Car rides to Malibu
Strawberry ice cream, one spoon for two
And tradin jackets
Laughin’ bout how small it looks on you
Watching reruns of Glee
Bein annoying, singin’ in harmony
I bet shes braggin to all her friends, sayin youre so unique, hmm
So when you gonna tell her that we did that, too?
She thinks its special, but... |
Vintage tee, brand new phone
High heels on cobblestones
When you are young, they assume you know nothing
Sequin smile, black lipstick
Sensual politics
When you are young, they assume you know nothing
But I knew you
Dancin in your Levis
Drunk under a streetlight, I
I knew you
Hand under my sweatshirt
Baby, kiss it bette... |
I can see you standing, honey
With his arms around your body
Laughin, but the jokes not funny at all
And it took you five whole minutes
To pack us up and leave me with it
Holdin all this love out here in the hall
I think Ive seen this film before
And I didnt like the ending
Youre not my homeland anymore
So what am I de... |
We could leave the Christmas lights up til January
And this is our place, we make the rules
And theres a dazzling haze, a mysterious way about you, dear
Have I known you twenty seconds or twenty years?
Can I go where you go?
Can we always be this close?
Forever and ever, ah
Take me out, and take me home
Youre my, my, m... |
Im doing good, Im on some new shit
Been saying yes instead of no
I thought I saw you at the bus stop, I didnt though
I hit the ground running each night
I hit the Sunday matinée
You know the greatest films of all time were never made
I guess you never know, never know
And if you wanted me, you really shouldve showed
An... |
I dont like your little games
Dont like your tilted stage
The role you made me play
Of the fool, no, I dont like you
I dont like your perfect crime
How you laugh when you lie
You said the gun was mine
Isnt cool, no, I dont like you
But I got smarter, I got harder in the nick of time
Honey, I rose up from the dead, I d... |
Betty, I wont make assumptions
About why you switched your homeroom, but
I think its cause of me
Betty, one time I was riding on my skateboard
When I passed your house
Its like I couldnt breathe
You heard the rumors from Inez
You cant believe a word she says
Most times, but this time it was true
The worst thing that I ... |
Salt air, and the rust on your door
I never needed anything more
Whispers of Are you sure?
Never have I ever before
But I can see us lost in the memory
August slipped away into a moment in time
Cause it was never mine
And I can see us twisted in bedsheets
August sipped away like a bottle of wine
Cause you were never mi... |
I wanna be your end game
I wanna be your first string
I wanna be your A-Team
I wanna be your end game, end game
Big reputation, big reputation
Ooh, you and me, we got big reputations, ah
And you heard about me, ooh
I got some big enemies
Big reputation, big reputation
Ooh, you and me would be a big conversation, ah

You are somebody that I dont know
But youre takin shots at me like its Patrón
And Im just like, damn, its 7 AM
Say it in the street, thats a knock-out
But you say it in a Tweet, thats a cop-out
And Im just like, Hey, are you okay?
And I aint tryna mess with your self-expression
But Ive learned a lesson that stressin an... |
I promise that youll never find another like me
I know that Im a handful, baby, uh
I know I never think before I jump
And youre the kind of guy the ladies want
I know that I went psycho on the phone
I never leave well enough alone
And troubles gonna follow where I go
But one of these things is not like the others
Like ... |
Nice to meet you, where you been?
I could show you incredible things
Magic, madness, heaven, sin
Saw you there, and I thought
Oh my God, look at that face
You look like my next mistake
Loves a game, wanna play?
