Bearding evidence in Midnight Rain???

So I was listening to Midnight Rain and suddenly realized that this song might refer to the relationship between Taylor and Joe (or whoever she in a public relationship with). This song reveals the reasons why they stop acting to be a couple: while Taylor is “chasing her own fame” (that means she must keep her public image of being straight), the beard gets tired of all the play pretend and wants his normal , “comfortable” life back(“he wanted a bride”). This can also explain why they never think about each other, expect when she is on TV (her existence will only be noticed when he sees her as a celebrity) or when “on midnights like this” (personally I think the midnights refer to time for contemplation, when Taylor looks back on her past and wonders if she has made choices wisely). She regrets involving the beard into this PR because they are different people. She describes her inner world as “a wasteland”, full of constraint, self-showing and disguise, but the beard has no secrets to hide. She “broke his heart”, cause she has made him her accomplice, but he doesn’t have to go through all this. So she feels bad and sorry for what she has done-and this song is a confession.
