸ hearts are mine for the breaking.
▸ there's escape in escaping.
robin
▸ long may you reign.
▸ you're an animal. you are bloodthirsty.
▸ way to go, tiger.
▸ you look ridiculous and you have no idea.
▸ buried down deep and out of your reach the secret we all vowed to keep from you.
▸ you have no room in your dreams for regrets.
▸ the time will arrive for the cruel and the mean.
▸ you'll learn to bounce back just like your trampoline.
the manuscript
▸ i'm not a donor but i'd give you my heart if you needed it.
▸ if the sex is half as good as the conversation is, we'll soon be pushing strollers.
▸ afterward i only ate kids' cereal.
▸ years passed like scenes of a show.
▸ looking backwards might be the only way to move forward.
▸ at last, i know what the agony has been for.
▸ now and then i re-read the manuscript but the story isn't mine anymore.

taylor swift lyrics, ttpd: the anthology edition, part one
the black dog
▸ i am someone who, until recent events, you shared your secrets with.
▸ your location, you forgot to turn it off.
▸ i just don't understand how you don't miss me.
▸ old habits die screaming.
▸ i move through the world with the heartbroken.
▸ i may never open up the way i did for you.
▸ do you hate me? was it hazing?
▸ now i want to sell my house and set fire to all my clothes and hire a priest to come and exorcise my demons even if i die screaming.
▸ i hope it's shitty.
imgonnagetyouback
▸ you did your research, you knew the price going in.
▸ i can tell when somebody still wants me. come clean.
▸ i'm gonna get you back.
▸ you'll find that you were never not mine.
▸ i can take the upper hand and touch your body, flip the script and leave you like a dumb house party.
▸ whether i'm gonna flip you off or pull you into a closet, i haven't decided yet.
▸ even if it's handcuffed, i'm leaving here with you.
▸ i hate you but i love you just the same.
▸ pick your poison. i'm poison either way.
the albatross
▸ cross your thoughtless heart.
▸ one bad seed kills the garden.
▸ they tried to warn you about me.
▸ devils that you know raise worse hell than a stranger.
▸ you're in terrible danger.
▸ i've been there too and none of it matters.
▸ i was sleeping soundly when they dragged me from my bed.
▸ the devil that you know looks now more like an angel.
▸ i'm the life you chose and all this terrible danger.
chloe or sam or sophia or marcus
▸ i loved you the way that you were.
▸ you needed me but you needed drugs more and i couldn't watch it happen.
▸ i changed into goddesses, villains and fools, changed plans and lovers and outfits and rules all to outrun my desertion of you.
▸ cooler in theory but not if you force it to be.
▸ will i always wonder?
how did it end?
▸ come one, come all. it's happening again.
▸ i'll tell no one except all of my friends.
▸ how did it end?
▸ lost the game of chance, what are the chances?
▸ guess who we ran into at the shops.
▸ didn't you hear they called it all off?
▸ my beloved ghost and me, sitting in a tree, d-y-i-n-g.
▸ i can't pretend like i understand.
so high school
▸ i feel so high school every time i look at you.
▸ tell me about the first time you saw me.
▸ your friends are around so be quiet.
▸ are you gonna marry, kiss or kill me?
▸ no one's ever had me, not like you.
▸ touch me while your bros play Grand Theft Auto.
▸ you knew what you wanted and you got me.
▸ i'm hearing voices, like a madman.
i hate it here
▸ quick, quick. tell me something awful.
▸ tell me all your secrets.
▸ all you'll ever be is my eternal consolation prize.
▸ i don't believe in good luck now that i know what's what.
▸ i'm there most of the year 'cause i hate it here.
▸ nostalgia is a mind's trick.
▸ i'm lonely but i'm good.
▸ i'm bitter but i swear i'm fine.
▸ this place made me feel worthless.
thank you aimee
▸ all that time you were throwing punches, i was building something.
