Speak Now

Two weeks ago I bought Taylor Swift's newest album Speak Now. I have been listening to it almost nonstop since then. I love it. Most of the songs have gotten to me in some way or another. Some make me feel sad. Some make me feel happy. Some make my head hurt. But they all do something to me.

So, I have decided to save myself about 17 blogs. I have written my tidbits about each song and hope I will be understood. You can make your guesses as to what's about what but I'll never say what's true or not. Some are obvious, some aren't. But this is just as far as I can go right now.

What I would suggest while reading this, if you have the means, is to actually listen to the album as you read it. Youtube the songs. And if you can't do that pull the lyrics up. You may get some pop-ups but if you go to azlyrics.com and pull up the songs at the top you can listen to them. If you don't care very much you won't do any of this and that is just fine. Do as you please. Read as you please.

Mine
I had it. I was so sure it was happening. Except when I braced myself for the goodbye, it actually happened. Now you have to change the 'ares' to 'weres.' Now all I do is pray that someday I can sing this song again.

Sparks Fly
This is my favourite song on the album. It's in my head all the time. Someday.....
"Drop everything now. Meet me in the pouring rain. Kiss me on the sidewalk. Take away the pain cause I see sparks fly whenever you smile."

Back To December
I go back to September all the time. And if it was still September...or even October. I would have taken this from you any day, especially the bridge...but now, I don't know. This song makes my brain hurt and I miss being your friend.

Speak Now
Please, don't force me to do this.

Dear John
I should've known...In the words of Taylor: "Loved you from the very first day"

Mean
"Someday I'll be living in a big ole city and all you're ever going to be is mean." While I would like to live in a small town, you're still only going to be mean. "Nice people" don't do that. They just don't. Get over yourself.

The Story of Us.
It truly is. I had my whole story ready. I was 100% in it to win it but I was abandoned. Now it's a tragedy.

Never Grow Up
Sorry, but I want to.

Enchanted
2nd favourite. I am enchanted. I know very little about you. But all I can do is pray that I can learn more. And while this song hurts my brain a bit, I think it's worth it. But "Please don't be in love with someone else....."

Revenge
This is another song I really don't want to have to sing...but I fear that someday in the near future I will be.

Innocent
"Who you are is not what you did. You're still an innocent." I wish you would realize this without me shoving it down your throat.

Haunted
Welcome to my life for the past 77 days. My frustrations and confusion. Chorus.

Last Kiss
Again, 77 days of this. My life has become the bridge of this song, no matter how hard I try. "I never planned on you changing your mind."

Long Live
I think that if I had graduated from CLS, my grad speech may have gone a bit like this. I wish I had graduated at CLS. It broke my heart having to wear red and black instead of blue and gold. CLS, you will always have a very large piece of my heart reserved just for you.

Ours [Extended Edition]
Maybe you didn't listen to Taylor's advice. I know I did. I wish you had. Maybe things would be different now. But then again, maybe they wouldn't be.

If This Was A Movie [Extended Edition]
I used to pray for this everyday. As if my life depended on it. But lately, I've realized this isn't a movie, it's real life. And for whatever reason this has happened. And I'm still waiting on my toes to figure out whatever God has planned but I have always wanted a movie ending. God, I am ready for my movie ending. Bring it on.

Superman [Extended Edition]
Waiting for my Superman.

Song of the Moment: Last Kiss by Taylor Swift

Don't let anyone look down on you because you are young but set an example for the believers in speech, in life, in love, in faith and in purity