Ayy
New money, suit and tie
I can read you like a magazine
Aint it funny? Rumors fly
And I know you heard abo... |
Knew he was a killer first time that I saw him
Wondered how many girls he had loved and left haunted
But if hes a ghost, then I can be a phantom
Holdin him for ransom, some
Some boys are tryin too hard, he dont try at all though
Younger than my exes, but he act like such a man, so
I see nothing better, I keep him forev... |
You booked the night train for a reason
So you could sit there in this hurt
Bustling crowds or silent sleepers
Youre not sure which is worse
Because I dropped your hand while dancing
Left you out there standing
Crestfallen on the landing
Champagne problems
Your moms ring in your pocket
My picture in your wallet
Your he... |
Im like the water when your ship rolled in that night
Rough on the surface, but you cut through like a knife
And if it was an open-shut case
I never wouldve known from that look on your face
Lost in your current like a priceless wine
The more that you say, the less I know
Wherever you stray, I follow
Im begging for you... |
We gather here, we line up, weepin in a sunlit room
And if Im on fire, youll be made of ashes, too
Even on my worst day, did I deserve, babe
All the hell you gave me?
Cause I loved you, I swear I loved you
Til my dying day
I didnt have it in myself to go with grace
And youre the hero flying around, saving face
And if I... |
Green was the color of the grass
Where I used to read at Centennial Park
I used to think I would meet somebody there
Teal was the color of your shirt
When you were sixteen at the yogurt shop
You used to work at to make a little money
Time, curious time
Gave me no compasses, gave me no signs
Were there clues I didnt see... |
Fever dream high in the quiet of the night
You know that I caught it
Bad, bad boy, shiny toy with a price
You know that I bought it
Killing me slow, out the window
Im always waiting for you to be waiting below
Devils roll the dice, angels roll their eyes
What doesnt kill me makes me want you more
And its new, the sha... |
Rebekah rode up on the afternoon train, it was sunny
Her saltbox house on the coast took her mind off St. Louis
Bill was the heir to the Standard Oil name and money
And the town said, How did a middle-class divorcée do it?
The wedding was charming, if a little gauche
Theres only so far new money goes
They picked out a ... |
This aint for the best
My reputations never been worse, so
You must like me for me...
We cant make
Any promises now, can we, babe?
But you can make me a drink
Dive bar on the East Side, where you at?
Phone lights up my nightstand in the black
Come here, you can meet me in the back
Dark jeans and your Nikes, look at you... |
My castle crumbled overnight
I brought a knife to a gunfight
They took the crown, but its alright
All the liars are calling me one
Nobodys heard from me for months
Im doin better than I ever was
Cause
My babys fit like a daydream
Walking with his head down
Im the one hes walking to
So call it what you want, yeah
Call i... |
Please picture me in the trees
I hit my peak at seven
Feet in the swing over the creek
I was too scared to jump in
But I, I was high in the sky
With Pennsylvania under me
Are there still beautiful things?
Sweet tea in the summer
Cross your heart, wont tell no other
And though I can’t recall your face
I still got love f... |
Midnight
You come and pick me up, no headlights
A long drive
Could end in burning flames or paradise
Fade into view, oh
Its been a while since I have even heard from you
And I should just tell you to leave, cause I
Know exactly where it leads, but I
Watch us go round and round each time
You got that James Dean daydream... |
Cause, baby, now weve got bad blood
You know it used to be mad love
So take a look what youve done
‘Cause, baby, now weve got bad blood , hey!
I cant take it back, look where Im at
We was OG like D.O.C., remember that?
My TLC was quite OD, ID my facts
Now POV of you and me, similar Iraq
I dont hate you, but I hat... |
Make sure nobody sees you leave
Hood over your head, keep your eyes down
Tell your friends youre out for a run
You’ll be flushed when you return
Take the road less traveled by
Tell yourself you can always stop
What started in beautiful rooms
Ends with meetings in parking lots
And thats the thing about illicit affairs
A... |
Been sitting eyes wide open behind these four walls, hoping youd call
Its just a cruel existence like its no point hoping at all
Baby, baby, I feel crazy
Up all night, all night and every day
Give me something, oh, but you say nothing
What is happening to me?
