(sad) lyrics to inspire you from folklore - taylor swift ♡
by: @ncoincidences for: @screnwriter ’s birthday! ♡
if one thing had been different, would everything be different today?
you knew the hero died, so what’s the movie for?
some things you just can’t speak about
a friend to all is a friend to none
chase two girls, lose the one
i knew you’d haunt all of my what-ifs
but i’m still on my tallest tiptoes, spinning in my highest heels, love, shining just for you
you taught me a secret language i can’t speak with anyone else
you know i didn’t want to have to haunt you
i knew i’d curse you for the longest time
look at this godforsaken mess that you made me
who knows if i never showed up, what could’ve been
you know damn well for you i would ruin myself a million little times
the worst thing that i ever did was what i did to you
don’t want no other shade of blue — but you; no other sadness would do
i remember thinkin' i had you
and if my wishes came true, it would’ve been you
i loved you, i swear i loved you, 'til my dying day
you had to kill me but it killed you all the same
even on my worst day, did i deserve, babe, all the hell you gave me?
my barren land, i am ash from your fire
you didn’t even hear me out
you’re not my homeland anymore, so what am i defending now?
you never even gave a warning sign (i gave so many signs)
i didn’t have it in myself to go with grace
you weren’t mine to lose, ’cause you were never mine
i never learned to read your mind, i couldn’t turn things around
look at this idiotic fool that you made me
and if i’m dead to you, why are you at the wake?
i still got love for you
i’ve been having a hard time adjusting, i had the shiniest wheels, now they're rusting
all this time, we always walked a very thin line
would it be enough if i could never give you peace?
it’s hard to be anywhere these days when all i want is you
you turned into your worst fears
i had a marvelous time ruinin' everything
you can aim for my heart, go for blood, but you would still miss me in your bones
so i’m leavin' out the side door
my only one, my kingdom come undone, you have beaten my heart
so step right out, there is no amount of crying i can do for you
you were my town, now i’m in exile, seein' you out