▸ i can't forgive the way you made me feel but i can't forget the way you made me heal.
▸ it wasn't a fair fight or a clean kill.
▸ i built a legacy that you can't undo.
▸ there wouldn't be this, if there hadn't been you.
▸ maybe you've reframed it and in your mind you never beat my spirit black and blue.
▸ i don't think you've changed much.

guilty as sin?
▸ my boredom's bone-deep.
▸ am i allowed to cry?
▸ i'm seeing visions, am i bad? or mad? or wise?
▸ one slip and i'm falling back into the hedge maze.
▸ oh, what a way to die.
▸ i keep recalling things we never did.
▸ how i long for our trysts.
▸ how can i be guilty as sin?
▸ i keep these longings locked inside a vault.
▸ someone told me there's no such things as bad thoughts, only your actions talk.
▸ they're gonna crucify me anway.
▸ what if they way you hold me is actually what's holy?
▸ i choose you and me religiously.
who's afraid of little old me?
▸ the "who's who?`" of "who's that?" is poised for the attack.
▸ you don't get to tell me about 'sad'.
▸ if you wanted me dead, you should've just said. nothing makes me feel more alive.
▸ who's afraid of little old me? you should be.
▸ the scandal was contained, the bullet had just grazed.
▸ at all costs, keep your good name.
▸ you don't get to tell me you feel bad.
▸ is it a wonder i broke?
▸ let's hear one more joke. then we could all just laugh until i cry.
▸ i was tame, i was gentle till the circus life made me mean.
▸ they say they didn't do it to hurt me but what if they did?
▸ i want to snarl and show you just how disturbed this has made me.
▸ you wouldn't last an hour in the asylum where they raised me.
▸ isn't that what they all said? that i'm fearsome and i'm wretched and i'm wrong.
▸ you lured me and you hurt me and you taught me.
▸ you caged me and then you called me crazy.
▸ i am what i am 'cause you trained me.
i can fix him (no really i can)
▸ the jokes that [you/they] told across the bar were revolting and far too loud.
▸ they shake their heads, saying "god help [them]" when i tell 'em you're the one.
▸ i can fix him, no really i can. and only i can.
▸ i could see it from a mile away.
▸ you had a halo of the highest grade, you just hadn't met met yet.
▸ come close, i'll show you heaven if you'll be an angel all night.
▸ trust me, i can handle me a dangerous [man/woman].
loml
▸ we were just kids, babe.
▸ i don't mind, it takes time.
▸ i thought i was better safe than starry-eyed.
▸ i felt aglow like this. never before and never since.
▸ you and i went from one kiss to getting married.
▸ you said i'm the love of your life about a million times.
▸ a conman sells a fool a get-love-quick scheme.
▸ i felt a hole like this never before and ever since.
▸ what we thought was for all time was momentary.
▸ i wish i could un-recall how we almost had it all.
▸ the coward claimed he was a lion.
▸ i'll still see it until i die. you're the loss of my life.
i can do it with a broken heart
▸ i can show you lies.
▸ i'm a real tough kid, i can handle my shit.
▸ they said 'you gotta fake it 'til you make it' and i did.
▸ you said you'd love me all your life but that life was too short.
▸ i can do it with a broken heart.
▸ i'm so depressed, i act like it's my birthday every day.
▸ i cry a lot but i am so productive, it's an art.
▸ you know you're good when you can even do it with a broken heart.
▸ i can hold my breath, i've been doing it since [you/they] left.
▸ i'm miserable and nobody even knows!
the smallest man who ever lived
▸ was any of it true?
▸ now you know what it feels like.
▸ i don't miss what we had.
▸ in public, you showed me off then sank in stoned oblivion.
▸ you didn't measure up in any measure of a man.
▸ were you sent by someone who wanted me dead?
▸ good riddance 'cause it wasn't sexy once it wasn't forbidden.
▸ i would've died for your sins. instead i just died inside.
▸ in plain sight you hid but you are what you did.
