Official ‘Afterglow’ Lyrics
Written by Taylor Swift, Louis Bell & Adam King Feeney
I blew things out of proportion
Now you’re blue
Put you in jail for something you didn’t do
I pinned your hands behind your back, oh
Thought I had reason to attack, but no
Fighting with a true love
Is boxing with no gloves
Chemistry ‘til it blows up, ‘til there’s no us
Why’d I have to break what I love so much?
It’s on your face
And I’m to blame
I need to say Hey, it’s all me, in my head
I’m the one who burned us down
But it’s not what I meant
Sorry that I hurt you
I don’t wanna do
I don’t wanna do this to you
I don’t wanna lose
I don’t wanna lose this with you
I need to say
Hey it’s all me, just don’t go
Meet me in the afterglow It’s so excruciating to see you low
Just want to lift you up and not let you go
This ultraviolet morning light below
Tells me this love is worth the fight, oh
I lived like an island
Punished you with silence
Went off like sirens, just crying
Why’d I have to break what I love so much
It’s on your face
Don’t walk away I need to say Chorus Tell me that you’re still mine
Tell me that we’ll be just fine
Even when I lose my mind
I need to say
Tell me that it’s not my fault
Tell me that I’m all you want
Even when I break your heart
I need to say
Chorus

all of her songs just feel different after watching Miss Americana.
-
Can’t believe this era is over omfg.
-
"Fighting with a true love is boxing with no gloves". I just realised this line means fighting with a true love hurts them, but it hurts you too.
-
Afterglow is the perfect depiction of moving away from being in abusive and traumatic relationship for so long to a healthy one. Your brain goes survival mode. You start looking out for signs because that’s what you’re accustomed to — waiting for something to break, to stir up this calmness. So this is a gentle reminder to please heal yourself first, so you will not bleed on people who didn’t cut you.

everyone: "taylor only sings about her exes and never takes any blame for anything" taylor:
-
Meet me: a) in the afterglow b) behind the mall
-
2:12 is the kind of validation every lover needs.
-
And people say Taylor only plays the victim. In Back To December she apologizes to her ex. The Archer and Daylight is talking about what she learned from her relationships and how she made some mistakes in some of them and how she could use that to improve, and this song is about apologizing to her love one. She’s honestly really mature but people don’t give her credit because the only song the listen to is We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together. Imagine if people listen to her deep cuts like The Lakes and Cruel Summer, then they’ll all love her

“Sorry THAT I hurt you” Just noticed she doesn’t say “if” i hurt you.
-
Wow TAYLOR UPLOADING ALL HER MUSIC IN YOUTUBE. HOW. TO. BREATHE.
-
-

-
"Punished you with silence" Thats the most cruel way to punish someone..
-

-

-
NOT ME HERE AFTER THE BREAKUP 💔
-
#1 UNDERRATED SONG ON LOVER.
-
This is the best after-a-fight song I have heard in my entire life.
-
Okay but "Lover (Album)" is Underrated.
-
Wow the breakup is heartbreaking even for us fans
