"I have an incredibly vivid memory of the first time that I heard Dear John. Dear John is the savage dismantling of John Mayer written and performed by Taylor Swift in the manner of a John Mayer song. It is astonishing. It is honestly one of my favorite songs of the last fifteen years. It’s incredible. It’s impeccably executed. It is Taylor at her meanest, at her most vindictive, and most wounded. It is that perfect intersection of victim and assassin. Love that song."
— Jon Caramanica, NYT pop music critic  (via rippedupjeanss)

Long were the nights when my days once revolved around you
Counting my footsteps,
Praying the floor won’t fall through, again

taylorgifs:

Well maybe it’s me and my blind optimism to blame

teylors:

And I lived in your chess game
But you changed the rules everyday

s-wiftgifs:

I’m shining like fireworks over your sad, empty town.
