To me, “FEARLESS” is not the absence of fear. It’s not being completely unafraid. To me, FEARLESS is having fears. FEARLESS is having doubts. Lots of them. To me, FEARLESS is living in spite of those things that scare you to death. FEARLESS is falling madly in love again, even though you’ve been hurt before. FEARLESS is walking into your freshmen year of high school at fifteen. FEARLESS is getting back up and fighting for what you want over and over again… even though every time you’ve tried before, you’ve lost. It’s FEARLESS to have faith that someday things will change. FEARLESS is having the courage to say goodbye to someone who only hurts you, even if you can’t breathe without them. I think it’s FEARLESS to fall for your best friend, even though he’s in love with someone else. And when... someone apologizes to you enough times for things they’ll never stop doing, I think it’s FEARLESS to stop believing them. It’s FEARLESS to say “you’re NOT sorry”, and walk away. I think loving someone despite what people think is FEARLESS. I think allowing yourself to cry on the bathroom floor is FEARLESS. Letting go is FEARLESS. Then, moving on and being alright…That’sFEARLESS too. But no matter what love throws at you, you have to believe in it. You have to believe in love stories and prince charmings and happily ever after. That’s why I write these songs. Because I think love is FEARLESS.- Taylor Swift


I'm surrounded by nothing.
It's comfortable here.
I feel the pain slowly disappear.
Darkness on darkness,
black on black.
Here you walk away,
and never look back.
I'm sitting on the floor
with my knees to my chest.

The only thing I hear
are the words in my head.
The words you spoke,
letting me go.
The words that I'm afraid to know.

Here I see nothing,
except your face.
Whenever I close my eyes,
it takes me to that place.
Where you kissed me for the very first time.
It's the place I swore I'd never find.

I can feel nothing except your touch.
I pull my knees closer,
this is just too much.
I squeeze my eyes shut and don't notice the tears.
I feel empty without you here.

I can taste nothing except your lips.
Meeting against mine,
our very last kiss.
We're locked in time


The darkness consumes me and pulls me deeper.
It feels like I'm drowning with you not here.
Everything's a lie,
everything's a mess.
I loved you all I had,
no more, no less.
Now every time I see you,
in my mind,
or for real.
I'm dying to tell you just how I feel.

I'm surrounded by nothing.
It's suffocating me here.
I feel the pain,
it feels so real.
Darkness on darkness,
black on black.
Here you walk away,
and never look back.
