Baby I know it's time to go but
I've been meaning to tell you for some time
How special you are, the closeness I feel for you, girl
Oh, the one thing I need to know, is do you feel it too?
'Cause every night I close my eyes
And you're all I'm thinking about

'Cause it's so nice to go to sleep
With love under my pillow
It's so nice to know that someone cares
I hold you close to me

At night, 'til the morning light
The best of our words, are here with me
Love, under my pillow

Baby when I held your hand
Well you showed me that you cared
'Cause I felt my heart leap out from my head to my feet
I felt like I wanted to give you the world
If only it was mine to give
'Cause without your loving I can't live

It's so nice to go to sleep
With love under my pillow
It's so nice to know that someone cares
I hold you close to me
At night, 'til the morning light
I have all your words
Right here with me
Under my pillow

'Cause I no longer have to be alone - anymore
And I close my eyes and I shut the door
I turn up my favourite song
And baby I sing along
How can anything be so right
Nothin', nothin' at all is wrong

It's so nice to go to sleep
With love under my pillow
It's so nice... It's so nice...
I hold you close to me

At night, 'til the morning light
The best of our words, are here with me
Under my pillow

I got your words lying under my pillow
I got them all under my pillow
I got your words lying under my pillow

Blank Space
Taylor Swift
This song is Swift's response to the negative reputation the media has given her. "I can make the bad guys good for a weekend" - the bad guys are the paparazzi to Swift, but are good to the "player" since association with Swift immediately gives publicity. Any publicity is good publicity and Swift knows this. "You can tell me when it's over" - the tabloids rumor relationships are over before the couple announces it officially. With this song Swift is portraying the way she is portrayed by the media. It is a sarcastic jab at how she views herself and how her "ex-lovers" only wanted to be with her to increase their fame. I applaud the brilliance in writing about how you always write about relationships. It is expected so Swift is giving the media what they want and profiting off the attention.

Anti-Hero
Taylor Swift
I believe this is another amazingly on point and nuanced commentary on the insanity that follows emotionally abusive relationships. The abuser has no anxieties, no emotional pain, or salience/memory for that matter, so the survivor appears to be the crazy one, obsessed with the abuse and that buzzword that seems to ignite arguments about diagnosing people without a degree, etc. funny how you say the words domestic violence, abuse, abuse survivor and boom the subject changes. Anyways, I especially relate to her midnights becoming afternoons, complex PTSD often leads to this phenomenon, whether due to purposeful sleep deprivation by the abuser, or just hyper vigilance associated with the PTSD, along with the fear of facing people, especially your loved ones, who Never actually understand, even if they try, because all they see is you, on fire, screaming about the arsonist that no one ever sees, and who has been spreading lies about your alleged mental instability, deceptive personality, etc. the whole time. While the last thing survivors need is more blame, our society supports a narrative that blames the objectively innocent party because the blatantly guilty party has spent their entire lives fabricating a persona and we’re just being human, and human psychology is quite counterintuitive especially in the context of trauma. Look at Amber Heard. Vilified and not believed, regardless of what any abuse survivor could recognize as a fellow survivor instantly. But Johnny depp is a malignant narcissist, a man, and wealthy as all get out. It’s sick.
