This is one of my favorites. Myself, being a literature teacher, who always loved to get lost in books and imaginary worlds on her head to escape the reality, I really connected with this song from the very first listening ❤
This song was the song I resonated with on the album. I feel like she got me. The daydreaming in between real life , escaping to my own thoughts that make me feel peace in the environment that made me feel hated and vilified. This song doesn’t get a lot of credit but neither do scapegoats and writers and people who live on the edges and don’t fit in so easily. Thank you for sharing your reaction. I enjoyed it a lot
Them in the beginning: she hates the emotional space she is in Taylor: no I want to die. I have tried to romanticise the past but that was worse so I wish I never existed
I don’t think this is a random thing she is experiencing or that she is heartbroken. On a Taylor perspective I think she is saying that she wanted to be a poet but that doesn’t mean anything in this day and age so she became a songwriter. But even then it was not seen as good enough or as something that backed her achievements. So she starts to day dream about being alive during the romanticism era of poetry, where her love for writing would have been appreciated and she realizes that wait that time was horrible too. So she accepts that she wishes she was never born 💔
The base album for TTPD might have instilled a fear in me that Taylor had lost her touch if not for the follow up of The Anthology. TTPD feels surprisingly lazy for Taylor but the majority of the Anthology tracks truly show what she is capable of in songwriting, so many of the songs are beautifully written like this and have lyrics that just make you go "how did she come up with this"
Then you should listen again. It clearly went over your head. There is nothing lazy about TTPD short version, you just didn´t understand it beyond the surface level.
@@yara5502 Whoa there...that's a lot of assumptions you're making there. Taylor and her music are important to me - I wouldn't just shit on it for no reason, nor would I judge it immediately, unfairly. I didn't like 1989 that much at first but after barely five listens I was pretty on board with it, and now I love it. I have listened to TTPD about 20 times and watched almost every reaction on UA-cam, and I still don't like it that much. The sound is dreary and boring, and her lyrics are surprisingly childish to be honest. They're just easy, which is not what I'm used to from Taylor. Regardless, you shouldn't let someone else's opinion give you a knee-jerk reaction like that. If you like it, great. Doesn't matter what I think.

As she is talking to some friends and the question is about, Where would you like to live if not here.
This song just speaks to me so dearly 😭
I listen to mostly Taylor's version. Music 🎵
That is fine but albums 7 through 11 she owns and doesn't have to rerecord them.
I do agree with you guys.
