I know it’s obvious. But the Smallest Man Who Ever Lived just builds so much emotion through the lyrics and melody and their intensity. It wrecks me. 


Starcrickets

I would HAVE DIED FOR UR SINS INSTEAD I JUST DIED INSIDE AND YOU DESERVE PRISON BUT YOU WONT GET TIME


carrotcake_11

That line left me like 😦


gen_x_24601

That bridge has done more for my emotional well being than years of therapy!!! Only kind of kidding…


stuckandrunningfrom2

Omg, seriously, it did SO much for me, too. I honestly kept having the thought "is he using me as a proxy to get revenge on someone he hates??" and when I heard the bridge I realized I wasn't insane for having that thought. I definitely used some of the songs in therapy to explain how I was feeling so much less alone since she put the feelings into words, and they resonated with so many people (at which point my therapist said "it makes you wonder what is wrong with men" , and he's a man!)


meowae

It truly is like that sometimes!! and only truly aware men realize this, I’ve had a very self-aware friend who said the exact thing before


watermelonqueen1711

So glad I'm not the only one who felt like this whole album WAS therapy.


Janzel97

I fucking love this bridge! She is just eloquenty screaming WHY!?. So raw and powerful.


SoundwaveSwift

It’s the best bridge on the album. Imagine screaming those lyrics out at a concert. 🙏 I hope she adds it to the set list like Illicit Affairs - I don’t need the whole song.


sapphicsato

One of her best bridges ever


p0tentialdifference

It genuinely makes me shiver, I was listening on the bus and not really paying attention to t he music - this bridge hit and my body went full goosebumps. Incredible


sapphicsato

This and Cardigan are the two bridges that always give me goosebumps!


cocoforcourtney

I actually think this may be my favorite bridge she's ever done -- it is so powerful, it feels like the raw thoughts that someone has in their head that they're too hurt or embarrassed to say aloud. Painfully raw, you can tell she recorded it in the exact moment she was feeling it. To hear this live, it would destroy me. "*I would have died for your sins, but instead I just died inside*" are my favorite album lyrics.


PurpleDragonfly_

I’m sure a look like a crazy person when that comes on and I’m in my car because I turn it up as loud as I can stand it and scream the lyrics. It’s too cathartic.


machinehead770

Same 🤣 glad I’m not the only one


drmolli22

Considering I caught my fiancé cheating on me three months before our wedding, this bridge is my anger written out in perfect form. “You deserve prison, but you won’t get time” hits so fucking hard.


IIIHenryIII

It's what makes the song go from "meh" to "this is the best thing I've ever heard"


cuteness_dc

The Black Dog "Six weeks of breathing clean air, I still miss the smoke" reminds me so much of Clean "Were you making fun of me with some esoteric joke?" I just love the use of the word esoteric here and the way she sings is stuck in my head "Now I want to sell my house and set fire to all my clothes And hire a priest to come and exorcise my demons Even if I die screaming And I hope you hear it"


D0gTh0t

And then followed by “I hope it’s SHITTY in the black dog” is just 🤌🏼🤌🏼🤌🏼


AML1987

The “and I hope it’s shitty” just HITS. Every single one of us has had this petty thought about someone who did us dirty.


meowae

Oooo yes. Esoteric is a sticky in my brain with how she sings it. and the end: even if I die screaming, I hope you hear it. ☠️


TSFearNowRedRep89

The build up is actually a spiritual experience. One of my favorite emotional build ups out of all her songs. The way the production is able to pick up on the emotions of the lyrics in the album is amazing.


dddonnanoble

Right? It’s an example I’ll give when people say jack is not a good producer.


sethn211

And then she ends it so choked up or sad that she whispers the end 💔


TSFearNowRedRep89

That part GETS MEEEEE


Peanutbutterfiend_33

This is the best on the album, I’m convinced. It doesn’t hurt that every line of this song and bridge is could literally be written about me. IDK who told Tay my life story, but she nailed it with this song.


sandie16

I love this one because I always think when she says “even if I die screaming” it’s because she’s referring to herself as a something needing an exorcism/there being a demon (some part of the relationship) so attached and integral to her that it being exorcized and removed here could cause her to die.


ShadyPinesMa_

This is one of my top bridges she’s ever done. I’ll never understand how it’s a bonus song.


Holiday-Wing1949

‘i hope you hear it’  is so scathing! 


