‘ivy’ is one of the more abstract songs of Taylor Swift’s evermore. It is a song of mystery and intrigue and is a slow love story between Swift and another. This tumultuous marriage has the woman in love with another, but she is married. “My pain fits in the palm of your freezing hand/Taking mine, but it’s been promised to another” shows that the woman may be in love with him, but her hand is spoken for already. No matter how she tries to fight it, “your ivy grows,” and she is now “covered in you.” This is a story of forbidden love and what happens when one woman loves another. While it may not be the right thing to do, the reality is she cannot change her heart.