▸ i'll forget you but i'll never forgive.
the alchemy
▸ this happens once every few lifetimes.
▸ these chemicals hit me like white wine.
▸ what if i told you i'm back?
▸ the hospital was a drag. worst sleep i ever had.
▸ ditch the clowns, get the crown.
▸ what if i told you we're cool?
▸ honestly, who are we to fight the alchemy?
▸ where's the trophy?
clara bow
▸ all your life, did you know you'd be picked like a rose?
▸ i'm not trying to exaggerate but i think i might die.
▸ this town is fake but you're the real thing.
▸ take the glory, give everything.
▸ promise to be dazzling.
▸ you're the new god we're worshipping.
▸ beauty is a beast that roars down on all fours, demanding more.
▸ it's hell on earth to be heavenly.
▸ them's the breaks, they don't come gently.

fortnight
▸ i was supposed to be sent away but they forgot to come and get me.
▸ i was a functioning alcoholic till nobody noticed my new aesthetic.
▸ no one here's to blame but what about your quiet treason?
▸ for a fortnight there, we were forever.
▸ i took the miracle move-on drug, the effects were temporary.
▸ i love you, it's ruining my life.
▸ thought of calling you but you won't pick up.
the tortured poets department
▸ who uses typewriters anyway?
▸ you're in self-sabotage mode.
▸ we're modern idiots.
▸ you smoked then ate seven bars of chocolate.
▸ i chose this cyclone with you.
▸ sometimes i wonder if you're gonna screw this up with me.
▸ so tell me, who else is gonna know me?
▸ that's the closest i've come to my heart exploding.
my boy only breaks his favorite toys
▸ you should've seen them when they first got me.
▸ i only break my favourite toys.
▸ i should've known it was a matter of time.
▸ we could've played for keeps this time.
▸ i know i'm just repeating myself. put me back on my shelf.
▸ i'll tell you that [you/they] run because [you/they] love me.
▸ i knew too much.
▸ you saw forever so you smashed it up.
▸ once i fix me, you're gonna miss me.
▸ you took me out of my box, stole my tortured heart, left all these broken parts and told me i'm better off but i'm not.
down bad
▸ for a moment, i knew cosmic love.
▸ now i'm down bad, crying at the gym.
▸ everything comes out of teenage petulance.
▸ fuck it if i can't have [you/them].
▸ i might just die, it would make no difference.
▸ i might just not get up, i might just stay down bad.
▸ fuck it, i was in love.
so long, london
▸ my spine split from carrying us up the hill.
▸ i stopped trying to make you laugh.
▸ how much sad did you think i had in me?
▸ i didn't opt in to be your odd man out.
▸ i'm pissed off you let me give you all that youth for free.
▸ you say i abandoned the ship but i was going down with it.
▸ my friends said it isn't right to be scared every day of a love affair.
▸ just how low did you think i'd go before i'd self-implode?
▸ you swore that you loved me but where were the clues?
▸ i'm just mad as hell 'cause i loved this place.
but daddy i love him
▸ i just learned these people only raise you to cage you.
▸ i just learned these people try and save you 'cause they hate you.
▸ they slammed the door on my whole world. the one thing i wanted.
▸ you should see your face.
▸ no i'm not coming to my senses.
▸ i know [you/they]'re crazy but [you/they]'re the one i want.
▸ all my plans were laid.
▸ growing up precocious sometimes means not growing up at all.
▸ i'll tell you something right now, i'd rather burn my whole life down than listen to one more second of all this bitching and moaning.
▸ i'll tell you something about my good name, it's mine alone to disgrace.
▸ i don't cater to all these vipers dressed in empath's clothing.
▸ god save the most judgmental creeps who say they want what's best for me.
▸ you ain't gotta pray for me if all you want is gray for me. then it's just white noise and it's just my choice.
▸ scandal does funny things to pride but brings lovers closer.
▸ fuck 'em, it's over.
