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.

81 81 the number for heaven
For your heart, I'm the only contender
Gonna take you for a meal at Hot N' Tenda
So let me fill you in, in case you didn't know
It's a simple as a boat, you get in, and you row
There's a restaurant at 39 Leece Street
Every time I eat there's a five star treat
They've got special offers and student deals
Thirst quenching drinks and delicious meals
Chicken Burger, fries and 7up
Or if you're feelin' crazy get A KEBAB IN A CUP

For your heart, I'm the only contender
Gonna take you for a meal at Hot N' Tenda
I see you baby, across the dancefloor
Your crew asking you 'what the long face for?'
You're hungry, girl, I can see that
So come with me for dinner I'm a real cool cat
Are you vegetarian or are you a vegan?
Either way, girl, you gonna be eatin'
Their menu's range is quite admirable
Too bad their services are not hireable.
(You know.. for weddings. Wink Wink.)

Now, I always have this argument with my crew about where we're gonna eat.
Kayla's like, 'lets go to Burger King'. (group laughter, 'aaaah')
Then Nick's all, 'how about KFC?' ('eeeeeeeee')
I know, I know. There's only one place for Mad Mike.

Holiday

@[Diderik:33655] "Your a holiday!" Was a popular term used in the 50s/60s to compliment someone on their all around. For example, not only are they beautiful, but they are fun and kind too ... just an all around "holiday".
I think your first comment is closer to being accurate. The singer/song writers state "Millions of eyes can see, yet why am i so blind!? When the someone else is me, its unkind its unkind". I believe hes referring to the girl toying with him and using him. He wants something deeper with her, thats why he allows himself to be as a puppet (even though for her fun and games) as long as it makes her happy. But he knows deep down that she doesnt really want to be serious with him and thats what makes him.

How would you describe the feeling of being in love? For Ed Sheeran, the word is “Magical.” in HIS three-minute album opener, he makes an attempt to capture the beauty and delicacy of true love with words. He describes the magic of it all over a bright Pop song produced by Aaron Dessner.
