LOML Lyrics – Taylor Swift
LOML Lyrics
[Verse 1: Taylor Swift]
Who's gonna stop us from waltzing back into rekindled flames
If we know the steps anyway
We embroidered the memories of the time I was away
Stitching, "We were just kids, babe"
I said, "I don't mind, it takes time"
I thought I was better safe than starry-eyed
I felt a glow like this, never before and never since
[Chorus: Taylor Swift]
If you know it in one glimpse, it's legendary
You and I go from one kiss to getting married
Still alivе, killing time at the cemеtery
Never quite buried
[Post-Chorus: Taylor Swift]
And your suit and tie, in the nick of time
You low-down boy, you stand-up guy
Holy ghost, you told me I'm the love of your life
You said I'm the love of your life
About a million times
[Verse 2: Taylor Swift]
Who's gonna tell me the truth
When you blew in with the winds of fate
And told me I reformed you
When your impressionist paintings of heaven turned out to be fakes
Well, you took me to hell too
And all at once, the ink bleeds
A con man sells a fool a "get love quick" scheme
I felt a hole like this, never before and ever since
[Chorus: Taylor Swift]
If you know it in one glimpse, it's legendary
What we thought was for all time was momentary
Still alive, killing time at the cemetery
Never quite buried
[Post-Chorus: Taylor Swift]
You cinephile in black and white
All those plot twists and dynamite
Mr. Steal-Your-Girl, then make her cry
Said I'm the love of your life
[Bridge: Taylor Swift]
You sh!t-talked me under the table
Talking rings and talking cradles
I wish I could unrecall
How we almost had it all
Dancing phantoms on the terrace
Are they second-hand embarrassed
That I can't get out of bed?
'Cause something counterfeit's dead
It was legendary
It was momentary
It was unnecessary
Should've let it stay buried
[Chorus: Taylor Swift]
Oh, what a valiant roar
What a bland goodbye
The coward claimed he was a lion
I'm combing through the braids of lies
I'll never leave, never mind
Our field of dreams engulfed in fire
Your arson's match, your somber eyes
And I'll still see until I die
You're the loss of my life
LOML Lyrics Meaning
The lyrics of "LOML" by Taylor Swift explores the complexity of a romantic relationship that oscillates between intense love and profound disappointment. The song delves into themes of nostalgia, betrayal, and the struggle to reconcile past memories with present reality. Through vivid imagery and emotional storytelling, Swift reflects on the highs and lows of love, ultimately questioning the authenticity of the connection and acknowledging the pain of letting go.
[Verse 1]
In the first verse, Swift reflects on the temptation to return to a past romance despite the pain it caused. She describes the memories of their time apart as embroidered, suggesting they've been embellished with sentimentality. Despite acknowledging that they were young and naive ("just kids"), she grapples with the idea of rekindling the flame. However, she also acknowledges a sense of caution, feeling safer to guard her heart rather than succumb to romantic illusions.
[Chorus]
The chorus highlights the enduring allure of a love that feels legendary, despite its impermanence. Swift contrasts the intensity of their connection ("one kiss to getting married") with the reality of their current situation. Even in death ("killing time at the cemetery"), their bond remains unresolved and lingering, symbolizing the lingering presence of their past love.
[Post-Chorus]
In the post-chorus, Swift juxtaposes contradictory images of her partner. She acknowledges his duality, describing him as both a "low-down boy" and a "stand-up guy." Despite his flaws, he repeatedly professes her love, emphasizing the persistence of his affection even amidst turmoil.
[Verse 2]
The second verse delves deeper into the deception and disillusionment within the relationship. Swift confronts the lies and manipulation she endured, likening her partner to a con artist selling false promises of love. She reflects on the pain of betrayal and the realization that their once-perceived paradise was merely an illusion.
[Chorus]
The second chorus echoes the sentiments of the first, emphasizing the fleeting nature of their love. Despite its transient nature, the impact of their connection lingers, haunting Swift like a ghost from the past.
[Post-Chorus]
Continuing from the previous post-chorus, Swift reflects on her partner's cinematic charm and manipulative tendencies. She acknowledges his ability to captivate and deceive, ultimately recognizing her own role in the cycle of love and betrayal.
[Bridge]
The bridge serves as a moment of reflection and resignation for Swift. She confronts the painful truth of their relationship, acknowledging the futility of trying to reclaim what was lost. Despite the allure of nostalgia, she realizes the need to let go and move forward.
[Chorus]
In the final chorus, Swift grapples with conflicting emotions of anger and acceptance. She metaphorically compares her partner to a coward masquerading as a lion, highlighting the disparity between his bravado and his true character. Despite the destruction their love wrought, Swift acknowledges that she will always carry the memories with her.