▸ time, doesn't it give some perspective?
fresh out the slammer
▸ fresh out the slammer, i know who my first call will be to.
▸ handcuffed to the spell i was under, for just one hour of sunshine.
▸ years of labor, locks and ceilings, in the shade of how [they were] feeling.
▸ it's gonna be alright, i did my time.
▸ as i said in my letters, now that i know better, i will never lose my baby again.
▸ my friends tried but i wouldn't hear it, watched me daily disappearing.
▸ ain't no way i'm gonna screw up, now that i know what's at stake here.
florida!!!
▸ you can beat the heat if you beat the charges too.
▸ they said i was a cheat, i guess it must be true.
▸ this city reeks of driving myself crazy.
▸ little did you know, your home's really only a town you're just a guest in.
▸ i'm barricaded in the bathroom with a bottle of wine.
▸ well, me and my ghosts, we had a hell of a time.
▸ yes, i'm haunted but i'm feeling just fine.
▸ all my girls got their lace and their crimes.
▸ i did my best to lay to rest all of the bodies that have ever been on my body.
▸ i've got some regrets, i'll bury them in florida.
▸ tell me i'm despicable, say it's unforgivable.
▸ love left me like this and i don't want to exist.

hozier lyrics, unheard edition
❛ it can't be said i'm an early bird. it's ten o'clock before i say a word. ❜
❛ how do you sleep so well? ❜
❛ you keep telling me to live right. to go to bed before the daylight but then you wake up for the sunrise. ❜
❛ you know you don't gotta pretend. ❜
❛ don't you just wanna wake up dark as a lake, smelling like a bonfire, lost in a haze? ❜
❛ if you're drunk on life, babe, i think that's great. ❜
❛ while in this world, i think i'll take my whiskey neat, my coffee black and my bed at three. ❜
❛ you're too sweet for me. ❜
❛ i aim low, i aim true and the ground's where i go. ❜
❛ i work late where i'm free from the phone and the job gets done. ❜
❛ but who wants to live forever, babe? ❜
❛ you treat your mouth as if it's heaven's gate. the rest of you like you're the TSA. ❜
❛ don't get me wrong, you know you're bright as the morning, as soft as the rain, pretty as a vine, as sweet as a grape. ❜
❛ everything in my vision is movement and life. ❜
❛ springtime in the country, i can smell summer on its breath. ❜
❛ everything in my vision, departure and death. ❜
❛ this year, i swear it will be buried in actions. ❜
❛ this year, i swear it will be buried in words. ❜
❛ i feel as useful as dirt. ❜
❛ put my body to work. ❜
❛ the sun hesitates more on each evening's darkening with all things god allows remain above ground. like grief and sweet memory. ❜
❛ sun coming up on a world that's easy now. ❜
❛ after all, darling, i wouldn't sell the world the way things are turning. ❜
❛ if it falls, i would hold on for all it's worth. ❜
❛ the future's so bright it's burning. ❜
❛ the martyrs of our revolution, their spinning caused the earth to shake. ❜
❛ the problem brought its own solution. ❜
❛ i wouldn't fare well. hedgehog-under-a-van-wheel kind of wouldn't fare well. ❜
❛ i'll take any high. ❜
❛ i'll take any solitary pleasure that was sorrow in disguise. ❜
❛ let the sun shine on me through a falling sky, i'll be alright. ❜
❛ i'll deny me none while i'm allowed. ❜

❛ oh, it’s okay. i have that joke. ❜
❛ if you think i’m talking about you, then yes, i’m definitely talking about you, yes. ❜
❛ we're gonna snapchat the revolution. ❜
❛ you can't ask me where i'm from and not know geography. ❜
❛ where's your white guilt? ❜
❛ i'm not looking for a lot of white guilt, just enough where you apologize even if you don't mean it. ❜
❛ i was vexed. i was fuming. i had had it up to here. ❜
❛ there's no time for symbolism! ❜
❛ what’s the deal with that old dude? ❜

