Suburban Legends (Taylor's Version) (From the Vault)

[00:00.05] You had people who called you on unmarked numbers

[00:05.19] In my peripheral vision

[00:08.12] I let it slide like a hose on a slippery plastic summer

[00:13.43] All was quickly forgiven

[00:16.37] You were so magnetic, it was almost obnoxious

[00:22.21] Flush with the currency of cool

[00:24.41] I was always turning out my empty pockets

[00:30.00] And when it came to you

[00:32.39] I didn't come here to make friends

[00:35.91] We were born to be suburban legends

[00:39.90] When you hold me, it holds me together

[00:43.88] And you kiss me in a way that's gonna screw me up forever

[00:48.93] I had the fantasy that maybe our mismatched star signs

[00:54.24] Would surprise the whole school

[00:56.90] When I ended up back at our class reunion

[01:02.74] Walking in with you

[01:05.13] You'd be more than a chapter in my old diaries

[01:10.71] With the pages ripped out

[01:13.36] I am standing in a 1950s gymnasium

[01:18.68] And I can still see you now

[01:20.89] I didn't come here to make friends

[01:24.63] We were born to be suburban legends

[01:28.62] When you hold me, it holds me together

[01:32.73] And you kiss me in a way that's gonna screw me up forever

[01:37.31] I know that you still remember

[01:41.02] We were born to be national treasures

[01:45.01] When you told me we'd get back together

[01:49.00] And you kissed me in a way that's gonna screw me up forever

[01:54.04] Tick-tock on the clock, I pace down your block

[01:58.31] I broke my own heart 'cause you were too polite to do it

[02:02.29] Waves crash on the shore, I dash to the door

[02:06.27] You don't knock anymore, and my whole life's ruined

[02:10.53] Tick-tock on the clock, I pace down your block

[02:14.51] I broke my own heart 'cause you were too polite to do it

[02:18.49] Waves crash to the shore, I dash to the door

[02:22.74] You don't knock anymore, and I always knew it

[02:33.22] And my life had been ruined
