Down Bad Ttpd - Tumblr Posts
TTPD is about IWTV
(Part Two)
This is a thread connecting Anne Rice’s The Vampire Chronicles to Taylor Swift’s most recent album, The Tortured Poet’s Department. Part One will be linked at the bottom, if you want to start from the beginning.
3.) My Boy Only Breaks His Favorite Toys
Lestat is totally the one singing this song. His sad boys (Nicki and Louis) just love to break his little Ken doll heart, don’t they?
“Oh, here we go again, The voices in his head, called the rain to end our days of wild”
“My boy only breaks his favorite toys”
“And I'll tell you that he runs because he loves me, he loves me”
“Cause you should've seen him when he first got me”
“Cause he took me out of my box, stole my tortured heart, left all these broken parts”
4.) Down Bad
So this one could go SO MANY DIFFERENT ways. I’m choosing to give it to Claudia, though. I think the pouty, youthful feel of the song fits her perfectly. This is about her losing Charlie, her first love, and having to deal with how her life will never be the same now that she knows what she’s missing.
“For a moment, I was heavenstruck”
“Showed me that this world is bigger than us, then sent me back where I came from”
“Now I'm down bad, cryin' at the gym”
“Everything comes out teenage petulance”
“Fuck it if I can’t have him”
“I might just die, it would make no difference”
“Cause fuck it, I was in love”
