The Lakes - Tumblr Posts
the lakes by taylor swift x dani & jamie
something something about romanticizing escapism (my thoughts on this mashup are not currently coherent)
Has somebody thought, that Taylor Swift is one of the few modern musicians whose lyrics and songs need to be studied at school? She writes like Shakespeare, but doesn't she deserve to be studied like Shakespeare? I'm not saying that her life is very dramatic and full of scandales,. That we need to know about her every love interest and breakup. No.
What i wanna say is that the meanings of her songs and her ideas, that she puts in them, need to be spread. You can find a song about every issue: the lgbt? We have "You need to calm down" the problems of growing up? We have "Never grow up" your boyfriend didn't show up at your part? Here comes "The moment i knew" And i haven't even metioned "folklore" and "everemore"
Obviously, her songs are needed for children as much as love poems and novelles. Have you heard the lakes? it's a songwriting masterpiece.
Is it romantic how all my elegies eulogize me?
A red rose grew up out of ice frozen ground
With no one around to tweet it.
If not all her songs, but this needs to be, if not studied, but heared. Thank you, @taylorswift
(If you have something to add, please do so. I'd love to hear other's opinions)
My favorite song, forever grateful she gifted this to us 🤍🤍
It’s been one year since we escaped the real world together and imagined ourselves someplace simpler. With tall tall trees and salt air. Where you’re allowed to wear lace nightgowns that make you look like a Victorian ghost every day & no one will side eye you cause no one is around. It’s just you and your imaginary cabin and the stories you make up to pass the time. To say thank you for all you have done to make this album what it was, I wanted to give you the original version of The Lakes. Happy 1 year anniversary to Rebekah, Betty, Inez, James, Augustine, and the lives we all created around them. Happy Anniversary, folklore. 🌿

take me to the lakes where all the poets went to die
i don't belong, and my beloved neither do you
but when did anyone ever fucking belong
I'll be damned if i ever meet a single fucking person who feels like they belong
Oh my god guys...
When Taylor was saying “I know places we won’t be found” she was talking about THE LAKES
She is a child, purple dress fluttering in the wind, silver flower pinned to her hair. Flyaway strands float across her eyes. She's laughing, rambunctious and innocent. Her eyes are alight with youth, her limbs moving in synchronism with the world. She is laughter.
She is a child, red dress, faded and loved, curly hair loose. She is talking, faster and faster, words heard by the wind once and never again. Her fingers weave a story and her feet tap a tale. Her heart on her sleeve and her soul on her tounge. She is words.
She is a child, soft skirt swirling around her ankles, hair just long enough to be plaited. She moves to the beat, a wispy creature of the breeze. Her hands mimic movements and her feet follow steps. The rhythm is in her heart, etched with her very blood. She is dance.
She is not a child, white, starchy uniform, hair tied up and pushed back. She hunches over her books, gliding around ghostlike. Each step a copy of the next, each word waxing and waning like the moon's cycle, each laugh loud and eerie to her ears. She no longer is.
Frozen in marble, preserving a youth lost too soon. Forever smile etched into the cold stone, illusioned with dance in her step, phantom wind fluttering her carved locks, her mouth parted as if to continue a long-forgotten conversation. She was, and now will be forevermore.
reblog and put in the tags your favourite song from folklore, the song you've listened to the most, the song you've listened to the least, the song that keeps getting stuck in your head, and the song that means the most to you 🌹✨

I can't get enough of all the songs on FOLKLORE. The Stories that @taylorswift tells are brilliant. Everytime I listen to the album or any song of it, a new idea pops in my head. Unfortunately I can't deliver all of them but here's another one for THE LAST GREAT AMERICAN DYNASTY.

shoutout to the girls with calamitous love and insurmountable grief. ily
evermore x folklore lyrics as a birthday gift to @dorotheashappiness
