the 1 "We never painted by the numbers, baby, but we were making it count. You know the greatest loves of all time are over now..."
cardigan "A friend to all is a friend to none, chase two girls, lose the one..." and "Leavin' like a father, running like water..."
the last great american dynasty "Filled the pool with champagne and swam with the big names and blew through the money on the boys and the ballet..."
exile "I can see you starin', honey, like he's just your understudy, like you'd get your knuckles bloody for me..."
my tears ricochet "You know I didn't want to have to haunt you, but what a ghostly scene..."
mirrorball "I'm still a believer, but I don't know why. I've never been a natural, all I do is try, try, try..."
seven "And I've been meaning to tell you, I think your house is haunted..."
august "And I can see us twisted in bedsheets. August sipped away like a bottle of wine, 'cause you were never mine..."
this is me trying "They told me all of my cages were mental. So I got wasted like all my potential..."
illicit affairs "Don't call me "kid," don't call me "baby," look at this idiotic fool that you made me. You taught me a secret language I can't speak with anyone else and you know damn well, for you, I would ruin myself..."
invisible string "Cold was the steel of my axe to grind for the boys who broke my heart. Now I send their babies presents..."
mad woman "And women like hunting witches too, doing your dirtiest work for you. It's obvious that wanting me dead has really brought you two together..."
epiphany "Only twenty minutes to sleep, but you dream of some epiphany..."
betty "You heard the rumors from Inez, you can't believe a word she says. Most times, but this time it was true. The worst thing that I ever did, was what I did to you..."
peace "All these people think love's for show, but I would die for you in secret..."
hoax "You knew it still hurts underneath my scars from when they pulled me apart, but what you did was just as dark..."
the lakes "What should be over burrowed under my skin in heart-stopping waves of hurt..."

the 1: I persist and resist the temptation to ask you, if one thing had been different, would everything be different today & and if my wishes came true, it would've been you
cardigan: I knew you'd haunt all of my what-ifs
the last great american dynasty: filled the pool with champagne, and swam with the big names, and blew through the money on the boys, and the ballet (this one is really because of how she sings it)
exile: you're not my homeland anymore so what am I defending now
my tears ricochet: even on my worst day, did I deserve, babe, all the hell you gave me & and I still talk to you (when I'm screaming at the sky) and when you can't sleep at night (you hear my stolen lullabies) (also because of how she sings it)
mirrorball: I'm still trying everything to keep you looking at me & and when I break, it's in a million pieces
seven: sweet tea in the summer, cross your heart, won't tell no other (solely because it appeals to my little southern heart) & and I've been meaning to tell you I think your house is haunted, your dad is always mad and that must be why, and I think you should come live with me and we can be pirates, then you won't have to cry, or hide in the closet
august: but I can see us lost in the memory, August slipped away into a moment in time, 'cause it was never mine
this is me trying: I've been having a hard time adjusting, I had the shiniest wheels, now they're rusting & they told me all of my cages were mental so I got wasted like all my potential
illicit affairs: you taught me a secret language I can't speak with anyone else
invisible string: time, curious time, gave me no compasses, gave me no signs, were there clues I didn't see & time, mystical time, cutting me open, then healing me fine & time, wondrous time, gave me the blues and then purple-pink skies
mad woman: every time you call me crazy, I get more crazy, what about that, and when you say I seem angry, I get more angry
epiphany: and some things you just can't speak about & just one single glimpse of relief to make some sense of what you've seen
betty: if you kiss me, will it be just like I dreamed it
peace: would it be enough if I could never give you peace & give you the silence that only comes when two people understand each other & I'd give you my sunshine, give you my best, but the rain is always gonna come if you're standing with me
hoax: don't want no other shade of blue but you, no other sadness in the world would do

cardigan-A friend to all is a friend to none (because like, tea)
the last great american dynasty-Who knows, if she never showed up, what could've been?
exile-I'm not your problem any more, so who am I offending now?
my tears ricochet-You had to kill me, but it killed you just the same
mirrorball-I've never been a natural, all I do is try, try, try
seven-And though I can't recall your face, I still got love for you
august-Back when I was living for the hope of it all
this is me trying-I was so ahead of the curve, the curve became a sphere
illicit affairs-A drug that only worked the first few hundred times
invisible string-Hell was the journey but it brought me heaven
mad woman-Every time you call me crazy, I get more crazy, what about that?
epiphany-Just one single glimpse of relief to make some sense of what you've seen
betty-Slept next to her, but I dreamt of you all summer long
peace-I'd give you my sunshine, give you my best but the rain is always gonna come if you're standing with me
hoax-Your faithless love's the only hoax I believe in