I dont wanna live forever, cause I know Ill be living in vai... |
Ive been having a hard time adjusting
I had the shiniest wheels, now theyre rusting
I didnt know if youd care if I came back
I have a lot of regrets about that
Pulled the car off the road to the lookout
Couldve followed my fears all the way down
And maybe I dont quite know what to say
But Im here in your doorway
I just... |
We were both young when I first saw you
I close my eyes, and the flashback starts
Im standing there
On a balcony in summer air
See the lights, see the party, the ball gowns
See you make your way through the crowd
And say, Hello
Little did I know
That you were Romeo, you were throwing pebbles
And my daddy said, Stay awa... |
Gray November
Ive been down since July
Motion capture
Put me in a bad light
I replay my footsteps on each stepping stone
Trying to find the one where I went wrong
Writing letters
Addressed to the fire
And I was catching my breath
Staring out an open window
Catching my death
And I couldnt be sure
I had a feeling so pecu... |
Gorgeous
You should take it as a compliment
That I got drunk and made fun of the way you talk
You should think about the consequence
Of your magnetic field being a little too strong
And I got a boyfriend, hes older than us
Hes in the club doin I dont know what
Youre so cool, it makes me hate you so much
Whisky on ice, ... |
Honey, when Im above the trees
I see this for what it is
But now Im right down in it, all the years Ive given
Is just shit were dividin up
Showed you all of my hiding spots
I was dancing when the music stopped
And in the disbelief, I cant face reinvention
I havent met the new me yet
Therell be happiness after you
But t... |
Our coming-of-age has come and gone
Suddenly this summer, its clear
I never had the courage of my convictions
As long as danger is near
And its just around the corner, darlin
Cause it lives in me
No, I could never give you peace
But Im a fire and Ill keep your brittle heart warm
If your cascade, ocean wave blues come
A... |
What did you think Id say to that?
Does a scorpion sting when fighting back?
They strike to kill, and you know I will
You know I will
What do you sing on your drive home?
Do you see my face in the neighbors lawn?
Does she smile?
Or does she mouth, Fuck you forever?
Every time you call me crazy, I get more crazy
What ab... |
I want you to know
Im a mirrorball
Ill show you every version of yourself tonight
Ill get you out on the floor
Shimmering beautiful
And when I break, its in a million pieces
Hush, when no one is around, my dear
Youll find me on my tallest tiptoes
Spinning in my highest heels, love
Shining just for you
Hush, I know they... |
I sit and watch you reading with your head low
I wake and watch you breathing with your eyes closed
I sit and watch you
I notice everything you do or dont do
Youre so much older and wiser, and I
I wait by the door like Im just a kid
Use my best colors for your portrait
Lay the table with the fancy shit
And watch you to... |
I would be complex, I would be cool
Theyd say I played the field before I found someone to commit to
And that would be okay for me to do
Every conquest I had made would make me more of a boss to you
I’d be a fearless leader
Id be an alpha type
When everyone believes ya
Whats that like?
I’m so sick of running as fast as... |
Dont blame me, love made me crazy
If it doesnt, you aint doin it right
Lord, save me, my drug is my baby
Ill be usin for the rest of my life
Ive been breakin hearts a long time
And toyin with them older guys
Just playthings for me to use
Something happened for the first time
In the darkest little paradise
Shakin, pacin... |
I never trust a narcissist, but they love me
So I play em like a violin
And I make it look oh-so-easy
Cause for every lie I tell them, they tell me three
This is how the world works
Now all he thinks about is me
I can feel the flames on my skin
Crimson red paint on my lips
If a man talks shit, then I owe him nothing
I ... |
Our secret moments in a crowded room
They got no idea about me and you
There is an indentation in the shape of you
Made your mark on me, a golden tattoo
All of this silence and patience, pining and anticipation
My hands are shaking from holding back from you
Ha, ah, ah
All of this silence and patience, pining and despe... |
He did it
He did it
Estes a friend of mine
We meet up every Tuesday night for dinner and a glass of wine
Estes been losin sleep
Her husbands actin different, and it smells like infidelity
She says, That aint my Merlot on his mouth
That aint my jewelry on our joint account
No, there aint no doubt
I think Im gonna call h... |
Hows one to know?
