wastedpotential Posted April 18 Posted April 18 I'm eating the way she sings "declassified" right now Like I kinda want to listen to that over and over and over and just fathom it

I read a theory someone posted that Fortnight sounds as if it could be written from the future if she ran into Joe, but also…fortnight . I feel like it's one of the ones I need to read the lyrics to. someone posted the lyrics to fortnight like two pages ago

Magickarp Posted April 18 Posted April 18 This album is so lyrically dense, i could read y'all quoting a lyric, & not remember which song it's from despite just listening to it 5 mins ago Here are the title track's lyrics: Spoiler You left your typewriter at my apartment. Straight from the tortured poets department. I think some things I never say, Like who uses typewriters anyway? But you're in self sabotage modes, throwing spikes down on the road. But I've seen this episode and still love to show Who else decodes you and who's gonna love you like me Who's gonna know you if not me? I laughed in your face and said, You're not Dylan Thomas. I'm not Patty Smith. This ain't the Chelsea Hotel. We're modern idiots Who's gonna love you like me Nobody No ******* body Nobody You smoked then ate seven bars of chocolate. We declare Charlie Puth should be a bigger artist. I scratch your head, you fall asleep Like a tattooed golden retriever But you awaken with dread pounding nails in your head But I let this one way come undone I chose this cyclone with you Who's gonna love you like me Who's gonna hold you? I laughed in your face and said, You're not Dylan Thomas. I'm not Patty Smith. This ain't the Chelsea Hotel. We're modern idiots Who's gonna love you like me Nobody No ******* body Nobody Sometimes I wonder if you're gonna screw this up with me But you told Lucy you'd kill yourself if I ever leave And I had said that to Jack about you, so I felt seen Everyone we know understands why it's meant to be Cause we're crazy So tell me Who's gonna love you like me? At dinner you take my ring off my middle finger and put it on the one people put wedding rings on and that's the closest I've come to my heart exploded You're not Dylan Thomas. I'm not Patty Smith. This ain't the Chelsea Hotel. We're modern idiots Who's gonna love you like me Nobody No ******* body Nobody
georgechxng Posted April 18 Posted April 18 i thot TTPD was abt joe but we all see him on the beach on paparazzi photos before and he has ZERO tattoos. so the tattoed golden retriever line is making me think is abt matty. which is kinda insane bc i can't believe she named an album after a track dedicated to him.

She can still take some creative liberties. The rest of the song sounds 1000% Joe coded. 1

Opulent Posted April 18 Posted April 18 The last minute of Fortnight is so good I love how it builds up to that point My favorites on first listen: Guilty as Sin? Fortnight The Black Dog I Can Fix Him (No Really, I Can)
Redstreak Posted April 18 Posted April 18 Tbh I get how this can be more Matty than Joe. After 6 years of what sounds like off and on you kinda already knew what your long term dynamic was gonna be if you kept trying, you're exhausted at that point. The manic fling is the death at the high, when you're still thinking of all that could be 2
Cherish Posted April 18 Posted April 18 Wait, not her dragging the swifties in Daddy I Love Him are we Daddy? 1

Taylor fanboy Posted April 18 Posted April 18 Midnights sounded more like a break-up album than TTPD. Hell, even 1989. The big surprise. I thought Joe will be eviscerated, Dear John + Is It Over Now? type of microwaving.
