The song 'Fortnight' by Taylor Swift and Post Malone tells a story about strong feelings, complicated relationships, and secret wishes. It talks about love, betrayal, and wanting someone who doesn't feel the same. The word 'fortnight' shows short-lived happiness and guilty pleasures, leading to sadness. It shows how messy relationships can be and the results of hiding emotions. “I was supposed to be sent away / But they forgot to come and get me,” she kickstarts the song in the first verse with lines suggesting an admission to a hospital for people with mental illnesses. She goes in the verse admitting her lover is the reason why she is like this. In the chorus, she sings about their time in love and reflects on how he has now settled with someone else. “I took the miracle move-on drug, the effects were temporary / And I love you, it’s ruining my life,” on the second verse she details her struggles to forget about him and the negative effects of her failure. “Thought of callin’ ya, but you won’t pick up / ‘Nother fortnight lost in America,” Post Malone sings in the outro.
Check my new jam I'm bringing
When I'm done with you your ears will be ringing
I bring the rock hard, slinging bad ass riffs
That'll cut you til you're stinging
All frequencies are bumping
When the dust clears the air you'll be feeling
Where am I, now, cause I'm spinnin so damn nauseous
That I knocked myself unconscience
All my peoples in the pit let me see you jump Higher, higher
Never ever gonna quit let me see you jump Higher, higher
Let's bring this motherfucker down
Don't give a shit
Higher, higher
All my peoples in the pit let me see you jump
Everybody's gonna get redick now no way to Stop the flow let's go, get your jump on
Can you feel the beats up in this, and the bass is so infectious
Get your jump on
Swirlin turnin slammin, how in the hell did I ever even get in
Swirlin turnin slammin, so fuckin lost that I can't even listen
All my peoples in the pit let me see you jump Higher, higher
Never ever gonna quit let me see you jump Higher, higher
Let's bring this motherfucker down
Don't give a shit
Higher, higher
All my peoples in the pit let me see you jump
All my peoples in the pit let me see you jump Higher, higher
Never ever gonna quit let me see you jump Higher, higher
Let's bring this motherfucker down
Don't give a shit
Higher, higher
All my peoples in the pit let me see you jump
When I'm done with you your ears will be ringing
I bring the rock hard, slinging bad ass riffs
That'll cut you til you're stinging
All frequencies are bumping
When the dust clears the air you'll be feeling
Where am I, now, cause I'm spinnin so damn nauseous
That I knocked myself unconscience
All my peoples in the pit let me see you jump Higher, higher
Never ever gonna quit let me see you jump Higher, higher
Let's bring this motherfucker down
Don't give a shit
Higher, higher
All my peoples in the pit let me see you jump
Everybody's gonna get redick now no way to Stop the flow let's go, get your jump on
Can you feel the beats up in this, and the bass is so infectious
Get your jump on
Swirlin turnin slammin, how in the hell did I ever even get in
Swirlin turnin slammin, so fuckin lost that I can't even listen
All my peoples in the pit let me see you jump Higher, higher
Never ever gonna quit let me see you jump Higher, higher
Let's bring this motherfucker down
Don't give a shit
Higher, higher
All my peoples in the pit let me see you jump
All my peoples in the pit let me see you jump Higher, higher

Let's bring this motherfucker down
Don't give a shit
Higher, higher
All my peoples in the pit let me see you jump