Hello, I am new to this forum, (but a swiftie since 2010). I loooove folklore so much and want to share my favorite lyrics from each song with you guys!
the 1: Rosé flowing with your chosen family
And it would've been sweet
If it could've been me
cardigan: I knew you'd miss me once the thrill expired
And you'd be standin' in my front porch light
the last great american dynasty:
Fifty years is a long time
Holiday House sat quietly on that beach
Free of women with madness, their men and bad habits
And then it was bought by me.
(The whole bridge is a savage, in my opinion: the best on the album!)
exile: What I particularly like about this song, is the 'I gave so many signs' sung by Taylor repeatedly. It just gives you goosebumps. We all felt that way before.
my tears ricochet: I didn't have it in myself to go with grace.
mirrorball: Hush, when no one is around, my dear
You'll find me on my tallest tiptoes
Spinning in my highest heels, love
Shining just for you
seven: Passed down like folk songs
The love lasts so long
august: So much for summer love and saying "us"
'Cause you weren't mine to lose
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.
illicit affairs: They show their truth one single time
But they lie and they lie and they lie
A million little times.
invisible string: Time, wondrous time
Gave me the blues and then purple-pink skies
mad woman: Watching you climb, watching you climb
Over people like me
The master of spin has a couple side flings
Good wives always know
She should be mad, should be scathing like me, but
No one likes a mad woman
epiphany: Something med school did not cover
Someone's daughter, someone's mother
Holds your hand through plastic now
"Doc, I think she's crashing out" (As a young doctor myself, who had a hard time with patients during this pandemic, this one hit really hard)
betty: The worst thing that I ever did, is what I did to you.
peace: Give you my wild, give you a child.
hoax: You knew it still hurts underneath my scars
From when they pulled me apart
But what you did was just as dark

The 1: "In my defence, I have none/ For digging up the grave another time/ But it would've been fun/ If you would've been the one"
Cardigan: "You drew stars around my scars/ Now I'm bleeding"
The Last Great American Dynasty: "There goes the maddest woman this town has ever seen/ She had a marvellous time ruining everything"
Exile: "Those eyes add insult to injury"
My Tears Ricochet: "And you can aim for my heart, go for blood/ But you would still miss me in your bones"
Mirrorball: "I'm a mirrorball/ I can change everything to fit in"
Seven: "Pack your dolls and a sweater/ We'll move to India forever/ Passed down like folk songs/ Our love lasts so long"
August: "August sipped away/ Like a bottle of wine/ 'Cause you were never mine"
This is Me Trying: "Pourin' out my heart to a stranger/ But I didn't pour the whiskey"
Illicit Affairs: "Leave the perfume on the shelf/ That you picked out just for him/ So you leave no trace behind/ Like you don't even exist"
Invisible Strings: "Hell was the journey but it brought me heaven"
Mad Woman: "And women like hunting witches too/ Doing your dirtiest work for you/ It's obvious that wanting me dead/ Has really brought you two together"
Epiphany: "And some things you just can't speak about"
Betty: "Betty, I know where it all went wrong/ Your favourite song was playing/ From the far side of the gym/ I was nowhere to be found/ I hate the crowds, you know that/ Plus, I saw you dance with him"
Peace: "But there's robbers to the East/ Clowns to the West/ I'd give you my sunshine/ Give you my best"
Hoax: You knew it still hurts underneath my scars/From when they pulled me apart/ But what you did was just as dark/ Darling, this was just as hard/ As when they pulled me apart"
The Lakes: "What should be over burrowed under my skin/ In heart-stopping waves of hurt"