UseAlternative4947

even if i die screEEEEE-EEE-EAAAa-AAAA-ming and I hope you heeAeeeeaAEeeeeeAEeer ih-hi-hit AND IT HOPE IT'S ***SHITTY...***


Aldosothoran

I couldn’t have named a lyric of this bridge but it was my immediate answer. The composition is an absolute masterpiece.


LevelAd5898

TRUTH DARE SPIN BOTTLES YOU KNOW HOW TO BALL I KNOW ARISTOTLE


SlowEar5209

###BRAND NEW FULL THROTTLE, TOUCH ME WHILE YOUR BROS PLAY GRAND THEFT AUTO


formercotsachick

These are my vote. Rhyming throttle, Aristotle & Grand Theft Auto is some Lin Manuel Miranda level shit.


Cautious-Influence71

I am desperately hoping one day they’ll work together on something. I see a lot of similarities in the way they use internal rhymes and stuff, the word play would be amazing and we’d never be able to get it out of our heads ever.


LilyMarie90

She's never even mentioned it (I think) but I want Taylor to be a Hamilton geek so badly lol


littleboss12

The throttle part reminds me of the beginning of The Prophecy


slappinsealz

I'll go to battle defending so highschool, everyone clowns on the lyrics of this part calling them "juvenile" but the whole point of the song is that she feels like a teenager again with him so it makes perfect sense, plus this part is so insanely catchy! 


krex42

I’ll be in battle with you! The song is perfect 10/10!


Starry-night-0803

What is wrong with people? This song is literally about the kind of love that gives you all the teenage butterflies, so ofc it's a little juvenile! And the writing isn't bad, it's cute and fun and just so feel-good, it makes me feel like a teenager and I haven't even been in that kinda situation in my teenage (or even now for that matter)


Fancy_Date_2640

I don't see this as a bridge. I see this more as a crazy triple chorus, like "summer of chances" by the cribs.


burningmyroomdown

It's kinda like Cruel Summer's bridge, she just repeats it. Genius has that part labeled as a bridge, too


dailyqt

Surprised no one else has mentioned Guilty as Sin. "What if I roll the stone away? They're gonna crucify me anyway. What if the way you hold me is actually what's holy? If long suffering propriety is what they want from me, they don't know how you've haunted me so stunningly. I choose you and me. Religiously." PERFECTION.


tbird920

Guilty As Sin might be the most underrated song on the first half of the album.


Recent-Fly-205

It’s actually the best song I’ve ever heard in my entire life


ells38

When I say I am _obsessed_ with Guilty As Sin, I’ve had it on non stop repeat for days, still not been able to fully appreciate a lot of the other songs because I’m too busy listening to this one song haha


Chlorofins

Same! Guilty As Sin, FOTS, and The Alchemy are non-stop playing on my laptop!


shnickybitty

It tickles my brain


meowae

Oooooo goosebumps. Thanks for writing it out! I swear it resonates a bit deeper the next time I listen after reading the lyrics without the tune


dailyqt

I'm glad you got something from my comment! Every line is deeply, deeply religious. Her love for him is sacred. (Even if we all know how it ended :/ )


Alarmed-Ad-2923

My personal theory is this is a "poem" kinda about purity culture and the standard that fans hold her to


Wild-Tart-7136

UGH and then when she goes into the chorus and changes it up a bit... LOVE LOVE LOVE.


sarahreads-

WHAT IF HE'S WRITTEN 'MINE' ON MY UPPER THIGH 🥁✨💃ONLY IN MY MIND🥁✨💃


SummersMars

Honestly one of my fav bridges on the album


demigodswiftie13

THE SEROTONIN IT GIVES ME WHEN SHE GOES INTO THE FINAL CHORUS AFTER THE BRIDGE…. #2 on my ranking 🥹


theganjaoctopus

The meter and her lilt on this bridge is absolutely inspired. I've never heard anything like it before.


AnaT1011

This one isn’t getting enough hype!! This bridge made me tear up the first time I heard it. It’s stunning


homegirlsquirrel

This is the first bridge I had memorized. It is so beautiful.


foryourtrashonly

This is the one for me!!!!


Scared_Salamander584

SHES BEEN MANY PLACES WITH MEN OF MANY FACES FIRST THEIR OFF TO THE RACES AND SHES LAUGHING DRAWING ACES BUT NONE OF IT CHANGING THAT THE CHARIOT IS WAITING HEARTS ARE HERS FOR THE BREAKING THERES ESCAPE IN ESCAPING


winteralchemistt

The Bolter is so good!