Id meet you where the spirit meets the bones
In a faith-forgotten land
In from the snow
Your touch brought forth an incandescent glow
Tarnished but so grand
And the old widow goes to the stone every day
But I dont, I just sit here and wait
Grieving for the living
Oh, goddamn
My pain fits in the palm o... |
Gleaming, twinkling
Eyes like sinking ships on waters
So inviting, I almost jump in
But I dont like a gold rush, gold rush
I dont like anticipatin my face in a red flush
I dont like that anyone would die to feel your touch
Everybody wants you
Everybody wonders what it would be like to love you
Walk past, quick brush
I ... |
My only one
My smoking gun
My eclipsed sun
This has broken me down
My twisted knife
My sleepless night
My winless fight
This has frozen my ground
Stood on the cliffside screaming, Give me a reason
Your faithless loves the only hoax I believe in
Dont want no other shade of blue but you
No other sadness in the world woul... |
No, nothing good starts in a getaway car
It was the best of times, the worst of crimes
I struck a match and blew your mind
But I didnt mean it
And you didn’t see it
The ties were black, the lies were white
In shades of gray in candlelight
I wanted to leave him
I needed a reason
X marks the spot where we fell apart
He p... |
I walked through the door with you, the air was cold
But something bout it felt like home somehow
And I left my scarf there at your sisters house
And youve still got it in your drawer, even now
Oh, your sweet disposition and my wide-eyed gaze
Were singing in the car, getting lost upstate
Autumn leaves falling down like... |
Keep your helmet, keep your life, son
Just a flesh wound, heres your rifle
Crawling up the beaches now
Sir, I think hes bleeding out
And some things you just cant speak about
With you I serve, with you I fall down, down
Watch you breathe in, watch you breathing out, out
Something med school did not cover
Someones daugh... |
Called you on the phone today
Just to ask you how you were
All I did was speak normally
Somehow, I still struck a nerve
You got me fucked up in the head, boy
Never doubted myself so much
Like, am I pretty? Am I fun, boy?
I hate that I give you power over that kinda stuff
Cause its always one step forward and three step... |
Combat, Im ready for combat
I say I dont want that, but what if I do?
Cause cruelty wins in the movies
Ive got a hundred thrown-out speeches I almost said to you
Easy they come, easy they go
I jump from the train, I ride off alone
I never grew up, its getting so old
Help me hold on to you
Ive been the archer, Ive been ... |
Mr. Perfect face
Mr. Here to stay
Mr. Looked me in the eye and told me you would never go away
Everything was right
Mr. Ive been waitin for you all my life
Mr. Every single day until the end, I will be by your side
But that was when I got to know Mr. Change of heart
Mr. Leaves me all alone, I fall apart
It takes everyt... |
You know I adore you, Im crazier for you
Than I was at 16, lost in a film scene
Waving homecoming queens, marching band playing
Im lost in the lights
American glory faded before me
Now Im feeling hopeless, ripped up my prom dress
Running through rose thorns, I saw the scoreboard
And ran for my life
No cameras catch my... |
We can go driving in, on my scooter
Uh, you know, just round London
Oh, Id...
I love my hometown as much as Motown, I love SoCal
And you know I love Springsteen, faded blue jeans, Tennessee whiskey
But something happened, I heard him laughing
I saw the dimples first and then I heard the accent
They say home is where th... |
’Cause baby, now weve got bad blood
You know it used to be mad love
So take a look what youve done
’Cause baby, now weve got bad blood, hey!
Now weve got problems
And I dont think we can solve em
You made a really deep cut
And baby, now weve got bad blood, hey!
Did you have to do this?
