Zack Kouns Rewrites Taylor Swift Lyrics (October 2015)
by Zack Kouns


Zack Kouns:
Fearful

I pick at my skin and wash my hands a lot
I don't really like to be touched
I'm haunted by these violent dreams all night
So, I don't really sleep that much
Daddy's home and daddy hits mom
He'll hit me too and it don't matter what for
So I just stay up in my room
Turn off the lights and lock my door

Chorus:
I'm subject to the tyrant's rule
My head's down, I'm fearful

Last night I dreamt that daddy died
The whole town came to grieve and praise his name
I poured gasoline on him and set him on fire
and the whole fucking church went up in flames
All those fucking hypocrites made for the door
Yelling and shoving and scrambling like mad
I just sat down cross legged on the altar
and we burned up together me and my dad

Chorus:
My hands are trembling, my heart is cruel
My head's down, I'm fearful

There's this fat girl at school named Courtney
She tried to kiss me once but I turned away
She got real embarassed and started to cry
I wanted to comfort her but I didn't know what to say
Now her eyes follow me down the hallway
She stares at me like a mistreated dog
Courtney, you can kiss me as much as you like
But you'll never find a princess in this frightened frog

Chorus:
So, I try and disappear at school
My head's down, I'm fearful



Taylor Swift:
Fearless
There's somethin' bout the way
The street looks when it's just rained
There's a glow off the pavement
Walk me to the car
And you know I wanna ask you to dance right there
In the middle of the parking lot
Yeah
We're drivin' down the road
I wonder if you know
I'm tryin' so hard not to get caught up now
But you're just so cool
Run your hands through your hair
Absent mindedly makin' me want you
And I don't know how it gets better than this
You take my hand and drag me head first
Fearless
And I don't know why but with you I'd dance
In a storm in my best dress
Fearless
So baby drive slow
Til we run out of road in this one horse town
I wanna stay right here in this passenger's seat
You put your eyes on me
In this moment now capture it remember it
And I don't know how it gets better than this
You take my hand and drag me head first
Fearless
And I don't know why but with you I'd dance
In a storm in my best dress
Fearless
Well you stood there with me in the doorway
my hands shake
I'm not usually this way but
You pull me in and I'm a little more brave
It's the first kiss, it's flawless, really something, it's fearless.
And I don't know how it gets better than this
You take my hand and drag me head first
Fearless
And I don't know why but with you I'd dance
In a storm in my best dress
Fearless