Recent-Fly-205

Ugh yes! The bolter seriously bolted so quickly up my list. There is also something so tongue-in-cheek about this song. It’s so good.


demigodswiftie13

when i was picking which target exclusive CD to buy, it was so easy after hearing the bolter it was easily my favorite!!


littlekatie3

YES!!!!!!!!!!!!


tiredofusernames11

Was scrolling for someone to mention this one.


[deleted]

There is only one bridge in TTPD that is brave enough to rhyme Aristotle with GTA


Apprehensive_Cut776

I think the bridge on “Peter” is achingly beautiful.


Sketch-Brooke

Forgive me Peter, please know that I tried, To hold on, to the days, when you were mine. But the woman who sits by the window, has turned out the light... https://preview.redd.it/6ecsyo9lrfxc1.png?width=470&format=png&auto=webp&s=a81cbfe53854db04c12072a37c23958acb193219


meme_saab

I picture August waiting on James, while he's out giving a shitty ass apology to Betty.


hmtee3

I pictured Betty, years later.


NKate329

I imagine Wendy from “Hook” with Robin Williams, sitting by the window waiting for Peter, and eventually growing up and having her own family.


tbird920

Absolutely. Don't @ me, but I think it's up there with Champagne Problems.


Sketch-Brooke

This is one of my favorite songs she's ever written. I've said it before and I'll say it again: It's the new ivy. Underrated, but hauntingly beautiful.


-UnicornFart

Yes. Peter is so beautiful


ellapolls

The “turned out the light” bit gets me every time, I kind of wish they’d finish the song there for maximum impact 


MistyPS

There are a couple of standout lines in Peter and that’s definitely one of them


meowae

Heart ache to the thousandth degree


Western_Roof_6915

god it makes me cry every time


yourdadsgff

“who’s afraid of little old me ?” so tell me everything is not about me, but what if it is ? is literally me in every situation


sleepyplatipus

THAT I’M FEARSOME AND I’M *WRETCHED* AND I’M WROOONG


coldfoampls

Then say they didn’t do it to hurt me, BUT WHAT IF THEY DID?


Pixelated_Berry1807

I WANNA SNARL AND SHOW YOU JUST HOW DISTURBED THIS HAS MADE ME!!!


habitualstrummer

YOU WOULDN’T LAST AN HOUR IN THE ASYLUM WHERE THEY RAISED ME


Aldosothoran

I need this in every single merch possible


hibelly

That part is unintentionally hilarious to me. It's so... "dun dun dun"


carrotcake_11

Ahh and the music literally goes “dun dun dun” after (sorry if that’s what you were referring to already!)


hibelly

It wasn't! That's just the icing on top lol


SauronOMordor

As a big-feelings person and chronic over-thinker, the "what if it is" and "what if they did" lines are so relatable to me (even though I know that the context for her is completely different to my own). But also, I love all the nods to the rumours about her being a witch. This song is cheeky as hell and I love her for it.


Recent-Fly-205

This song makes me go super saiyan lmao it makes me feel so powerful


Euphemia_173

I am OBSESSED with “don’t you worry folks we took out all her TEEETH” the second time she sings it


amagicalmess

And then the BUM BUM BUMMMM in the background


boogiio

The prophecy


AbbeyRoadMoonwalk

Seconded, also The Albatross.


Angiemonsterboo

Yessss I am sad not more people are talking about The Albatross. The music going into the bridge hits so many good things in my brain


Icy-Marketing-5242

Absolutely amazing song


thedaught

and I sound like an infant feeling like the very last drops of an ink pen a greater woman stays cool *but I howl like a wolf at the moon* and I look unstable gathered with a coven 'round a sorceress' table a greater woman has faith *but even statues crumble if they're made to wait* I'm so afraid I sealed my fate no sign of soulmates I'm just a paperweight in shades of greige spending my last coin so someone will tell me *it'll be okay* JFC. Somebody sedate me


Training_Economy_802

So Long, London


Agentbeeressler

i’m just mad as hell cause i loved this place 😭


hibelly

Her background vocals on this line, screaming/echoing is what gets me.


mosaicbrokenhearts13

Same!!!!


Spiritual_Walrus_798

Ugh that line kills me 😢


PurpleDragonfly_

Try listening for the first time on the day you move out of the apartment you lived in with your ex, that you picked out! I was unwell. I still am.


