Official lyrics for "The Archer" written by Taylor Swift:
Combat
I'm ready for combat
I saw I don't want that
But what if I do?
'Cause cruelty wins in the movies
I've 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,
It's getting so old
Help me hold onto you
I've been the archer
I've been the prey
Who could ever leave me darling...
But who could stay?
Dark side
I search for your dark side
But what if I'm all right, right, right, right here?
And i cut off my nose just to spite my face
Then hate my reflection for years and years
I wake in the night
I pace like a ghost
The room is on fire
Invisible smoke
And all my heroes
Die all alone
Help me hold onto you
I've been the archer
I've been the prey
Screaming who could ever leave me darling...
But who could stay?
'Cause they see right through me
They see right through me
They see right through me
Can you see right through me?
They see right through
They see right through me
I see right through me
I see right through me
All the king's horses, all the king's men
Couldn't put me together again
'Cause all of my enemies
Started out friends
Help me hold onto you
I've been the archer
I've been the prey
Who could ever leave me darling...
But who could stay?
Who could stay?
Who could stay?
You could stay
You could stay
Combat
I'm ready for combat

I'll never forgive this fandom for ignoring this song's existence after the album came out
True
Same
saaame
Ill never forget a track 5 hahahahah
Exactly
The reason why this song doesn't sound right because people are waiting for the beat to drop, but it never does. And that's how anxiety feels like.
Her mind istg😭😭
exactly it just keeps building and building and it feels like there’s no end or release
The beat does build up, though
@@xXmlgamingXx355 yeah, but it never drops, which makes us all anxious. And this whole song is a representation of Taylor's anxious feelings.
@@emmy5658 yes, I know, but it’s not like the beat stays static throughout the entire song
Its March 2024, let's see how many legends are listening to this incredible song💖
i literally see u everywhere now-
I'm here.
🎉
Hi- stop stalking meh pls
YOU ARE EVERYWHERE💀
Other people relate to 'lover', 'gorgeous', 'paper rings' and 'invisible string'.
I relate to "the archer"
Katie perry>>>
I also relate to This Is Me Trying
@cosmomcfloso5820 you can't even spelled her name right😭💀

"hated my reflection for years and years" is heartbreaking after taylors eating disorder confession in Miss Americana
And how she Said she Was Glad that she finally isolated herself from looking at her pictures everyday cause it makes her more insecure of her body.
Truly
Ikr!! When I heard that line that’s exactly what I thought about
I can relate a lot about this song, but mostly in that part, because I hate myself a lot.
I JUST WATCHED THE FILM AND WENT HERE FOR THISSSSSSSSSSSSSAHHHHHHHHH
I wish the lyrics in Folklore's videos are as huge as the lyrics here.
Lmao
OMG JSKSKSKSKSKK
I know right I'm literally struggling
😂
In one of the Folklore songs I am like "Where in the world are the lyrics?" for about 30 seconds straight.
Then I squint in the corner and see "Ohhhhh! There are the lyrics."
I looked it up, what this song could possibly mean and I learned this song is deeply about Taylor that a lot of others could relate.
This song is about her struggles with her vulnerability and trust in relationship. Taylor compares herself to the archer, saying she's ready to defend herself from being hurt, but this also makes it difficult for her to let people in.
"I've been the archer, I've been the prey," is about how she has been hurt in the past, but Taylor also acknowledges that she has hurt others.
This song is about how she is afraid of getting hurt again, but she also wants to find someone who will stay with her.
"Who could stay?" reflects Taylor's uncertainty of finding lasting love.
The song ends with the line "You could stay," which suggests that Taylor is finally starting to believe she is worthy of love.
This song shows her willingness to be more open and vulnerable with her fans.
I love how you explained this... thank you.🙂
Wow this was long and I’m glad I took the time to read this thanks😊
It also refers to the Sagittarius sign being referred to as the archer
Ouch...wow. This hit me.