florence + the machine lyrics, high as hope edition
A SIDE
❛ i'm so high, i can see an angel. ❜
❛ i hear your heart beating in your chest. ❜
❛ the world slows 'till there's nothing left. ❜
❛ in those heavy days in june when love became an act of defiance. ❜
❛ hold onto each other. ❜
❛ you were broken-hearted and the world was, too. ❜
❛ i was beginning to lose my grip. i always held it loosely but this time i admit, i felt it really start to slip. ❜
❛ at seventeen, i started to starve myself. ❜
❛ i thought that love was a kind of emptiness. ❜
❛ at least, i understood then the hunger i felt & i didn't have to call it loneliness. ❜
❛ we all have a hunger. ❜
❛ don't let it get you down, you're the best thing i've seen. ❜
❛ we never found the answer but we knew one thing. ❜
❛ in that pink dress, they're gonna crucify me. ❜
❛ how could anything bad ever happen to you? ❜
❛ you make a fool of death with your beauty. ❜
❛ i thought that love was in the drugs. ❜
❛ the more i took, the more it took away and i could never get enough. ❜
❛ for a moment, i forgot to worry. ❜
❛ i thought it doesn't get better than this. ❜
❛ there can be nothing better than this. ❜
❛ the world is at your fingertips. ❜
❛ everything i ever did was just another way to scream your name. over and over and over again. ❜
❛ i want a space to watch things grow. ❜
❛ did i dream too big? do i have to let it go? ❜
❛ what if one day there is no such thing as snow? ❜
❛ i don't know anything. except that green is so green. ❜
❛ there's a special kind of sadness that seems to come with spring. ❜
❛ you need a big god. big enough to hold your love. ❜
❛ you keep me up at night but to my messages, you do not reply. ❜
❛ you know i still like you the most. ❜
❛ you'll always be my favourite ghost. ❜
❛ sometimes i think it's getting better and then it gets much worse. ❜
❛ is it just part of the process? jesus christ, it hurts. ❜
❛ though i know i should know better, i can make this work. ❜
❛ shower your affection, let it rain on me. ❜
❛ are you deeply sleeping or are you still awake? ❜
❛ a good friend told me you've been staying out so late. ❜
❛ be careful, my darling. be careful what it takes. ❜
❛ from what i've seen so far, the good ones always seem to break. ❜
❛ i can feel your anger from way across the sea. ❜
❛ i was kissing strangers, i was causing such a scene. ❜
❛ oh, the heart, it hides such unimaginable things. ❜
❛ i want you so badly but you could be anyone. ❜
❛ hold me down, i'm so tired now. ❜
❛ leave me where i lie. ❜
❛ i feel like i'm about to fall, the room begins to sway. ❜
❛ i can hear the sirens but i cannot walk away. ❜
❛ i thought i was flying but maybe i'm dying tonight. ❜
B SIDE
❛ i'm sorry i ruined your birthday. ❜
❛ i guess i could go back, try and make my parents proud. ❜
❛ i don't think it would be too long before i'm drunk again. ❜
❛ this is the only thing i've ever had any faith in. ❜
❛ [NAME], i don't say it enough. you are so loved. ❜
❛ all the walls were melting and there were mermaids everywhere. hearts flew from my hands and i could see people's feelings. ❜
❛ and you, you were the one i treated the worst. only because you loved me the most. ❜
❛ we haven't spoken in a long time. i think about it sometimes. ❜
❛ i don't know who i was back then and i hope and hope i would never treat anyone like that again. ❜
❛ oh [NAME], you've always been my north star. ❜
❛ i have to tell you something, i'm still afraid of the dark. ❜
❛ do you understand that with every seed you sow you make this cold world beautiful? ❜
❛ you told me all doors are open to the believer. ❜
❛ i believe her. ❜
❛ how's that working out for you, honey? do you feel loved? ❜
❛ i drink too much coffee and i think of you often. ❜