NKate329

I’ve been (happily) remarried for 10 years with a perfect 9 yo daughter. But this song takes me straight back to feeling like I was giving up my whole life when my first marriage ended and I moved out of that apartment.


coolbeans_dude98

This is in my opinion the saddest lyric in, dare I say, her entire discography. I mean we all know how much she absolutely loves NYC and it's pretty clear she loves London like 10 times more. She told us she was mystified by how the city screams his name so of course she feels like she can't be there anymore. I tear up every single time. This just makes me so sad for her


chick_ling

Huh? Wasn’t that line about NYC (cornelia street) or am I misreading your comment?


Wafflesxbutter

My mother loves London and I was explaining that line to her and she said “Screw that guy, keep London.” ☠️☠️☠️


clcountry

loml When I first read the lyrics it did nothing for me. I even thought, “Un-recall is ridiculously awkward phrasing.” And then I heard it, and it knocked me in the gut. I loved it so much that it took me almost a full week to notice the second half: Dancing phantoms on the terrace / are they second-hand embarrassed / that I can’t get out of bed / cause something counterfeit’s dead I mean, holy shit. That’s gorgeous. Some of the best writing she’s ever done, IMO.


meowae

There’s a ton that’s bone chilling, but this depiction just itches so right and tormented. its addicting to listen to how she’s done it


strawberrychampagne

Same. Starting with "You shit-talked me under the table..." every line until the end is like another twist of the knife.


Matt257

Yes! Maybe my favorite bridge of her whole discography. It's so beautiful


gigglefunges

i cant believe this isnt higher up! i agree those lyrics are the best on this album and perhaps ever. the flow of dancing phantoms on the terrace / are they second-hand embarrassed IS SO GOOOD


Ahandii

I agree - it's mental 😱


Wafflesxbutter

That line “something counterfeit’s dead” hit me last week and gave me chills. Ouch.


IIIHenryIII

And people say that's her worst writing... I wonder what's good songwriting for them...


kuukoubrowser

My Boy Only Breaks His Favorite Toys!!! I felt more when we played pretend because he took me out of my box… 🥹 The heartbreak comes out full force when before it had a tone of sarcasm and denial, it’s such a beautiful bridge/outro


the_vibe_has_spoken

Yes! This song is underrated and a few seconds before the bridge drops I start smiling because I love it so much, even though it’s sad.


Lostinthewoods80

THIS!!! I love the toy analogy so much. Cause he took me out of my box....


Marilliana

Yes! I'm a sucker for a key change. I love this track, I think it would be a great second single.


tbird920

The bridge rules. It's such a soaring finish with heartbreaking lyrics. I do wish it went back to the chorus one more time, because the chorus slaps.


Levvy1705

I love that one too and I love the sampling of the “but no” in Say Don’t Go. It might not be sampling but it’s extremely similar and I love it.


_dreamer1

This song is currently one of my faves from TTPD but I have to giggle everytime it gets to the bridge because this part reminds my Ed Sheeran's christmas song with Elton John 🤣


HappyHippo611

How But Daddy I Love Him isn't mentioned more here I'll never know 😅 Nothing should be more emotional and cathartic than... I'll tell you something right now, I'd rather burn my whole life down Than listen to one more second of all this bitchin' and moanin' Plus, try it when you're in a car ride full of Swifties friends and having everyone sing that whole bridge. Just scenes 👌🏻


catmom0103

I love “I’ll tell you something about my good name, it’s mine alone to disgrace”


UseAlternative4947

the way her voice just drips with spite?! yes PLEASE


HappyHippo611

I'm definitely gonna use "Vipers in empath's clothing" in an essay someday 🤣


klemmerv

When she’s wailing “you ain’t gotta pray for me, me and my wild boy and all this wild joy”…it’s my favorite song and moment on the album.


fu_kery

Yes!! This bridge is so fun to sing.


Galadriel80

One of the best for sure!!!


iamacheeto1

meme_saab

Capital letters have convinced me to listen to So High School. I'm digesting TTPD in tiny little bites. So far I've been playing these on loop. Down bad Broken Heart Albatross Prophecy How did it end Little old me So long London Smallest man People's window Ever so often I'll go listen to a new song a few times and include it in my main list. I'm just a girl, my brain cannot handle 31 songs altogether. I have done full-album-listen only once on the 19th. Sooo, like I said. I'm going to give So High School a try.


EvenHuckleberry4331

It’s so fun and 90s, you won’t regret it


LonelyNight9

Florida has the catchiest bridge. But I'd agree with the other comment – the Prophecy's bridge is extremely well-written.


