Stand Up To Cancer Telethon in Los Angeles - September 7, 2012

♡ Lover photoshoot ♡ (Credit if you use)

I didn’t ask for this; no one asks for this. You’re born into it. You grow up oblivious and sheltered, and one day the evil realities of this place hit you square between the eyes like a perfectly aimed bullet. If this were a movie, I would ride off in some blood red sunset down a stretch of desert road into the wasteland that keeps us captive here. But this isn’t a movie, these are the Badlands.

How we met and sparks flew instantly

without your past you could never have arrived so wondrously and brutally, by design or some violent, exquisite happenstance ... here.

The most miraculous process is watching a song go from a tiny idea in the middle of the night to something that 55,000 people are singing back to you.

“Death by a Thousand Cuts” was inspired by the Netflix movie “Someone Great,” while that film’s director was inspired by Swift’s own “1989” album.  (x)

hey @taylorswift do you happen to know what time it is? 

Oh, don’t blame me, my drug is my baby I’ve been using for the rest of my life.

I’ve decided that in this life, I want to be defined by the things I love- not the things I hate, the things I’m afraid of, or the things that haunt me in the middle of the night. Those things may be struggles, but they’re not my identity. I wish the same for you. May your struggles become inaudible background noise behind the loud, clergies voices of those who love and appreciate you. Turn those voices up in the mix in your head. May you take notice of the things in your life that are nice and make you feel safe and maybe even find wonderment in them. May you write down your feelings and reflect on the years later, only to learn all the trials and the tribulations you thought might kill you… didn’t. I hope that someday you forget the pain ever existed. I hope that if there is a lover in your life, it’s someone who deserves you. If that’s the case, I hope you treat them with care.

Hey guys, it’s Taylor.

i take the long way home...
