midnights
lavender haze (FAVOURITE)
talk your talk and go viral
i just need this love spiral
get it off your chest
get it off my desk (get it off my desk)
talk your talk and go viral
i just need this love spiral
get it off your chest
get it off my desk
maroon (FAVOURITE)
and i wake with your memory over me
that's a real fucking legacy, legacy (it was maroon)
and i wake up with your memory over me
that's a real fucking legacy to leave
anti-hero (fav)
i have this dream my daughter-in-law kills me for the money
she thinks i left them in the will
the family gathers 'round and reads it and then someone screams out
"she's laughing up at us from hell"
snow on the beach
i (i) can't (can't) speak, afraid to jinx it
i (i) don't (don't) even dare to wish it
but your eyes are flying saucers from another planet
now i'm all for you like janet
can this be a real thing? can it?
you're on your own, kid (FAVOURITE MAKES ME SOB)
from sprinkler splashes to fireplace ashes
i gave my blood, sweat, and tears for this
i hosted parties and starved my body
like i'd be saved by a perfect kiss
the jokes weren't funny, i took the money
my friends from home don't know what to say
i looked around in a blood-soaked gown
and i saw something they can't take away
'cause there were pages turned with the bridges burned
everything you lose is a step you take
so, make the friendship bracelets, take the moment and taste it
you've got no reason to be afraid
midnight rain (fav) doesn't have one
question...?
does it feel like everything's just like
second best after that meteor strike?
and what's that that i hear? that you're still with her?
that's nice, i'm sure that's what's suitable
and right, but tonight
vigilante shit (FAVOURITE)
ladies always rise above
ladies know what people want
someone sweet and kind and fun
the lady simply had enough
bejewelled (FAVOURITE)
sapphire tears on my face
sadness became my whole sky
but some guy said my aura's moonstone
just 'cause he was high
and we're dancin' all night
and you can try to change my mind
but you might have to wait in line
what's a girl gonna do?
a diamond's gotta shine
labyrinth (i love this one sm) doesn't have one
karma (fav)
ask me what i learned from all those years
ask me what i earned from all those tears
ask me why so many fade, but i'm still here
(i'm still here, i'm still here)
sweet nothing
industry disrupters and soul deconstructors
and smooth-talking hucksters out glad-handing each other
and the voices that implore, "you should be doing more"
to you, i can admit that i'm too soft for all of it
ooh
mastermind (miss swift is a fucking mastermind) (fav)
no one wanted to play with me as a little kid
so i've been scheming like a criminal ever since
to make them love me and make it seem effortless
this is the first time i've felt the need to confess
and i swear
i'm only cryptic and machiavellian
'cause i care
midnights (3am edition
the great war (fav)
it turned into something bigger
somewhere in the haze, got a sense i'd been betrayed
your finger on my hairpin triggers
soldier down on that icy ground
looked up at me wit honour and truth
broken and blue, so i called off the troops
that was the night i nearly lost you
i really thought i'd lost you
bigger than the whole sky
what could've been, would've been you
what could've been, would've been
what should've been you
what could've been, would've been you
(what could've been, would've been you)
paris
i wanna brainwash you
into loving me forever (already done)
i wanna transport you
to somewhere the cultures clever
confess my truth
in swooping, sloping, cursive letters
let the only flashing lights be the tower at midnight
in my mind
high infidelity (FAVOURITE) doesn't have one
glitch
a brief interruption, a slight malfunction
i'd go back to wanting dudes who give nothing
i thought we had no chance
and that's romance, let's dance
would've, could've, should've (FAVOURITE FOREVER, THIS FUCKING SONG, FUCK YOU JOHN MAYER, WOULD'VE COULD'VE SHOULD'VE BEEN ON THAT SUBMARINE) (i'm calm now)
god rest my soul
i miss who i used to be
the tomb won't close
stained glass windows in my mind
i regret you all the time
i can't let this go
i fight with you in my sleep
the wound won't close
i keep on waiting for a sign
i regret you all the time
dear reader
so i wander through these nights
i prefer hiding in plain sight
my fourth drink in my hand
these desperate prayers of a cursed man
spilling out to you for free
but darling, darling, please
you wouldn't take my word for it if you knew who was talking
if you knew where i was walking
to a house, not a home, all alone 'cause nobody's there
where i pace in my pen and my friends found friends who care
no one sees when you lose when you're playing solitaire
hits different (FAVOURITE)
i find the artefacts, cried over a hat
cursed the space that i needed
i trace the evidence, make it make some sense
why the wound is still bleedin'
you were the one that i loved
don't need another metaphor, it's simple enough
a wrinkle in time like the crease by your eyes
this is why they shouldn't kill off the main guy
dreams of your hair and your stare and sense of belief
in the good in the world, you once believed in me
and i felt you and i held you for a while
bet i could still melt your world
argumentative, antithetical, dream girl
midnights (the late night edition)
you're losing me (from the vault) (FAVOURITE FOREVER THIS BRIDGE IS SO SCREAMABLE, HONESTLY I SOB, I NEED IT ON SPOTIFY RN, I'M BORED OF HAVING EPISODES IN MY PLAYLIST! TAYLOR, I NEED YOU'RE LOSING ME ON SPOTIFY RN!!!)
how long could we be a sad song
'til we were too far gone to bring back to life?
i gave you all my best me's, my endless empathy
and all i did was bleed as i tried to be the bravest soldier
fighting in only your army, frontlines, don't you ignore me
i'm the best thing at this party (you're losin' me)
and i wouldn't marry me either
a pathological people pleaser
who only wanted you to see her
and i'm fadin', thinkin'
"do something babe, say something" (say something)
"lose something babe, risk something" (you're losin' me)
"choose something, babe, i got nothing" (i got nothing)
"to believe, unless you're choosin' me"