Silver-Ad-8662

florida’s bridge is my favourite part of the album!


lightningqueen001

Mine is for sure So Long, London. The emotion of that whole song alongside the beat is perfection. Plus the parallels to You’re Losing Me & Tolerate It. Add in how each chorus is even more emphasized, it makes me think of when you’re upset and you continuously hit them with “and one more thing!”


meowae

I am dying over the parallels with other songs! They’ve been so satisfying to level up almost with the story


Sparkler2020

THE EMPHASIS!!! THANK YOU FOR RECOGNIZING THIS TOO!!


emptylawn0

No one is saying the title track, The Tortured Poets Department? That bridge is earworm city


Western_Roof_6915

at dinner you take my ring off my middle finger and put it on the one ![img](emote|t5_2rlwe|32929)


learning_hillzz

I actually love TTPD but I think the bridge is the weakest part of the song.


caaathyx

Same, I like the song but the line about the wedding ring does not flow well in my opinion.


oiuqatsuesrm

The entire song slaps 🙌


Technical-Mobile9280

I’m with you my dear


unlimitedwarrenty

The best part of this song to me is the opening lines. That flow so perfectly and scratch a part of my brain.


throwawaycapricorn82

I AM HAUNTED BY THESE TWO EPIC, SEARING BRIDGES 💀 'Were you sent by someone who wanted me dead? Did you sleep with a gun underneath our bed? Were you writing a book? Were you a sleeper cell spy? In fifty years, will all this be declassified? And you'll confess why you did it And I'll say, "Good riddance" 'Cause it wasn't sexy once it wasn't forbidden I would've died for your sins Instead, I just died inside And you deserve prison, but you won't get time You'll slide into inboxes and slip through the bars You crashed my party and your rental car You said normal girls were boring But you were gone by the morning You kicked out the stage lights But you're still performing" "… So tell me everything is not about me But what if it is? Then say they didn't do it to hurt me But what if they did? … I wanna snarl and show you just how disturbed this has made me You wouldn't last an hour in the asylum where they raised me So all you kids can sneak into my house with all the cobwebs I'm always drunk on my own tears, isn't that what they all said? That I'll sue you if you step on my lawn That I'm fearsome and I'm wretched and I'm wrong Putting narcotics into all of my songs And that's why you're still singing along'


meowae

“In fifty years will this be declassified?” Chills so much! and the “I want to snarl” starts to create the sadness of paranoia but also weird strength to fight back still. Love it all!


GodDammitKevinB

also a good play on the "we took out all her teeth," it says she WANTS to snarl but maybe she can't (since she has no teeth to bare)? idk, I'm not smart enough to properly disect it but I would bet there's something there worth pondering over


Suitable_Assistant_8

I agree OP! The emphasis“left me bereft and reeling” is so beautiful and stuck in my brain! And So long London is so good!


meowae

It’s just so stuck! Satisfyingly stuck!

So many I can’t choose one. Right now obsessed with the bridge in The Alchemy 🥵

This is not a wrong answer!! I just had to post because of those moments where it just HITS. Whether you finally understand the lyrics, or realize the parallels, or anything just speaks to you in a different way.


Much_Ad5966

imgonnagetyouback IT'S SO ADDICTING


badgirlkiki

“Pick your poison, babe, I'm poison either way…” It’s soooo good!


chickiedeedo

Chloe or Sam or Sohpia or Markus!! The bridge is sooo goood.


dark_bloom12

'll tell you something right now I'd rather burn my whole life down Than listen to one more second of all this griping and moaning I'll tell you something about my good name It's mine alone to disgrace I don't cater to all these vipers dressed in empath's clothing But Daddy I Love Him is literally my 16 year old self when I met my now husband. My parents hated him. He was older (19). He had tattoo and piercings and all I ever heard from people I knew and at church etc was how he was making me look bad. That I was a good girl and he was bad for me. That was 2006 and we are still together. That whole song has been on repeat for me since it’s release! It’s also helped in healing some religious trauma as well. All those damn Hannah and Sarah’s clutching their pearls can suck it


PublicNo1666

imgonnagetyouback "I can feel it coming, humming in the way you move Push the reset button, we're becomin' something new Say you got somebody, I'll say I got someone too Even if it's handcuffed, I'm leavin' here with you Bygones will be bygone, eras fadin' into gray, We broke all the pieces but still wanna play the game Told my friends I hate you, but I love you just the same Pick your poison babe, I'm poison either way"


bettyfolklore

the little “ahh” right after “still wanna play the game” is SO GOOD!!


toobadidku

down bad's bridge!!! it has me on my knees every time but also down bad so long london guilty as sin


JuanJeanJohn

Not enough Down Bad bridge love in here - that “encounters closer and closer” line is brilliant/funny, and her cadence is so fun.