I was thinking that you could be ... |
We were in the backseat
Drunk on something stronger than the drinks in the bar
I rent a place on Cornelia Street
I say casually in the car
We were a fresh page on the desk
Filling in the blanks as we go
As if the street lights pointed in an arrow head
Leading us home
And I hope I never lose you, hope it never ends
Id n... |
He said, Lets get out of this town
Drive out of this city, away from the crowds
I thought, Heaven cant help me now
Nothing lasts forever
But this is gonna take me down
Hes so tall and handsome as hell
Hes so bad, but he does it so well
I can see the end as it begins
My one condition is
Say youll remember me
Standin in ... |
If I wanted to know who you were hanging with
While I was gone, I wouldve asked you
Its the kind of cold, fogs up windshield glass
But I felt it when I passed you
Theres an ache in you, put there by the ache in me
But if its all the same to you
Its the same to me
So we could call it even
You could call me babe for the ... |
My love was as cruel as the cities I lived in
Everyone looked worse in the light
There are so many lines that Ive crossed unforgiven
Ill tell you the truth, but never goodbye
I dont wanna look at anything else now that I saw you
I dont wanna think of anything else now that I thought of you
Ive been sleeping so long in ... |
Im perfectly fine, I live on my own
I made up my mind, Im better off bein alone
We met a few weeks ago
Now you try on callin me Baby like tryin on clothes
Salute to me, Im your American queen
And you move to me like Im a Motown beat
And we rule the kingdom inside my room
Cause all the boys and their expensive cars
With... |
Is it romantic how all my elegies eulogize me?
Im not cut out for all these cynical clones
These hunters with cell phones
Take me to the Lakes where all the poets went to die
I dont belong and, my beloved, neither do you
Those Windermere peaks look like a perfect place to cry
Im setting off, but not without my muse
Wha... |
My, my, my, my
My, my, my, my
My, my, my, my
My, my, my, my
My, my, my, my
My, my, my, my
My, my, my, my
My, my, my, my
Saying goodbye is death by a thousand cuts
Flashbacks waking me up
I get drunk, but its not enough
’Cause the morning comes and youre not my baby
I look through the windows of this love
Even though we... |
How many days did I spend thinking
Bout how you did me wrong, wrong, wrong?
Lived in the shade you were throwing
Til all of my sunshine was gone, gone, gone
And I couldnt get away from ya
In my feelings more than Drake, so yeah
Your name on my lips, tongue-tied
Free rent, living in my mind
But then something happened o... |
Theres glitter on the floor after the party
Girls carrying their shoes down in the lobby
Candle wax and Polaroids on the hardwood floor
You and me from the night before, but
Don’t read the last page
But I stay when youre lost and Im scared and you’re turning away
I want your midnights
But Ill be cleaning up bottles wit... |
The moon is high
Like your friends were the night that we first met
Went home and tried to stalk you on the internet
Now Ive read all of the books beside your bed
The wine is cold
Like the shoulder that I gave you in the street
Cat and mouse for a month or two or three
Now I wake up in the night and watch you breathe
K... |
Break my soul in two looking for you
But youre right here
If I cant relate to you anymore
Then who am I related to?
And if this is the long haul
Howd we get here so soon?
Did I close my fist around something delicate?
Did I shatter you?
And Im sitting on a bench in Coney Island
Wondering where did my baby go?
The fast ... |
See you in the dark
All eyes on you, my magician
All eyes on us
You make everyone disappear, and
Cut me into pieces
Gold cage, hostage to my feelings
Back against the wall
Trippin, trip-trippin when youre gone
Cause we break down a little
But when you get me alone, its so simple
Cause baby, I know what you know
We can ... |
It was so nice throwing big parties
Jump into the pool from the balcony
Everyone swimming in a champagne sea
And there are no rules when you show up here
Bass beat rattling the chandelier
Feeling so Gatsby for that whole year
So whyd you have to rain on my parade?
