Taylor Swift - Babylon (Lyrics)

Please subscribe 🙏 Babylon by Taylor Swift Lyrics: The casino doesn't like when you run the tables And though the box is wrapped up nice, it's just a cage to you Those electric fences buzz A stallion flees the stable And that small town's even smaller now in your rearview You ran with all the wild things A liberated libertine who then longed for home Cause it's where you're from Aunt Virginia with her church dress on No elbows on the table And the neighbor's lawn always looked better Your hand-me-down sweater should've been from the mall And you hate this song But you wake up on the train with your headphones gone Then that melody is all you want You never knew that it was Babylon Til it was gone Give the people what they want then you keep it moving Make your plans and friends, a stranger's makeup on your tie Twenty watches in the safe cause your time is money Love is ice upon the ladder that you need to climb She captured your attention so free of all pretension It stopped you cold Because she loved you so Pretty as a picture that you didn't post Looking at you like you're made of solid gold Never official You mention you're single to the girls at the bar You hate this song But you wake up on the train with your headphones gone Then that melody is all you want You never knew that it was Babylon Til it was gone You're using nostalgia as a weapon to hurt yourself But darling, you end up hurting everybody else The self-harm of never being where you are It's bedtime but you're sitting in your car You're missing all the best parts And they're all at home She's hanging Christmas lights with your son Sneaking to the bathroom to call her mom And say it's not working It's just not worth it if we're not what he wants But you love this song You wake up on the train with your headphones gone Then that melody is all you want You never knew that it was Babylon And now, it's almost gone Aunt Virginia with her church dress on No elbows on the table And the neighbor's lawn always looked better (It's almost gone) Your hand-me-down sweater should've been from the mall But you love this song You wake up on the train and you're all alone Then that memory is all you want You never knew that it was Babylon Til it was gone #TaylorSwift #Babylon #lyrics #songlyrics #newsong #lyricvideo #newmusic
