Amazing Lines: Taylor Swift - 1989

I split Taylor's songs into albums for simplicity. I feel I may have gone slightly overboard on this.
Welcome to New York: 
Kaleidoscope of a loud, heart beats under coats
Times Square. I wanted to find one of those walking ones with the umbrellas, but I couldn't get one.

It's a new soundtrack.
I could dance to this
beat, forevermore
Records!

When we first dropped our bags on apartment floors
Took our broken hearts and put them in a drawer
Those flowers are beautiful.

Like any real love,
It's ever-changing
I love the moon.


Blank Space: 
So it's gonna be forever
Or it's gonna go down in flames
The fire is so enchanting; I'm drawn in to it.

'Cause we're young and we're reckless
We'll take this way too far
Would never do that. EVER.


Style: 
Long drive, could end in burning flames or paradise
Not really burning flames there, is it?

Watch it go round and round each time
It's a giraffe!

And we go crashing down,
We come back every time
Pictures of waves is a theme.


Out of the Woods:
You took a Polaroid of us
Then discovered (then discovered)
The rest of the world was black and white
But we were in screaming color
I so love the look of polaroids, and I am glad to see that you can still read the writing.

We were built to fall apart...
Then fall back together
I spent a lot of time darkening these photos, I needed to fit the image to the words.

To move the furniture so we could dance
Every day.

Two paper airplanes flying, flying, flying
I love the look of paper airplanes. They are the perfect image for minimalism. I'm very much a minimalist.

But the monsters turned out to be just trees...
To walk down that road...


All You Had To Do Was Stay:
Then, why'd you had to go and lock me out when I let you in
Such a pretty lock.

I've been picking up the pieces of the mess you made...
This picture almost makes me cry.


Shake It Off:
I'm dancing on my own (dancing on my own),
I'll make the moves up as I go
I'm proud of this one. I've managed to make the photograph look very similar to a painting. I promise it's a photo!


I Wish You Would:
We were a crooked love in a straight line down
Makes you want to run and hide, but it made us turn right back around
The moon looks so lovely.

You always knew how to push my buttons.
I really like this one. The buttons are illuminated, but everything else is dark. It looks so pretty.

Hear my voice in the dark
Deep red lips.


Bad Blood:
Did you have to ruin what was shiny?
Now it's all rusted.
I just love this line.

Salt in the wound, like you're laughing right at me...
Salt flats!

And I don't think we can solve them
Can't solve any math.

Still got scars on my back from your knife.
Not technically on his back, but any time you can make a Harry Potter reference is good.

Band-Aids don't fix bullet holes
They don't.

You say sorry just for show
This theatre looks absolutely amazing.

You live like that, you live with ghosts
The Phantom of the Opera is there, inside your mind.

If you love like that...
Blood runs cold.
Love this line too. Gives me chills.


Wildest Dreams:
He said let's get out of this town
Drive out of the city
Away from the crowds
Always drive away from cities.

Say you'll remember me
Polaroids!

Standing in a nice dress,
Staring at the sunset babe
Red lips and rosy cheeks
Say you'll see me again
Even if it's just in your
Wildest dreams
I really like this one. Simplicity and minimalism.


How You Get The Girl:
Stand there like a ghost,
Shaking from the rain
Flowers.

And then you say,
I want you for worse or for better
I would wait forever and ever
Broke your heart, I'll put it back together
I would wait for ever and ever.
Always have a pocket watch to hand. In case of Chameleon Circuiting.


This Love:
Clear blue water
High tide, came and brought you in
More waves.

Skies grew darker,
current swept you out again
Walk down the railroad.

In silent screams, and wildest dreams
I never dreamed of this
Every scream is silent, in the grand scheme of things.

This love is alive back from the dead
Butterfly soup.

Lanterns burning, flickered in the night
Like Tangled, except real life.

Been losing grip, on sinking ships...
Breathtaking.

These hands had to let it go free
The hands are holding the words.

This love left a permanent mark
This love is glowing in the dark
Hurting my eyes.

Your smile, my ghost
I fell to my knees
Do not be a ghost.

When you're young, you just run
But you come back to what you need
Those mountains are stupendous.


I Know Places:
See a vulture, circling a dark cloud
Lightning and waves, perfection.

Love's a fragile little flame, it could burn out
Yes.

Loose lips...
Sink ships...
All the damn time...
Not this time.
S.O.S.

They take their shots.
We're bulletproof.
Sneaky little Iron Man reference.


Clean:
When the flowers that we'd grown together died of thirst
Dead flowers are so cliche.

You're still all over me,
like a wine-stained dress I can't wear anymore
Don't spill wine.

The sky turned black, like a perfect storm
Chase tornados.

Rain came pouring down,
when I was drowning
that's when I could finally breathe
Dance in the rain, dance in the rain.

When the butterflies turned to dust, they covered my whole room
PIANO!

So I punched a hole in the roof
Thor, is that you?

Let the flood carry away all my pictures of you
More water. I couldn't find any of pictures drowning, but that is such a good visual because the colour bleeds out of them, and it makes one cry.

The water filled my lungs,
I screamed so loud,
but no one heard a thing
More waves.

Just because you're clean don't mean you don't miss it
White dresses in the garden.


Wonderland:
Flashing lights and we
Took a wrong turn, and we
Fell down the rabbit hole
Anyone else thinking about hyperspace?

Didn't they tell us
Don't rush into things
Those flowers are so beautiful.

Haven't you heard what becomes of curious minds
Writ large upon the sky.

We found wonderland
You and I got lost in it
And we pretended it could last forever
We found wonderland
You and I got lost in it
And life was never worse but never better
Wonderland, I am lost in.

But there were strangers watching
And whispers turned to talking
And talking turned to screams
Love this picture, it looks kind of like Southern ladies in Antebellum.

And in the end, in Wonderland, we both went mad
I loved doing this one. Each letter is a different font.


You Are In Love:
Coffee at midnight, the light reflects
The chain on your neck
Coffee is gross. Tea at midnight would be better.

You can hear it in the silence, silence
You can feel it on the way home, way home
You can see it with the lights out, lights out,
You are in love, true love
You are in love
Such peace.

Morning, his place
Burnt toast, Sunday
I hate burnt toast.

And for once you let go of all your fears
and all your ghosts
Simplicity.

You two are dancing in a snow globe, go round and round
I love snow globes with Winnie the Pooh in them.

He keeps the picture of you in his office downtown
Fancy

And why I've spent my whole life
trying to put it into words
So over-saturated, but that's what love is.


New Romantics:
We wait for trains that just aren't coming
Use the Underground and get lost in it.

We show off our different
Scarlet Letters
A

We play dumb, but we know
Exactly what we're doing
EXACTLY

We cry tears of mascara in the bathroom
Better than blood.

'Cause, baby, I could build a castle
Out of all the bricks they threw at me
And every day is like a battle
But every night with us is like a dream
YAY FOR CASTLES!

We sing it proudly
We are too busy dancing
To get knocked off our feet
Black and white movies <3

Baby, we're the new romantics
The best people in life are free
YES!

Please take my hand and
Please take me dancing and

Please leave me stranded,
It's so romantic
Leave me where the waves meet the shore.


I cannot believe I made so many. This also explains why it took ages to finish this post.
