Songs like I'm Only Me When I'm With You, The Best Day, Sad Beautiful Tragic (which I have a theory is about her parents divorcing), and Soon You'll Get Better are all track 12s on their respective albums, and they're all about people in her family.

@Anime men hit different dorothea is definetly not about selena??? Tis the damn season is the song that tells the perspective of dorothea and it's clear that the characters are in love. And ivy talks about a woman having an affair with another person, and people like to interpretate it as a lesbian affair. Also stop being pressed. Literally no one said that there's something wrong with being straight. Ash even liked the comment

[@idontevenknow2717]

alright here's everything about the album/storylines in it, consider this a masterpost: this album, although a sister album, has completely different characters and stories separate from the storylines in folklore, so no love triangle. it also isn't songs that were leftover from folklore. taylor released folklore and couldn't stop writing songs so all of these were made after it was already released. taylor said she wrote happiness literally a week ago. so it's basically a whole other album separate from folklore but just very similar structure, production, and style. now onto the songs: willow: this one's pretty autobiographical and generally about Taylor and joe's relationship, so no characters/storylines. has similar themes/references to delicate and cruel summer, which is also about their relationship. champagne problems: this a storyline! this is about a couple in college who think their relationship is going two very different ways, one is about to break things off (this is the person the perspective of the song is in) and the other was planning to propose (hence the mom's ring in the pocket and the rejected proposal). gold rush: this one is generally biographical as well. This one could be compared to delicate in the sense that she was scared to get into a relationship at that time in her life when she met joe. Similar themes to delicate and gorgeous, where she would imagine how nice a life with him would be but stopping herself because it would be too risky. Taylor also commented that the song is meant to sound like someone coming in and out of a daydream (one about the pretend relationship in their heads), which is why one part sounds dreamy and the other is more rapid and harsh (to symbolize coming back to reality). Tis the damn season: this is a storyline song about someone (it’s the character dorothea) coming home for the holidays and revisiting a flame they always end up seeing when they come home. Taylor said that the character is a struggling actress who moved to LA to try and have a career (hence the bridge about ‘if i ever make it’). The person who they keep hooking up with gets a song from their perspective too, which is later in the album called dorothea. Tolerate it: this is a storyline song that’s a little vague and no recurring characters. A lot of people are seeing an old-timey setting about a very mistreated housewife who constantly does things to make their partner feel loved and special but they do nothing in return except accept their praise. The bridge goes into them threatening to leave their partner but we are left not knowing what they will decide. No body, no crime: pretty straightforward… taylor sings from the perspective of the friend of Este who has a husband who is cheating. The first verse is them saying ‘i know he’s cheating i just need to prove it’, the second verse is about the husband finding out his wife knows he’s cheating and killing her, the final part is about taylor knowing he killed her and then killing him in return. Happiness: a lof of people are theorizing that this is about taylor relationship with her former record label owner scott. My tears ricochet is about him and this is about her evolving and growing and moving on. The line ‘I can't make it go away by making you a villain’ is about her realizing she cant stay mad at him forever and she needs to forgive and move on from him betraying her and selling her masters. Dorothea: storyline and character! This is from the perspective of the hometown flame dorothea keeps coming back to. The song is basically saying that no matter what they’ll always be there for her when she needs them to be. Coney island: storyline song about two people in a relationship who just can’t really get on the same page, they show up for each other at different times, they move on, they come back… a constant struggle over the years form when they were teenagers to adults… Ivy: this a storyline song told from the perspective of a woman who is cheating on her husband with another person, and realizing she has to make a decision to leave or stay. Cowboy like me: tells the story of two swindlers who fall in love through a cat-and-mouse fling “while hanging out at fancy resorts trying to score rich romantic beneficiaries”, also the male background vocals are marcus mumford from mumford & sons. She recorded the song in his studio and they’ve been friends for years so he just hoped on the song! Long story short: autobiographical about her and joe and how much she’s grown since the whole 2016 era of her life. marjorie : a song dedicated to her late grandmother who passed away when she was 13. Her grandmother was a famous opera singer and is credited in the song because, towards the end, she has a background vocal when taylor sings ‘i’d think you were singing to me now’. Closure: this seems to be autobiographical and could be about many people who have wronged her in the past, my personal belief being kanye/scooter. Both of them have publicly reached out to her and tried to look good and play the victim/be the bigger person and this song is basically saying ‘i dont need to make you feel better about yourself so you could sleep at night, you did wrong and i can’t help you’ Evermore: not a lot of theories about this one yet, but whether it’s autobiographical or not, it seems to be about the journey from a period of deep depression and hurt to a place of hope and coming out of that!

[@samanthaschumacher615]

Okay thank you for this but I’m not sure if I see the love triangle. They all feel like separate stories to me. Champagne problems is a relationship where one person turns down a proposal because they are scared of commitment, as you said. ‘‘Tis the damn season to me felt more like a couple who broke up after high school but during the holidays always come back together because they can’t get over that first love even though their life paths weren’t compatible. Dorothea seems more like the perspective of best friends that grew apart and one of them is saying I’ll always be there for you (also theories this is about Selena Gomez). Anyways, loved your interpretations. These were just mine when I was listening to it! I don’t necessarily think this album is as focused on the storytelling and the continuation of stories as Folklore was. This one felt way more like Taylor or just relatable feelings in general about love lost or missed. That’s just my interpretation though.

there is a theory that “closure” is abt her old record company, big machine records, hence the machine-like sounds in the bg. maybe taylor got a letter from them after folklore came out, perhaps they congratulated her and she was just like f u guys, i’m doing better, i don’t need u. just smth i saw:)