❛ are you afraid? 'cause i'm terrified. ❜
❛ you remind me that it's such a wonderful thing to love. ❜
❛ i believe in you and in our hearts we know the truth. ❜
❛ i believe in love and the darker it gets, the more i do. ❜
❛ it's just too much, i cannot get you close enough. ❜
❛ a hundred arms, a hundred years, you can always find me here. ❜
❛ lord, don't let me break this, let me hold it lightly. ❜
❛ we have no need to fight. we raise our voices and let our hearts take flight. ❜
❛ my held breath fills the room with love. ❜
❛ it hurts in ways i can't describe. ❜
❛ my heart bends and breaks so many, many times and is born again with each sunrise. ❜
❛ we're sorry, we thought you didn't care. ❜
❛ how does it feel now you've scratched that itch? ❜
❛ hubris is a bitch. ❜
❛ i feel nervous in a way that can't be named. ❜
❛ we're a family pulled from a flood. ❜
❛ it was so far to fall but it didn't hurt at all. ❜
❛ i've always been in love with you. could you tell it from the moment that i met you? ❜
❛ they told me that they loved me then ghosted me again. ❜
❛ the older i get i find that happiness is an extremely uneventful subject. ❜
❛ i must confess, i did it all for myself. ❜
❛ the loneliness never left me. i always took it with me. ❜
❛ the loneliness never left me. i always took it with me but i can put it down in the pleasure of your company. ❜
❛ no chorus will come in. no ballad will be written. it will be entirely forgotten. ❜
❛ and if tomorrow it's all over, at least we had it for a moment. ❜
❛ things seem so unstable but for a moment we were able to be still. ❜
❛ this will be entirely forgotten. ❜

taylor swift lyrics, 1989 from the vault edition
❛ what if all i need is you? ❜
❛ got love-struck, it went straight to my head. ❜
❛ i'm lovelorn and nobody knows. ❜
❛ i'll pay the price, you won't. ❜
❛ but if i'm all dressed up, they might as well be looking at us. and if they call me a slut, you know it might be worth it for once. ❜
❛ if i'm gonna be drunk i might as well be drunk in love. ❜
❛ that was my crime, the wrong place at the right time. ❜
❛ in a world of boys, he's a gentleman. ❜
❛ you're not saying you're in love with me but you're going to. ❜
❛ it's a big mistake. it might blow up in your pretty face. ❜
❛ i'm not saying 'do it anyway' but you're going to. ❜
❛ the waiting is a sadness fading into madness. ❜
❛ i'm holding out hope for you to say 'don't go'. ❜
❛ why'd you have to lead me on? ❜
❛ why'd you have to twist the knife? walk away and leave me bleeding. ❜
❛ your silence has me screaming. ❜
❛ it's not fair 'cause you kiss me and it stops time. ❜
❛ i'm yours but you're not mine. ❜
❛ i'm about to fold unless you say 'don't go'. ❜
❛ why'd you have to make me want you? ❜
❛ why'd you have to give me nothing back? ❜
❛ why'd you have to make me love you? ❜
❛ i said, 'i love you', you said nothing back. ❜
❛ i guess i'll never know, now that we don't talk. ❜
❛ i miss the old ways, you didn't have to change. ❜
❛ i remind myself, the more i gave, you'd want me less. ❜
❛ i cannot be your friend so i pay the price of what i lost. ❜
❛ truth is, i can't pretend it's platonic. ❜
❛ now that we don't talk, i don't have to pretend i like acid rock or that i'd like to be on a mega-yacht. ❜
❛ guess maybe i am better off now that we don't talk. ❜
❛ you had people who called you on unmarked numbers. i let it slide like a hose on a slippery plastic summer, all was quickly forgiven. ❜
❛ you were so magnetic, it was almost obnoxious. ❜
❛ i didn't come here to make friends. ❜
❛ when you hold me, it holds me together. ❜
❛ when you told me we'd get back together and you kissed me in a way that's gonna screw me up forever. ❜
❛ i broke my own heart 'cause you were too polite to do it. ❜