“Can you see right through me” is exactly how my social anxiety feels
Uhmmm you got the lyrics wrong it's, "Can you see Ratatouille?" 🤫🧏♀️
“Cause all of my enemies started off friends”
*That one hit me hard Taylor*
Me too man 💔
OMG sameee💔
Me too!!
what does that line mean?
@@nithya1747 most of her actual enemies used to be her friends, she trusted 'em but then they betrayed her and talked sh*t bout her :/
“help me hold onto you” has the same energy as “please don’t ever become a stranger whose laugh i could recognize anywhere”
YES
Daz so bootiful
@@blueangel5050 bad
DAMN THE TEAAAAAARS
YES AMEN
"Who could ever leave me darling but who could have stayed"
Hits hard when none of your friends remember your birthday, I know it's immature to have expectation but I was the one texting them always
I don’t think it’s immature to want reciprocity
it's not immature at all
I think "tolerate it" from Taylor Swift's 'evermore' album describes your situation
I relate a lot to this line!! But for me it's because I'm still in the closet and my friends don't know about me so I wonder what'll happen if they knew and question myself, *"Who could ever leave me darling and who could stay?"*
It makes me sad that people don't realize this is one of the most beautiful songs ever written in history. It is hauntingly beautiful, soul crushing honest and so heartfelt. It's flawless.
You don't know a lot of songs do you?
@@ibogantess"one of the..."
I read on twitter that a lot of people don't like this song because they waited for the beat drop to happen but it never came. And some said taylor wrote it that way because thats exactly how anxiety feels like for her; waiting forever to feel relieved. Gosh shes such a genius songwriter, i feel sorry for her bcs she has to go through a lot of bad things🥺🥺
That makes a lot of sense. The repeating "they see right through me" definitely makes me think of anxiety
Its 200x better that there was no beat drop. It was more emotional that way.
Dang i felt the same way, seemed half baked, but i love this song, maybe she can do a remix, would love both versions.
I think it’s perfect the way it is ❤️ I have it on repeat I especially love the Bridge “I see right through me”
She is literally an artist, lyrics alone had me in tears her genius is her talent! She does it all!
I just love the fact that it says
"©2019 TAYLOR SWIFT"
at the end
as it should be
proud of her!!
ME! Too
GIRL POWER
& you are in love kinda
The Beatles didn’t even own their own music. Proud.
This song is a metaphor of anxiety depicted in a bow. As we all know the song never drops, so as the song progresses the tension increases, much like how you pull the string of a bow, there is increasing tension. The song continues to build up until it abruptly stops in the end alluding the release of tension, aka releasing the pull on the bow. You can kinda tell based on how the bass faintly hums in the end, like a bow string vibrating due to release. So the release of tension implies release of that anxiety and pain, which symbolically means that Taylor is finally ready for combat like the last line of the song implies. But who knows maybe I'm wrong🤔🤷
I can hear the bass drop and it's like a heartbeat and I think she obvs put that in intentionally
THANK YOU 😊 I NEVER THOUGHT ABOUT THIS MASTERPIECE THIS WAY 💕
ur defo not wrong shut upppp IT ALL MAKES SENSE
keshi (casey) ?
Thanks for your review. I was confused by the end 66.6666 tone. Last words on my LP are "That is the compact." then the tone to fade out. Republic Czech Republic Vinyl LP "Lover".
"cause all of my enemies started out friends"
and it's true:(
Woawwww purfect 💓💚💚💚💓
Justin Bieber says HELLO
Ik that's rly deep, for example Karlie and this dumbass S*cott
im sobbing
I cried
It's like RED and 1989 had a child, this is so emotional for me
I really love those two album of her 💖
Exactly!!!
I really like her songs in this style.
same. i love this so much
Hsgdjrujikgddhi i loved it
the fact that i heard this live … probably the best moment of my life.
You were at the concert?! Jealous but so happy for you guys! The Archer is my personal fave so I was happy to see a clip of her singing this live. ❤
I'm going to the eras tour on August 7th, and I am 100% going to cry my eyes out when I hear this song live 🥲
this song live HURTS.
me too 💖 this song healed something inside me the day I heard it live
I am so jealous! i tried to get tickets...
