why isn’t anyone talking about the albatross? you’re told to stay away from her, but she keeps haunting you. she’s the mastermind who anoints you with liquor. you can try to lock her up, but she’s the poison you picked. you cannot cage her. she is compared to the devil for being cautious. she ultimately still flies free and takes you with her to protect you. it’s like imgonnagetyouback meets cassandra, guilty as sin meets but daddy I love him, because she’s felt equally caged by love and fame.

i am so proud of her for making a very adult album for adults to listen to. i feel like she’s been held to such an insane standard for so long because people expect her music to be palatable to young audiences and specifically young girls. and she doesn’t necessarily owe that to anyone…it’s been really cool to see her embrace her adulthood more in work like folklore, evermore, and midnights, and i feel the tortured poets department is the most mature thing she’s put out. there’s no performance this time, and an astonishingly low amount of people pleasing because she’s laid it all out there, take it or leave it. honest, honest, and so very honest. i LOVE how adult this record is

"So, they killed Cassandra first 'cause she feared the worst
And tried to tell the town
So they filled my cell with snakes, I regret to say
Do you believe me now?"

Flesh and blood amongst war machines
You're the new god we're worshipping
Promise to be dazzling"