Im shaking my head and locking the gates
This is why we... |
We were crazy to think
Crazy to think that this could work
Remember how I said Id die for you?
We were stupid to jump
In the ocean separating us
Remember how I’d fly to you?
And I cant talk to you when youre like this
Staring out the window like I’m not your favorite town
Im New York City
I still do it for you, babe
Th... |
And the tennis court was covered up
With some tent-like thing
And you asked me to dance
But I said, Dancin is a dangerous game
Oh, I thought
This is gonna be one of those things
Now I know
Im never gonna love again
Ive got some tricks up my sleeve
Takes one to know one
Youre a cowboy like me
Never wanted love
Just a fa... |
Hey, Dorothea, do you ever stop and think about me?
When we were younger down in the park
Honey, making a lark of the misery
You got shiny friends since you left town
A tiny screens the only place I see you now
And I got nothing but well wishes for ya
Ooh, this place is the same as it ever was
Ooh, but you wont like it... |
I think he knows
His footprints on the sidewalk
Lead to where I cant stop
Go there every night
I think he knows
His hands around a cold glass
Make me wanna know that
Body like its mine
He got that boyish look that I like in a man
I am an architect, Im drawing up the plans
Its like Im 17, nobody understands
No one under... |
I, I loved you in secret
First sight, yeah, we love without reason
Oh, twenty-five years old
Oh, how were you to know? And
My, my love had been frozen
Deep blue, but you painted me golden
Oh, and you held me close
Oh, how was I to know? I–
Couldve spent forever with your hands in my pockets
Picture of your face in an i... |
I blew things out of proportion, now youre blue
Put you in jail for something you didn’t do
I pinned your hands behind your back, oh
Thought I had reason to attack, but no
Fighting with a true love is boxing with no gloves
Chemistry til it blows up, til there’s no us
Whyd I have to break what I love so much?
Its on you... |
Fatefully
I tried to pick my battles til the battle picked me
Misery
Like the war of words I shouted in my sleep
And you passed right by
I was in the alley, surrounded on all sides
The knife cuts both ways
If the shoe fits, walk in it til your high heels break
And I fell from the pedestal
Right down the rabbit hole
Lon... |
The buttons of my coat were tangled in my hair
In doctors office lighting, I didnt tell you I was scared
That was the first time we were there
Holy orange bottles, each night, I pray to you
Desperate people find faith, so now I pray to Jesus too
And I say to you...
Ooh-ah
Soon, youll get better
Ooh-ah
Soon, youll get b... |
Never be so kind
You forget to be clever
Never be so clever
You forget to be kind
And if I didnt know better
Id think you were talking to me now
If I didnt know better
Id think you were still around
What died didnt stay dead
What died didnt stay dead
Youre alive, youre alive in my head
What died didnt stay dead
What di... |
The drought was the very worst
When the flowers that wed grown together died of thirst
It was months and months of back and forth
Youre still all over me
Like a wine-stained dress I cant wear anymore
Hung my head as I lost the war
And the sky turned black like a perfect storm
Rain came pouring down
When I was drownin... |
Its been a long time
And seeing the shape of your name
Still spells out pain
It wasnt right
The way it all went down
Looks like you know that now
Yes, I got your letter
Yes, Im doing better
It cut deep to know ya, right to the bone
Yes, I got your letter
Yes, Im doing better
I know that its over, I dont need your

Youre on the phone with your girlfriend, shes upset
Shes going off about something that you said
Cause she doesnt get your humor like I do
Im in the room, its a typical Tuesday night
Im listening to the kind of music she doesnt like
And shell never know your story like I do
But she wears short skirts, I wear T-shirts
S... |
Looking at it now
It all seems so simple
We were lying on your couch
I remember
You took a Polaroid of us
Then discovered
The rest of the world was black and white
But we were in screaming color
And I remember thinking
Are we out of the woods yet? Are we out of the woods yet?
