Taylor Swift's 'tolerate it' is a story of a tragic romance and how one woman is wondering how her partner can tolerate their relationship any more. All she can do is sit by and wonder how her partner can handle it day in and out. She sings, "I sit and watch you/…I sit and listen/…I know my love should be celebrated/ But you tolerate it". This shows how the woman in the song keeps faking it, hoping something changes, but it never does. On the other hand, she also wonders what would happen if she just left, "Took this dagger in me and removed it?/ Gain the weight of you then lose it/…But you tolerate it". While she keeps wondering what would happen if she left this relationship, she knows that her partner does not feel the same as he sits by and tolerates the situation. This is a song whose melancholic story makes you wonder how love could make you feel so numb and why the woman has not left an apparently loveless relationship.