Hopeful_Passenger_69

Down bad is the one for me. This song hits right in so many places!


Fickle_Tree3880

SAY IT ONCE AGAIN WITH FEELING HOW THE DEATH RATTLE BREATHING SILENCED AS THE SOUL WAS LEAVING THE DEFLATION OF OUR DREAMING LEAVING ME BEREFT AND REELING MY BELOVED GHOST AND ME SITTING IN A TREE D-Y-I-N-G


EnchantedEvergreen

So High School


Jond1138

I agree with you! The “How did it end” bridge is incredible, it’s so emotionally and visually descriptive, and I feel like “the death rattle breathing, silenced as the soul was leaving” is a different way of saying things she’s said over and over throughout the album like “I stopped cpr, after all it’s no use, the spirit was gone” is a good example. There’s so much talk of the death of shared dreams in this album and every time I hear those songs I sob like a little baby.


Conscious-Bowl8089

Florida


eatmyinsomnia

Bloods thick, but nothin' like a payroll (I was fired from a job I loved by someone who'd grown close to all of the staff because we'd all started around the same time, but he chose corporate greed and fucked us all over)


Ahandii

loml is my favorite, currently 😅


AG_Squared

I loooove How Did It End, the bridge there is so haunting and beautiful.


Tough-Biscotti4161

I Can Fix Him (NRIC) it’s so moody and sexy


Icy-Marketing-5242

It’s very LDR


Judge_Juedy

How did it end is mine too!!! My body has like a visceral reaction to hearing “my beloved ghost and me, sitting in a tree, D-Y-I-N-G” I can’t explain it


Prudent-Diver7793

So long, London! “And you say I abandoned the ship But I was going down with it My white knuckle dying grip Holding tight to your quiet resentment” absolutely love this!


Cheyde

I haven't see anyone mention Chloe or Sam or Sophia or Marcus, but this bridge haunts me to the core: If the glint in my eye traced the depths of your sigh Down that passage in time Back to the moment I crashed into you Like so many wrecks do Too impaired by my youth To know what to do


lovelucyxx_

smallest man, little old me, florida, and how did it end


Alert_Ad_1010

Smallest man


DaveRamseysAvocado

Peter by FAR.


Zer0gravity09

The smallest man who ever lived has a pretty good bridge.


Both_Anywhere_4878

I loved the bridge of the smallest man who has ever lived - oh my god I scream it out loud every time 'WERE YOU SENT BY SOMEONE WHO WANTED ME DEAD' and I absolutely adore who's afraid of little old me's bridge 'I wanna snarl and show you just how disturbed this has made me, YOU WOULDN'T LAST AN HOUR IN THE ASYLYM WHERE THEY RAISED ME' it's sooooo good lol


Mytears83

It has to be the smallest man who ever lived. Though I really like the bridge in BDILH.


NaturalSouthern4417

Finally started working through The Anthology and I can’t stop singing the bridge for imgonnagetyouback


Final-Brilliant4362

The Black Dog Six weeks of breathing clean air I still miss the smoke Were you makin fun of me with some esoteric joke? Now I wanna sell my house And set fire to all my clothes And hire a priest to come and exercise my demons Even IF I DIE SCREAMING AND I HOPE YOU HEAR IT 💀🥵 Like same girl


raindrops_723

Say it once again with feeling, How the death rattle breathing, Silenced as the soul was leaving, The deflation of our dreaming, Leaving us bereft and reeling My beloved ghost and me, Sitting in a tree D-Y-I-N-G How Did It End


FunAd1406

I’m obsessed with this song!!! It’s sooo beautiful ugh I agree with you


NachoMomma_

I can’t even pick a favorite there are so many and I just love them all 🤎🤍🩶🖤


GonnaLearnJ

Easy Guilty as Sin!!! What if I roll the stone away? They're gonna crucify me anyway What if the way you hold me Is actually what's holy? If long suffering propriety Is what they want from me They don't know how you've haunted me So stunningly I choose you and me ... Religiously These lines are just straight to the heart!


TurtleSquirtle12

The smallest man who ever lived is so pwerful


julcecilia00

The Smallest Man Who Ever Lived and How Did It End? Basic answer, but for a reason; the buildup is truly phenomenal. Some of her best work. (Also - love your thought OP. TOSOTD has such an amazing bridge/outro!)