PUT IT BACK ON THE SET LIST I'M BEGGING YOUUUUUUUU
YESS
Unpopular opinion: The Archer would get much attention if it was put in Folklore.
Yessss
My thoughts exactly
Not unpopular. It's true. I don't know why the Archer was ranked last by Billboard in the top songs from Lover.
it has a folklore vibe in it, agreed.
Jan. 20, 2021
it sounds like "this is me trying" for me.
it sounds like being in a club full of people yet feeling alone, crying, drinking, dancing your sadness, anger and hope away...
Wow... this should be a music video. I can totally imagine Taylor in a club with things racing past her and she is alone. I am so ready to listen to this song in a car and pretend like I am in a sad music video.
yeeeeahh it's what i'm talking about
That explains my ninth grade homecoming night
YESS I FELL ITT
@@bugzzboyy I am so sorry for that
In my opinion, this is Taylor Swift's best song in her entire catalog. It is hauntingly beautiful and tragically underappreciated.
This song really comforts me. Its like I can listen to my anxiety in the most calm way.
why does everyone ignore the humpty dumpty rhymes reference
“all the king’s horses and all the king’s men couldn’t put me together again”
I just noticed them rn and was like: :o
It's really cool how she did that. Also, the structure of the chorus is kind of similar to a nursery rhyme
i came to the comments to check if anyone else noticed too lol
Me not men
@@Isabelle-Cassels no its men lol
This sounds like something you'd hear at the end of an 80's movie when the two leads are slow dancing at their prom. Anyone else get that vibe?
yesss
jesse candiver YASS! It gives me that awesome feeling! Where in that moment everything is very intimate!
jesse candiver YES I HEAR IT I TOTALLY HEAR THAT WHOA
jesse candiver now that you say it
jesse candiver yes!!!!!
this is so folklore coded. i love it. it’s so underrated
@@Swiftie-1989TV yeah ik i’m just saying that it reminds me of folklore
id like to gatekeep this song
Idk why swifties don't like this song, this is literally my favourite song of Taylor, I relate to it so much....
Mine too, listening to Anti-Hero then The Archer is a whole mood I never knew I needed!
Bro I literally cried when I first heard this. easily my favourite in lover.
“ ‘Cause all of my enemies started out friends” - I really felt that
Same
Same
Me too :(
I didn't
same :)
Perfect song for driving around at night thinking about life....
Omg that is so what i feel and think of the mood. 😂
Dang I'm agree
Yeah ...🤘👍😁
ArtsyPutsy IM FEELING THAT
damn i’d fall asleep
the bridge of this song is everything. in an interview with vogue in 2014, when asked if she could have any superpower which she could have, taylor said “the ability to heal people”. SHE HAS THIS SUPERPOWER this song is healing and i love it so much🥰
My fav line is 100% "They see ratatouille, they see ratatouille. I see ratatouille, I see ratatouille" its just such an emotional and relatable line😔💔
HAHAHAHA
Lmao real❤
FINALLY SOMEBODY SAYS THAT IT SOUNDS LIKE THAT
SAME LOLL
DUDE MY TEARS WENT UP NOO HAHDHAH
"All my enemies started out as friends"
Damn! That hit right at home...
SAME!!
Anonymous Person same. I’m in that position now.
Same
She just exposed her snakeness!! 🐍🐍🐍
SAME I used to be friends with this kid then they started talking about me then I started hating him and I never did any thing to him then he starts saying stuff to my face I’m not kidding it was 7 AM every time he would do it so I’m just damn it’s 7 am
this could trigger anxiety. and the beat sounds like the heartbeat. genius
Just like wildest dreams but not with a steady heart rate and with a heavy breathing heart
Thank YOU ❣️ love
The beat is supposed to sound like an archer pulling back their bowstring and letting go at the end
Literally just explained what "music" is
This actually helps calm my anxiety 😅😂
2:07 I feel like my heart will flip out, the nerves, the anxiousness, the heartbeat not slowing down, the beat keeps getting louder as if you're finally, finally been seen. Taylor, you've really seen right through me
Makes me almost want to throw up but I love it 😮
i know most people dislike this song, but it holds a very special place in my heart.