❛ you dream of my mouth before it called you a lying traitor. ❜
❛ you search in every girl's/guy's bed for something greater. ❜
❛ was it over when she laid down on your couch? is it over now? ❜
❛ was it over when he unbuttoned my blouse? is it over now? ❜
❛ your new girl/guy/fling is my clone. ❜
❛ did you think i didn't see you? there were flashing lights. ❜
❛ at least i had the decency to keep my nights out of sight. ❜
❛ i think about jumping off of very tall somethings just to see you come running. ❜
❛ if they've got blue eyes, i will surmise that you'll probably date them. ❜
❛ i was hoping you'd be there and say the one thing i've been wanting but no. ❜

olivia rodrigo lyrics, hidden vinyl tracks edition
updated & added 'so american' 24.03.2024
❛ if i told you how much i think about them, you'd think i was in love. ❜
❛ i'm so obsessed with your ex. i know they've been asleep on my side of your bed and i can feel it. ❜
❛ i remember every detail you would ever tell me so be careful, baby. ❜
❛ [you/they]'ve got those lips, [you/they]'ve got those hips, the life of every fucking party. ❜
❛ i know you love me and i know it's crazy but every time you call my name, i think you mistake me for [them]. ❜
❛ are they friends with your friends? are they good in bed? do you think about them? no? i'm fine, it doesn't matter. ❜
❛ perfect, easy, so good to me. so, why's there a pit in my gut in the shape of you? ❜
❛ i barely sleep when you sleep next to me. ❜
❛ i say that i'm fine, i tell you all the time i've never felt so happy and sure. ❜
❛ once you let the thought in, then it's already done. ❜
❛ i lay in [your/their] arms and pretend that it's love. ❜
❛ i'm not half as decent as you. ❜
❛ i'd rather be tied to someone, even if they're wrong. ❜
❛ i make excuses but my friends know the truth is i'm not as alright as i claim. ❜
❛ i say that i'm fine, i tell them all the time as they watch all the life fade away. ❜
❛ i pretend that it's love 'cause what if i never find anything better? ❜
❛ we'll stay together 'cause how could i ever trade something that's good for what's right? ❜
❛ i hadn't felt this hopeful since the day that you left and it felt nice. ❜
❛ i was half myself without you and now i feel so complete. ❜
❛ i can't even remember what made me lose all my sleep. ❜
❛ i cried a million rivers for you but that's over now. ❜
❛ now, you're just a stranger i know everything about. ❜
❛ how did that happen? i can't imagine ever doing all that stuff for just one guy. like [you/they]'re just some guy. ❜
❛ i hope you're happy, babe, you know i really do. ❜
❛ god knows i am the [girl] i am because of you. ❜
❛ you are the best thing that i'll ever keep so far out of my life. ❜
❛ there's nothing left for me to know. ❜
❛ i had to say, you had to go. ❜
❛ i screamed, i cried, i did the whole thing and i love you mad but it doesn't matter anymore. ❜
❛ if i'm not enough for you, you're not enough for me. ❜
❛ i fought a million battles but you can't get to me now. ❜
❛ you say i'm cruel beyond my years and you say you don't know me anymore. ❜
❛ i got panic rooms inside my head. ❜
❛ i get down with crooked men but i am the girl i've always been. ❜
❛ i got wrapped up in the game again. ❜
❛ i can't say i'm a perfect ten but i am the girl i've always been. ❜
❛ don't say that i've been acting different. i'm nothing if not consistent. ❜
❛ you knew everything you'd be getting. i told you right from the beginning. ❜
❛ you never dreamed i'd be so cold and then with venom on your tongue you ask who i have become. ❜
❛ i am a candle in the wind. i'll turn you out, i'll turn you in. ❜
❛ you've got hands that make hell seem cold. ❜
❛ [you/they]'re like a poem i wish i wrote. ❜
