okay but I love that reputation is a full 180 from red. I mean not only did we go from all caps RED to all lower rep, but there’s so. many. parallels in the lyrics, within the same numbered tracks. Track 1 went from “love is a ruthless game” to “let the games begin.” Track 2 went from “missing him was grey” to “your body is gold”. Track 4 went from “the blame is on me” to “don’t blame me”. Track 9 went from “stay stay stay” to “go go go”. Track 10 went from “right before your eyes I’m breaking” to “my broken bones are mending”. Track 12 went from “lonely beds in different cities” to “now I wake up by your side”… I could go on and on. Two incredible albums.
Everybody’s been asking me to continue this so here’s the whole track list:
Track 1) love is a ruthless game ➙ let the games begin
Track 2) missing him was grey ➙ your body is gold
Track 3) I’ll do anything you say ➙ I owe him nothing
Track 4) the blame is on me ➙ don’t blame me
Track 5) running scared ➙ stay here honey
Track 6) who is Taylor Swift anyway? ➙ I rose up from the dead I do it all the time
Track 7) I can’t say hello to you and risk anther goodbye ➙ I’m yours to keep.
Track 8) I hate you, we break up ➙ you’re so cool, it makes me hate you so much.
Track 9) stay stay stay ➙ go go go
Track 10) right before your eyes I’m breaking ➙ my broken bones are mending
Track 11) tonight I’m gonna dance for all that we’ve been through ➙ we were dancing like it was the first time
Track 12) we both wake in lonely beds ➙ now I wake up by your side
Track 13) your secrets end up splashed on the news front page ➙ he ain’t reading what they call me lately
Track 14) I just wanna know you better ➙ because he really knows me
Last track) all love ever does is break and burn and end ➙ I stay when you’re lost and I’m scared and you’re turning away.