my crush’s middle name is Archer, i love him so much. and the reason why this song is so special to me is not just cause it has his middle name in it, but this album also released around the time i met him.
i had horrible separation anxiety, i was terrified to be away from my family. i was failing school as well, and my parents decided to put me in a class for after school. and my crush’s mom was the teacher of the class, and that’s how i met him.
my mom had just left me there outside the building, and i was sitting outside crying on the sidewalk in the summer heat, he saw me through the window and came over and gently said “hi, are you okay?”
and i just shook my head, still crying.
and he just hugged me.
the reason why this was such a big deal was because i was having an absolutely horrible year. i hit puberty, i had no friends, and i was failing school.
and nobody ever hugged me like he did then, i felt actually cared for in that moment.
he took my hand and led me inside, and his brother was just sitting at one of the tables.
and we went over and sat down, and he introduced me to his brother.
and all of us from then on became best friends.
the only reason i have an appreciation for 2019 is because that’s when i met him.
and honestly i’m so thankful that i was put in that class, because if not i wouldn’t have ever met him.
i love you, jackson.
"Then hate my reflection for years and years."

That hit me so hard

Mulan said it better
ʇɹɐǝɥ ɐɹʇɔǝןǝ nah

yah
@@mthsongs3596 Taking this line alone, I understand literally she doesn't liking her self image for some reason.
But, when you take it with the line before "and I cut off my nose just to spite my face..." I understand it as she takes action/does things for revenge or whatever/allows things to happen to her, knowing it won't be good for her, then she dislikes the consequences, she regrets doing/allowing that to happen, but she has to live with that for a long time, cause what's done is done.
Of course, I can be totally wrong 😅
When Tay said "All my enemies started out friends" I felt that.
Selenator Forever same
Yeah me too
Yes I was literally shot by an arrow on that line.
Same...😭
The more I thought about it, the more I realized it was true. :(
It’s crazy how this song is exactly how i feel when i experience anxiety. I can literally not only feel my heart like this but also hear my heart beating like that
People wait for love/beat drop but it never comes, and that's how heartbreak/anxiety feels like.
I just randomly got this song recommended even tho I don't even listen to her. The lack of a beatdrop makes this song sound way more heavenly and beautiful than some other generic EDM instrumental with beatd
If Call it what you want and Wildest Dreams had a baby, it would sound like this.
omg YES
Agreed x10
and the baby’s sibling would be Clean
holden
SO TRUE!!
"I've been the archer, I've been the prey"
"All of my enemies started out friends"
Sis low key talking about self destruction
But also being the reason of her own character growth
I think it's about her hurting people and people hurting her and how both were done
It reminds me of I know places where she is a fox and foxes are prey's to humans.
The Archer, mirrorball, this is me trying, and Dear Reader are the kind of songs you need to listen to, when you want to cry but simply can't...🥲
the archer with mirrorball and this is me trying is so heavenly😭
Add Nothing New as well😭😭
dear reader 👏
Plus, Castles Crumbling
and evermore!
This is how i feel like all the time, nervous, shy, worried, anxious, wanting to fit in. The beat Never drops in my life, just like this song.
Sounds like a pounding heartbeat, one you can seem to relieve or slow down. Exactly what anxiety feels like a complete loss of control. Taylor is a GUINUS
this is like a perfect song for a sad drive home alone at night.
Cheyenne Venables I’m with you.
Nope. That would be Me by 1975, the song Taylor's song here rips off for its beat.
I hate doing this spammy “pay attention to me” sort of thing but Im an indie artist, go by the name Huddie, and I’m trying to get my music heard. Its mostly dark pop with electronic sounds and a primary focus on lyrics. Just check it out if you’re looking for something new. If it’s not your shit, sorry bout it, but if you’re feeling it, hit subscribe and definitely leave me some feedback. Thanks.