❛ oh god, it's just not fair of [you/them] to make me feel this much. ❜
❛ i'd go anywhere [you/they] go. ❜
❛ oh god, i'm gonna marry [you/them] if [you/they] keep this shit up ❜
❛ i'm so boring and i'm so rude. can't have a conversation if it's not all about [you/them]. ❜
❛ i really love my bed but, man, it's hard to sleep when [you/they]'re with me. ❜
❛ i might just be in love. ❜
❛ i apologize if it's a little too much just a little too soon. ❜
❛ if the conversation ever were to come up, i don't wanna assume this stuff. ❜

mitski lyrics, The Land Is Inhospitable And So Are We edition
❛ as i got older, i learned i'm a drinker. sometimes a drink feels like family. ❜
❛ did you go and make promises you can't keep? ❜
❛ amateur mistake, you can take it from me. ❜
❛ i try to remember the wrath of the devil was also given to him by god. ❜
❛ i have a hope and though she's blind with no name, she shits where she's supposed to and feeds herself while i'm away. ❜
❛ sometimes i think it would be easier without [them] but i know nothing can hurt me when i see [their] sleeping face. ❜
❛ all of our love is filling all of our room. ❜
❛ now i bend like a willow, thinking of [you/them]. ❜
❛ i sip on the rest of the coffee [you/they] left like it's a kiss left of [you/them]. ❜
❛ something set free is running through the night and the dark awaits us all around the corner. ❜
❛ here in our place we have for the day, can we stay a while and listen for heaven? ❜
❛ i don't like my mind, i don't like being left alone in a room with all its opinions about the things that i've done. ❜
❛ so, yeah, i blast music loud and i work myself to the bone and on an inconvenient christmas, i eat a cake. a whole cake, all for me. ❜
❛ there's another memory that gets stuck inside the walls of my skull waiting for its turn to talk. and it may be a few years but you can bet it's there, waiting still for me to be left alone in a room full of things that i've done. ❜
❛ i want someone to take this soul, i can't bear to keep it. ❜
❛ i'd give it just to give and all i will take are the consequences. ❜
❛ your pain is eased but you'll never be free. ❜
❛ there's a deal that i made. ❜
❛ when memories snow and cover up the driveway, i shovel all those memories and clear the path to drive to the store. ❜
❛ and if i break, could i go on break? ❜
❛ i'll be back in my room, writing speeches in my head. ❜
❛ my love is mine, all mine. ❜
❛ nothing in the world belongs to me but my love is mine, all mine. ❜
❛ nothing in the world is mine for free but my love. ❜
❛ after everyone's long been gone but me, i was hiding or forgotten. the only one left. ❜
❛ now the world is mine alone with no one to share the memory. ❜
❛ you're my best friend. now i've no one to tell how i lost my best friend. ❜
❛ remember when we met, we acted like two fools. we were so glad to have found it. ❜
❛ that love is like a star. it's gone, we just see it shining. it's traveled very far. i'll keep a leftover light burning so you can keep looking up. isn't that worth holding on? ❜
❛ you know i'd always been alone till you taught me to live for somebody. ❜
❛ you believe me like a god. i destroy you like i am. ❜
❛ i'm sorry i'm the one you love. ❜
❛ no one will ever love me like you again. ❜
❛ so, when you leave me, i should die. i deserve it, don't i? ❜
❛ one day, you'll figure me out and i'll meet judgement by the hounds. ❜
❛ people always gave me love. others were never to blame after all. ❜
❛ you believe me like a god. i betray you like a man. ❜
❛ stride through the house naked. don't even care that the curtains are open. ❜
❛ let the darkness see me. ❜
❛ streets are mine, the night is mine. all my own. ❜
❛ oh, how i love me after you. i'm king of all the land. ❜
