Unconfirmed Theory: The Sister Arc
Basically; the girl in gold rush and the girl in evermore are sisters caught in the mess of an affair
main songs that are connected: Gold Rush—Ivy—Evermore
- We all know that evermore is folklore’s sister record, but i think taylor was invitings us to look into it literally
- gold rush is the only song that mentions folklore with “my mind turns your life into folklore”—> NOT A COINCIDENCE THAT SHE JUST THREW THAT IN THERE
gold rush talks about a girl pining for someone seemingly loved by everyone, and it is clear that she does not have him yet. it is possible that she is longing to have an affair with her sister’s man, hence,,,, IVY
we know that ivy is about infidelity but its connection to gold rush is made stronger by its lyrics: “your touch brought forth an incandescent glow”
more proof that they are sisters- “old widow goes to the stone every day // my house of stone, your ivy grows” (‘old widow’ is her sister who, well, visits her every day. she is a widow because her marriage is basically already dead without her knowing kdksjsdjsjs)
CRAZY DETAIL: the sister in ivy says that her lover shall “drink her husband’s wine”.... more proof that they are sisters having the same dinner parties, possibly in the same compound lmao OK
“it’s a war, it’s a goddamn fight of my life” hell yeah it is lmao rip
Exhibit C: the poor sister’s POV, Evermore
“all was lost, sending signals to be double-crossed” :(
we know that ms evermore would be deeply hurt by her sister and her husband going behind her back... i mean WHAT ELSE COULD GIVE HER PAIN FOR EVERMORE ?///???
- there are possible connections to the other songs, (consider my evermore—> long story short theory i previously posted)
- and especially considering that ivy, tolerate it, and no body, no crime are rumored to be connected
- their connection still gives way to The Sister Arc considering the cheating sister seems afraid of her husband in ivy, and could very well feel that she is being tolerated instead of celebrated—-> leading to her having an affair with another man AND possibly being an accomplice in someone’s murder... her sister’s? Maybe!!!!
:>>>>> yea come back when i’m right
but also idk maybe u feel like confirming @taylorswift
