“stars placed and glued meticulously by hand next to the ceiling fan” taylor has so many lyrics about her relationship with joe and how they spent so much time dreaming while staring at the ceiling, but except for this one line, she never mentions something that could hurt her while they were dreaming. the blades of the fan are moving fast and can quite literally hurt you, and she’s just trying to place stars next to this thing that could cut her because the ceiling with the dreamscapes is all she has.
and this also just makes me think how she has kept somethings back and not told the full story because she was trying to protect him (and as was her right because that’s what a partner does)
taylor trying her hardest to somehow make the surprise songs more challenging for herself because the 3.5 hour performance feels easy to her. okay i see you
im just. SO HAPPY. for her 🥹 like she wants to be loved and have someone commit to her with no reservations and have her be the priority, and he does that
“word to all my friends, with their red flags, their white knights, their black eyes and their blue lies, if you're asking yourself “how do you know?” then that’s your answer, the answer is no…. when you know you know” AND this time, she doesn’t need to ask herself. they both know ☺️
