Taylor Swift

And that’s the thing about illicit affairs And clandestine meetings and longing stares It’s born from just one single glance But it dies and it dies and it dies A million little times

Only twenty minutes to sleep But you dream of some epiphany Just one single glimpse of relief To make some sense of what you’ve seen

I want you to know I’m a mirrorball I’ll show you every version of yourself tonight I’ll get you out on the floor Shimmering beautiful And when I break, it’s in a million pieces

I just wanted you to know that this is me trying I just wanted you to know that this is me trying They told me all of my cages were mental So I got wasted like all my potential And my words shoot to kill when I’m mad I have a lot of regrets about that

And they said There goes the last great American dynasty Who knows, if she never showed up, what could’ve been There goes the maddest woman this town has ever seen

We never painted by the numbers, baby But we were making it count You know the greatest loves of all time are over now

Cutting me open, then healing me fine Were there clues I didn’t see? And isn’t it just so pretty to think All along there was some Invisible string Tying you to me?

And you’re the hero flying around, saving face And if I’m dead to you, why are you at the wake? Cursing my name, wishing I stayed Look at how my tears ricochet

As long as danger is near And it’s just around the corner, darling ‘Cause it lives in me No, I could never give you peace
