really thinking about making a football sideblog...🤔

okay i did it, it's @forzadiavoloale

i won’t confess that i waited but i’m right where you left me. if you ever think you got it wrong, i let the lamp burn. you said you were gonna grow up (i’m sure you got a wife out there, kids and christmas) then you were gonna come find me (but i’m unaware). time went on for everybody else, she won’t know it. the woman who sits by the window—still sitting in the corner i haunt, cross-legged in the dim light—has turned out the light. if our love died young (the goddess of timing once found us beguiling) i can’t bear witness (i thought it was just goodbye for now). if you ever think you got it wrong, i hope you’d return. cause love’s never lost when perspective is earned (they expected me to find somewhere, some perspective, but i sat and stared). did you hear about the girl who lives in delusion? forgive me peter, you left me no choice but to stay here forever.

in honour of the 2-year anniversary of ttpd, put your top three tracks in the tags

Hapoy birthday to "I was supposed to be sent away but they forgot to come and get me"! Maybe the best opening line of any album ever

thinking about "the old widow goes to the stone everyday, i don't, i just sit here and wait, grieving for the living" and "remember looking at this room, we loved it 'cause of the light / now i just sit in the dark and wonder if it's time" and "forgive me, peter, please know that i tried to hold on to the days that you were mine / but the woman who sits by the window has turned out the light"

oh and "i wait by the door like i'm just a kid" and "even statues crumble if they're made to wait" and "i wait patiently, he's gonna notice me" and "like waiting for a bus that never shows" and "i died on the altar waiting for the proof"

the thing about taylor swift's music is that you can enjoy any song individually but knowing her discography with the love and attention of a scholar will have you connecting dots against your will. let me just listen to shake it off right quick *internally drafting an essay titled It's Gonna Be Alright: A Textual Analysis of the Act of Songwriting as Self-Therapy in the Works of Taylor Swift*

god ttpd is such an insane album like can you believe it STARTS with fortnight????? it STARTS with "and for a fortnight there, we were forever" and somehow gets BETTER from there like wtf

The second half of The Anthology is truly bonkers like oh let me just dismantle every myth I've ever believed and created about myself in 7 songs and every one of them is a gut punch
