Taylor Swift - Dear Reader lyrics

Dear reader,

If it feels like a trap 

You’re already in one 

Dear reader, 

Get out your map

Pick somewhere and just run 

Dear reader, 

Burn all the files, desert all your past lives 

And if you don’t recognize yourself 

That means you did it right 

 

Never take advice from someone who’s falling apart 

Never take advice from someone who’s falling apart 

 

Dear reader,

Bend when you can

Snap when you have to 

Dear reader,

You don’t have to answer

Just ‘cause they asked you 

Dear reader, 

The greatest of luxuries is your secrets

Dear reader, 

When you aim at the devil 

Make sure you don’t miss 

 

Never take advice from someone who’s falling apart 

Never take advice from someone who’s falling apart 

 

So I wander through these nights 

I prefer hiding in plain sight 

My fourth drink in my hand 

These desperate prayers of a cursed man

 

Spilling out to you for free 

But darling, darling, please 

You wouldn’t take my word for it 

If you knew who was talking 

If you knew where I was walking 

To a house, not a home, all alone 

Cause nobody’s there 

Where I pace in my pen and 

my friends found friends who care 

No one sees when you lose 

when you’re playing solitaire 

 

You should find another guiding light 

Guiding light 

But I shine so bright 

You should find another guiding light 

Guiding light 

But I shine so bright …