Exactly
Yesss this song made me sad every time I listened to it
"All of my enemies started out as friends."
That hit me right in the feels. Sad that some of my closest friends are gone from life
I just made youtube look forward to communicating with everyone
And all of mine became friends🤦♀️
That hits home honestly
☹️☹️
I didnt realise Taylor's star sign, Sagittarius, is also called "The Archer". Its cool that she always has so mamy reasons why she'll pick a song/Album name
This song never fails to give me goosebumps. The lyrics, the pain, the relief when you found someone you could hold onto, this song is so beautiful. Totally my fav in Lover.
Taylor's strongest weapon is her impeccable songwriting skills.
"Only" the strongest among many many others. :-)
That's funny because her songs are written for her she just sings them and adds autotune 😂😂
@@drishyashah2463 Don't feed the troll! ;-)
If you think she writes all her song your under 25 and living in bliss enjoy it👍🏽
@@larryjane4926 Why wouldn't she write the songs herself? Or do you mean ALL by herself? Because she has co-writers at least for most of the newer songs. Still HER songs, though. Do you write songs? Because I do. And just because my band co-writes them of course, it's still my song if the idea and the lyrics and the main structure are my creation.
I love how in the end, on the bottom it says, “©️2019 Taylor Swift” instead of “©️2019 Big Machine Records”
Wow, thanks for the likes!
totally, our girl is growing up¡¡
Shots fired
Angela Connell she’s not part of the big machine
Angela Connell breath of relieve for me
Me too ❤❤
idc what ppl say "the Archer" is one of my favs , it just calms me
This song is so hypnotic. The lyrics are like listening to a story and feeling her experience behind the music.
In case you didn’t know, Taylor’s zodiac sign is a Sagittarius, and it’s symbol is The Archer
Omg I didn't noticed that😱
My zodiac sign is also sagittarius
Sagi's! 🙆🏽♀️
Fellow Sagittarius here♐
Saggy's unite! Lol
red: stay stay stay
1989: all u had to do was stay
lover: who could stay?
Star of All Donuts me: *dies*
Star of All Donuts im happy she says you could stay after that this song was so effortlessly good
Star of All Donuts reputation: but i stay...
I HAVE TO STAY NOE
reputation : stay here honey i dont wanna share
then i hate my refelcton for years and years""they see right through me" "i see right through me" " all the kings horses all the kings men couldn't put me together again" "cause all of my enemies started out friends" are the most relatable lyrics ive ever sang to me
Brought a tear to my eye hearing this live yesterday. Felt it so much more in person...
Lucky!!
same here 😭
it was a spiritual experience
"All of my enemies started out friends" damn I felt that.
True this!! :)
Yeah makes my chest heavy.
Can u name them??
Nobody's gonna love you like me. Same here
It's very appreciate to hear my best artist in my birthday,Can't wait to see more official music video. ^^
this song feels like a warm hug, a late night drive, a cup of hot chocolate, a cosy campfire, it gives me such good but sad vibes. her songwriting speaks volumes. one of the best songwriter of our generation.
Thats actually true
This. And she's also capable to write huge mainstream hits like I Knew You Were Trouble to Shake It Off, pop bops like Blank Space and End Game
Like she's very versatile, people cant judge her talent just by one song
Exactly man!
*cozy but yes
I like your profile pic😊
“And I hate my reflection for years and years”
“I’ll stare directly at the Sun but never in the mirror”
😢😮🤯
I love the part where it goes like “can you see right through me?” And all of that, it starts at about 2:08 in the song and I feel like it is a perfect representation of intruding and unwanted thoughts, and I really appreciated this part because that’s how it feels for me, thank you Taylor for this masterpiece.
It's like if Getaway Car and Wildest Dream had a baby 💓
Exactly.
TRUE
"Getaway Car" thats what it is called ik it was the mix of the genres of two of her songs couldn't think of the name to "Getaway Car" thanks though!
