The way you move is like a full on rainstorm And I’m a house of cards You say my name for the first time, baby And I fall in love in an empty bar
And you stood there in front of me Just close enough to touch Close enough to hope you couldn’t see What I was thinking of
CHORUS Drop everything now, meet me in the pouring rain Kiss me on the sidewalk, take away the pain Cause I see sparks fly whenever you smile Get me with those green eyes, baby, as the lights go down Gimme something that’ll haunt me when you’re not around Cause I see sparks fly whenever you smile
So reach out open-handed And lead me out to that floor Don’t need more paper lanterns Take me down, baby bring on the movie score
Because my heart is beating fast And you are beautiful And I could wait patiently but I really wish you would
CHORUS
I run my fingers through your hair And watch the lights go wild Just keep your beautiful eyes on me We’ll strike this match tonight
And lead me up the staircase Won’t you whisper soft and slow I’m captivated by you, baby Like a fireworks show
CHORUS
And the sparks fly Oh baby, smile And the sparks fly
Whenever this appears on my dash, I have to reblog it.
That line is in there because it’s not only the actual, literal narration of what happened in a particular relationship I was in, it’s also a metaphor. “Hit the brakes too soon could mean the literal sense of, we got in an accident and we had to deal with the aftermath. But also, the relationship ended sooner than it should’ve because there was a lot of fear involved. And that song touches on a huge sense of anxiety that was, kind of, coursing through that particular relationship, because we really felt the heat of every single person in the media thinking they could draw up the narrative of what we were going through and debate and speculate. I don’t think it’s ever going to be easy for me to find love and block out all those screaming voices.
Taylor Swift on the line “hit the brakes too soon, twenty stitches in a hospital room” (via itwasworththepain)
My brother is the one of the leaders of the non-profit organization ‘Limbitless’! They make prosthetic arms for kids in need because insurance refuses to pay for kids since they grow so fast. Him and his team put in 40 hours or more a week to provide for these kids! They have helped about 4 kids so far and are contacted daily with many other needs. The team is trying to raise as much money as they can for their organization so they can continue to help all the kids that contact them. Here are some pictures and links so you can read into it more!