Are we out of the woods yet? Are we out of... |
I stay out too late
Got nothing in my brain
Thats what people say, mmm-mmm
Thats what people say, mmm-mmm
I go on too many dates
But I cant make them stay
At least thats what people say, mmm-mmm
Thats what people say, mmm-mmm
But I keep cruisin
Cant stop, wont stop movin
Its like I got this music in my mind

Baby, this is what you came for
Lightning strikes every time she moves
And everybodys watchin her
But shes lookin at
You, ooh-ooh, you, ooh-ooh
You, ooh-ooh, you, ooh-ooh

Friends break up, friends get married
Strangers get born, strangers get buried
Trends change, rumors fly through new skies
But Im right where you left me
Matches burn after the other
Pages turn and stick to each other
Wages earned and lessons learned
But I, Im right where you left me
Help, Im still at the restaurant
St... |
Ooh
Ooh
School bell rings, walk me home
Sidewalk chalk covered in snow
Lost my gloves, you give me one
Wanna hang out? Yeah, sounds like fun
Video games, you pass me a note
Sleeping in tents
Its nice to have a friend
Its nice to have a friend
Light pink sky, up on the roof
Sun sinks down, no curfew

When she fell, she fell apart.
Cracked her bones on the pavement she once decorated
as a child with sidewalk chalk
When she crashed, her clothes disintegrated and blew away
with the winds that took all of her fair-weather friends
When she looked around, her skin was spattered with ink
forming the words of a thousand vo... |
Once upon a time, a few mistakes ago
I was in your sights, you got me alone
You found me, you found me, you found me
I guess you didnt care, and I guess I liked that
And when I fell hard, you took a step back
Without me, without me, without me
And hes long gone when hes next to me
And I realize the blame is on me
Cause... |
When the dinner is cold and the chatter gets old
You ask for the tab
Or that moment again, hes insisting that friends
Look at each other like that
When the words of a sister come back in whispers
That prove she was not in fact what she seemed
Not a twin from your dreams
Shes a crook who was caught
That old familiar bod... |
I remember when we broke up the first time
Saying, This is it, Ive had enough, cause like
We hadnt seen each other in a month
When you said you needed space
Then you come around again and say
Baby, I miss you and I swear Im gonna change, trust me
Remember how that lasted for a day?
I say, I hate you, we break up, you ... |
Were all bored, were all so tired of everything
We wait for trains that just arent coming
We show off our different scarlet letters
Trust me, mine is better
Were so young, but were on the road to ruin
We play dumb, but we know exactly what were doing
We cry tears of mascara in the bathroom
Honey, life is just a classro... |
Once the last drop of rain has dried off the pavement
Shouldnt I find a stain, but I never do
The way the tires turn stones on old county roads
They leave em muddy underneath, reminds me of you
You find graffiti on the walls of old bathroom stalls
You know, you can scratch it right off, its how it used to be
But like t... |
It feels like a perfect night
To dress up like hipsters
And make fun of our exes, uh-uh, uh-uh
It feels like a perfect night
For breakfast at midnight
To fall in love with strangers, uh-uh, uh-uh
Yeah
Were happy, free, confused, and lonely at the same time
Its miserable and magical, oh, yeah
Tonights the night when we ... |
Flashing lights and we
Took a wrong turn and we
Fell down a rabbit hole
You held on tight to me
Cause nothings as it seems
And spinning out of control
Didnt they tell us dont rush into things?
Didnt you flash your green eyes at me?
Havent you heard what becomes of curious minds?
