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.
Flesh starts to rip
Gouging through skin
From the throat
Blood gushes
Glandular eruption
Blistered skin secretion
Internal punctures
Blood regurgitation
Gagging, choking, on broken gla**
Shredded muscle tissue
Wounds too deep to heal
Severed esophagus
Tongue split in half
Lungs fill with blood
As vocal chords collapse
Oral sex
With broken gla**
Ruptured flesh
Ripped through the neck
Mutilate
Pulsing veins
Sliced windpipe
Flesh starts to rip
Gouging through skin
From the throat
Blood gushes
Glandular eruption
Blistered skin secretion
Wounds too deep to heal
In me
Torn trachea
Splintered skin
Down the throat
Choke
Lungs fill with blood
As vocal chords collapse
Oral sex, with broken glass
Gouging through skin
From the throat
Blood gushes
Glandular eruption
Blistered skin secretion
Internal punctures
Blood regurgitation
Gagging, choking, on broken gla**
Shredded muscle tissue
Wounds too deep to heal
Severed esophagus
Tongue split in half
Lungs fill with blood
As vocal chords collapse
Oral sex
With broken gla**
Ruptured flesh
Ripped through the neck
Mutilate
Pulsing veins
Sliced windpipe
Flesh starts to rip
Gouging through skin
From the throat
Blood gushes
Glandular eruption
Blistered skin secretion
Wounds too deep to heal
In me
Torn trachea
Splintered skin
Down the throat
Choke
Lungs fill with blood
As vocal chords collapse
Oral sex, with broken glass

Overall about difficult moments of disappointment and vulnerability. Having hope and longing, while remaining optimistic for the future. Encourages the belief that with each new morning there is a chance for things to improve.
The chorus offers a glimmer of optimism and a chance at a resolution and redemption in the future.
Captures the rollercoaster of emotions of feeling lost while loving someone who is not there for you, feeling let down and abandoned while waiting for a lover. Lost with no direction, "Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair, Nowhere to go, I can go anywhere"
The bridge shows signs of longing and a plea for companionship. The Lyrics express a desire for authentic connection and the importance of Loving someone just as they are. "Just in passing, I'm not asking. That you be anyone but you”
Magical

corpse's oxidized razor masticator.....except it's glass. i love the middle, when it slows down and you hear the choking noises...ah, classic corpse.
ouch.
This reminds me of this time, when I was out on the piss, in this rock club, and me and my mate, were fucking about, talking about how "hard" we were, trying to go one better on each other, kind of Monty Pythonesque, like:
"Man, you think you're hard? I brush my teeth with brillo pads"
Then my mate would be like:
"Thats nothing, I don't bother brushing my teeth at all, I just wait for them to go rotten, then I knock them out of my head, with a claw hammer..."
Well, there was this kid stood next to us, who must have thought we were serious, so he tries to act all casual, walks in front of us, downs his beer and takes a bite out of the glass. He is standing there, trying to look really tough and cool, while he has tears in his eyes and a bit of blood trickling out of the cornor of his mouth.
My mate was like "erm, you might want to get that looked at mate..." and we turned away laughing, as he ran off...
lol guiffporn
The song's meaning is pretty clear. It is about forcing someone to eat glass. I'm sure no one needed my help on that one
This song is obviously about Star Wars. It describes in vivid detail the death of a fighter pilot as he is ejected from his vessel through the cockpit window.
of course Chris Barnes was high when he wrote this, hes out of his mind, though as sane as you or mw
come on was he high or what? as if sane people think of these things, let alone waste their time to write about it, record and produce it.
If you don't like it don't comment on it, simple as that.