Lol
And if the baby way born in the 80s
This song is criminally underrated.
IS IT? Can u explain yue difference between prison trade and just regular trade? I need to know because I'm finally marketing myself appropriately!
Anybody wanna buy a hear
Just like archery
@@albumusicon2150 what-
It's perfect
As someone who's lately been dealing with anxiety, this song makes me feel it a lot...
Listening to this song in the month of May, 2023 just hurts with a greater magnitude cause we have confirmation that the person she dedicated this song to, the person she was most afraid to lose, left her.
I wake in the night, I pace like a ghost. The room is on fire, invisible smoke.
This portrays exactly how a panic attack feels.
Yes! Dude I got that part and that part got me.
Corey Wollard it’s actually why I like the song so much .... makes the panic attacks more elegant
W the music ...🤷♀️💔🏹🏹❤️❣️☺️🤭
agreed!
exactly !!
Yes!!!
"All of my enemies started as friends."
That hit me.
Maria Gracia absolutely
So sad, and yet so true ...
But if so many of your Friends turn into enemys maybe you are doing something wrong...
What I relate to:-
"I jump from the train, i ride off alone"
"Hate my reflection, for years and years"
"I see right through me"
"Cause all of my enemies started out friends"
"Who could ever leave me darling, but who could stay"
The increase in beat ( makes me feel like anxiety is building up and there is no way to stop it.) And it never drops
'Who could ever leave me darling, but who could stay?' this line broke me, i still can't believe this song didn't got the love & recognition it deserved 😭
This song is a power fusion of reputation and lover
@tijrus Bruh I couldn't even say "articulate". But I felt it.
and folklore
and evermore
and folklore
hi me
Abandoning this song was one of the worst ideas Swifties have ever thought of
😿Yes!
Can't agree more
THEY DID BAD WITH THIS SONG
i never abandoned this song
this song is a masterpiece and i love it
abandoning this whole album was, and still is one of the worst ideas swifties have ever thought of 😔
"hate my reflection for years and years" that hit me so hard
The change in her voice from " I've got a hundred thrown out speeches I almost said to you...Easy they come,easy they go"gives me goosebumps and I genuinely admire this song so much. I think this is one of her greatest songs ever.❤
This sounds so much like "This Love" from 1989 and I'm here for it
Exactly.
Yessssss. 😭😭😭😭
A select few
I wish it had the lyrical genius that this love has tho
I think they were both produced by Jack Antonoff!!
I found the song with the same vibes as Wild Heart by the bleachers which is also done by Jack Antonoff
The archer is one of her most heartbreaking and beautify written songs. Not only because of the lyrics, but because of her voice, I love how she can make you feel whatever she wants trough her voice, you can feel the pain and the anxiety trough out the whole song.
Masterpiece!
YESSSSSS 💕
@@jessailardi8908 I agree!!!!!!
❤
"I've been the archer, I've been the prey. Who could ever leave me darling, but who could stay?" I just LOVE that line!!!!!
but listening to this song live was meant to be the greatest 3 minutes of my entire life 😭😭😭
Unpopular opinion: This is one of her best songs.
it’s my favorite song of hers
And so its rightfully unpopular
It's my favourite
saddest song ever by Taylor Swift
@@ericdarmawan9504 I think back to December is sadder
“All my enemies started as friends”
Why is this so relatable🔥💔
yes so true ):
You know it’s been a really bad day when you can finally say you understand The Archer
If you've been the archer and the prey, then you've broken hearts and you heart has been broken.
In All Too Well we had a climax because at the end of that song she wanted to show off her pain in a sort of "furious" way. It was the cry of desperation of a 20 year old girl.
Now, 7 years later, she's a woman pushing 30 and she's got a different way to react to hurtful situations: the general tone is more somber and reflective, mirroring her (new?) ability to cope in an adult-like way. She's in a stable relationship and she can reflect on her fear of losing it all in a sad but mature state of mind. No need for a climax.
omg this is such a thorough analysis i love it
I waited for the climax throughout the whole song until I understood that. I can't agree more!
