The Black Dog (Explicit)

The Black Dog (Explicit) - Taylor Swift

Lyrics by：Taylor Swift

Composed by：Taylor Swift

Produced by：Jack Antonoff/Taylor Swift

I am someone who until recent events

You shared your secrets with

And your location

You forgot to turn it off

And so I watch as you walk

Into some bar called The Black Dog

And pierce new holes in my heart

You forgot to turn it off

And it hits me

I just don't understand

How you don't miss me

In The Black Dog

When someone plays 'The Starting Line' and you jump up

But she's too young to know this song

That was intertwined in the magic fabric of our dreaming

Old habits die screaming

I move through the world with the heartbroken

My longings stay unspoken

And I may never open up the way I did for you

And all of those best laid plans

You said I needed a brave man

Then proceeded to play him

Until I believed it too

And it kills me

I just don't understand

How you don't miss me

In the shower

And remember

How my rain-soaked body was shaking

Do you hate me

Was it hazing

For a cruel fraternity I pledged

And I still mean it

Old habits die screaming

Six weeks of breathing clean air

I still miss the smoke

Were you making fun of me with some esoteric joke

Now I want to sell my house and set fire to all my clothes

And hire a priest to come and exorcise my demons

Even if I die screaming

And I hope you hear it

And I hope it's ******

In The Black Dog

When someone plays The Starting Line and you jump up

But she's too young to know this song

That was intertwined in the tragic fabric of our dreaming

'Cause tail between your legs you're leaving

And I still can't believe it

'Cause old habits die screaming