Ooh, didnt it all seem new and exciting?... |
One look, dark room
Meant just for you
Time moved too fast, you play it back
Buttons on a coat, lighthearted joke
No proof, not much, but you saw enough
Small talk, he drives
Coffee at midnight
The light reflects the chain on your neck
He says, Look up
And your shoulders brush
No proof, one touch, but you felt enough
Y... |
Clear blue water
High tide came and brought you in
And I could go on and on, on and on and I will
Skies grew darker
Currents swept you out again
And you were just gone and gone, gone and gone
In silent screams and wildest dreams
I never dreamed of this
This love is good, this love is bad
This love is alive back from th... |
Long were the nights when
My days once revolved around you
Counting my footsteps
Praying the floor wont fall through... again
My mother accused me of losing my mind
But I swore I was fine
You paint me a blue sky
Then go back and turn it to rain
And I lived in your chess game
But you changed the rules everyday
Wonderin ... |
We could leave the Christmas lights up til January
And this is our place, we make the rules
And theres a dazzling haze, a mysterious way about you, dear
Have I known you 20 seconds or 20 years?
Can I go where you go?
Can we always be this close?
Forever and ever, ah
Take me out, and take me home
Youre my, my, my, my lo... |
I tapped on your window on your darkest night
The shape of you was jagged and weak
There was nowhere for me to stay, but I stayed anyway
And if I wouldve known how many pieces you had crumbled into
I might have let them lay
Are you really gonna talk about timing in times like these?
And let all your damage damage me
An... |
Im walking fast through the traffic lights
Busy streets and busy lives
And all we know is touch and go
We are alone with our changing minds
We fall in love til it hurts or bleeds
Or fades in time
And I never
Saw you coming
And I’ll never
Be the same
You come around and the armor falls
Pierce the room like a cannonbal... |
All I knew this morning when I woke
Is I know something now
Know something now I didnt before
And all Ive seen since 18 hours ago
Is green eyes and freckles and your smile
In the back of my mind, making me feel like
I just wanna know you better
Know you better, know you better now
I just wanna know you better
Know you ... |
I know I’m probably better off on my own
Than lovin a man who didn’t know
What he had when he had it
And I see the permanent damage you did to me
Never again, I just wish I could forget when it was magic
I wish it wasn’t 4am, standing in the mirror
Saying to myself, you know you had to do it
I know the bravest thing I ... |
Took a deep breath in the mirror
He didnt like it when I wore high heels, but I do
Turn the lock and put my headphones on
He always said he didnt get this song but I do, I do
Walked in, expecting youd be late
But you got here early and you stand and wave
I walk to you
You pull my chair out and help me in
And you dont k... |
I was reminiscing just the other day
While having coffee all alone, and Lord, it took me away
Back to a first-glance feeling on New York time
Back when you fit in my poems like a perfect rhyme
Took off faster than a green light, go
Hey, you skip the conversation when you already know
I left a note on the door with a jo... |

How to use
How to load this dataset directly with the datasets library:
from datasets import load_dataset
dataset = load_dataset("huggingartists/taylor-swift")
Dataset Structure
An example of 'train' looks as follows.
This example was too long and was cropped:
{
"text": "Look, I was gonna go easy on you\nNot to hurt your feelings\nBut I'm only going to get this one chance\nSomething's wrong, I can feel it..."
}
Data Fields
The data fields are the same among all splits.
text: astringfeature.
Data Splits
| train | validation | test |
|---|---|---|
| 762 | - | - |
'Train' can be easily divided into 'train' & 'validation' & 'test' with few lines of code:
from datasets import load_dataset, Dataset, DatasetDict
import numpy as np
datasets = load_dataset("huggingartists/taylor-swift")
train_percentage = 0.9
validation_percentage = 0.07
test_percentage = 0.03
train, validation, test = np.split(datasets['train']['text'], [int(len(datasets['train']['text'])*train_percentage), int(len(datasets['train']['text'])*(train_percentage + validation_percentage))])
datasets = DatasetDict(
{
'train': Dataset.from_dict({'text': list(train)}),
'validation': Dataset.from_dict({'text': list(validation)}),
'test': Dataset.from_dict({'text': list(test)})
}
)