@@IanaraLopes omg same. I was like where's the "drop" but yeah when i listened again, i understood
Angelo Rinaldi i really like that
i love it 😊
All I can think about is hearing Taylor perform this acoustic on a summer night at the Lover Tour surrounded by 70,000 light up bracelets.
Alex Luque yesssss !!
Ikr. I still have my light up bracelet from the Reputation tour.
Imagining this made me tear up for a little bit

👇🏼
"easy they come easy they go" DAMN
1989: "They are the hunters, we are the foxes"
Lover: "I've been the archer, I've been the prey"
👏👏
I think she has grown up to be the archer not the fox
I thought the same thing, and I love I Know Places, wonderful song
Sogand fz actually, kinda. But she still knows that she has been a prey. But this time, she rightly acknowledges that she has also been an archer. ‘The archer’ and ‘the prey’ In context of her relationships and friendships.
I know places... I love this song so much.

This song holds a special place in my heart. The day this video was released, was a very hard day for me. I left my family for the first time and went to France for my education. I was staying with a family who treated me so badly. They yelled at me all the time and looked down on me. I was missing my family, trying to focus on my studies and handling with the family that I was staying with at the same time and one day when it was all too much I just started crying in my bedroom. I felt so alone, thousands of miles away from my family and friends, but suddenly I got a notification on my phone. It was Taylor, releasing The Archer lyric video and at that moment I felt like she was there with me and she was telling me that everything was going to be okay and stop crying . Thank you Taylor, you may never read this comment but thank you for making me feel not alone. You were there for me when I needed you the most and I will always be there for you too. I love you.
are you okay now darling🥺 stay strong!!❤
how is france?? did you make friends??
@@buzzcutseason142 France is great, yes I've made a lot of friends and my French really improved! :)
I hope you’re doing well now! Stay strong archer! ♥️
@@ann_vocado The way this comment made me smile... Thank you! ♥️
Im mourning of the loss of the archer and long live
Ik theres more songs that got removed but these songs are the ones that Im the most sad about
"who could ever leave me, darling, but who could stay" was my life for SO long, that line really hits
I don’t see why Taylor didn’t get a Grammy for this album this album is better than the ones nominated
👍🏻👍🏻💙
Grammy is rigged!
Grammy is rigged dahling. 😂
You should be glad she’s been nominated before - trying being Madonna - she’s been snubbed for many of her amazing albums like a prayer , true blue , erotica
Agree too disagree but at least shouldve gotten a nomination in Album Of The Year
“All of my enemies started out friends” Taylor REALLY relates.
at first i didn't understand the hype for this song. now it's one of my favorites
this kinda sounds like a mashup of “this love”, “so it goes”, and “call it what you want” and it’s amazing
Yes, but without so it goes...
So it goes. Is so underrated its one of my favorit songs
Virginia Klenske yessss you’re so right!
it kinda reminds of sad beautiful tragic
And "You are in Love"
Anyone else notice at the end, instead of say 2019 Big Machine it said 2019 Taylor Swift!!!!
Go Taylor!! We stand with you❤️
SmartBlondey 99 love the username and I stand with Taylor as well
She's done that starting with ME!. 🤨😅😂
Immediately noticed that!
@@keathenyoung8499 ...
I noticed that since ME!
I think this song is about her being in the music industry the line “ all my enemies started out as friends” referring to Kim/Kanye and Scooter and I strongly believe the line “ help me hold onto you” is her losing the passion of music because of everything happened at the time.
LOVE YOU TAYLOR💘💘
we think the beat not drop, but it drop, slowly and quiet, and we dont realized. the life works like that, a lot of things happend when we just want something big
This song is like an arrow was shot at you but in slow motion. Taylor is just so genius. She really portray the feeling of anxiety in this song. Thats an artist yall!!
Btw she liked a tumblr post saying that which means she confirmed this so we can call her a GENIUS for thinking to do this
O
Nah. That's true. Just like an arrow coming at you in slow motion
Being an Emiya is suffering.
