dark academic activities (taylor's version):
stand in a nice dress staring at the sunset
move the furniture so you can dance
meet someone where the spirit meets the bones
book the night train (for a reason)
draw hearts in the byline
use your best colors for a portrait
stare out an open window catching your death
sit in a corner you haunt
go to the stone every day, grieve for the living
put the money in a bag and steal the keys
if someone asks you to dance, say dancing is a dangerous game
clean enough houses to know how to cover up a scene
sneak in through the garden gate
cry tears of mascara in the bathroom
wake up in the middle of the night and feel time moving
set off, but not without your muse
have a sad, beautiful, tragic love affair
dance in a storm in your best dress, fearless
sip coffee like you're on a late night show
be fine with your spite and your tears and your beers and your candles
see a film before and dislike the ending
fall behind all your classmates and end up here
