I think every teenage girl feels this way. Taylor Swift just knows how to relate to the girl mind, and I swear to God she writes songs about my life. Want examples? Here are some, and don't even try to tell me they don't:
..........................................................................................................................................................................
Teardrops On My Guitar:
"He's the reason for the teardrops on my guitar, the only one who's got enough of me to break my heart. He's the time taken up, and he's all that I need to fall into.."
Tell Me Why
"I'm sick and tired of your attitude, I'm feelin like I don't know you. You tell me that you love me, then cut me down. And I need you like a heartbeat, but you know you got a mean streak, makes me run for cover when you're around. So here's to you and your temper.."
Tied Together With A Smile
"Says the only one who doesn't see your beauty is the face in the mirror lookin back at you....And you're tied together with a smile, but you're coming undone."
Sparks Fly
"And you stood there in front of me just close enough to touch. Close enough to hope you couldn't see what I was thinking of. Drop everything now, meet me in the pouring rain. Kiss me on the sidewalk, take away the pain. Cause I see sparks fly whenever you smile."
A Place In This World
"I'm alone, on my own, and that's all I know. I'll be wrong, I'll be strong. Oh, but life goes on. I'm just a girl tryin' to find her place in this world."
Mary's Song (Oh My My My)
"I was sixteen when suddenly I wasn't the little girl you used to see, but your eyes still shine like pretty lights. And our daddys used to joke about the two of us growing up and falling in love and our mamas smiled and rolled their eyes and said 'oh my my my'"
Forever And Always
"you looked me in the eye and told me you loved me. were you just kidding? Cause it seems to me this thing is breaking down, we almost never speak. I don't feel welcome anymore. Baby, what happened? Please tell me cause one second it was perfect, now I'm halfway out the door."
I'm Only Me When I'm With You
"I'm only up when you're not down, don't wanna fly when you're still on the ground. It's like no matter what I do, you drive me crazy half the time. the other half I'm only tryin to let you know that what I feel is true. And I'm only me when I'm with you."
You Belong With Me
"She wears short skirts, I wear t-shirts. She's cheer captain and i'm on the bleachers dreaming of the day when you wake up and find that what you're looking for has been here the whole time. Can't you see that I'm the one who understands you? Been here all along so why can't you see you belong with me?
Mean
"Someday I'll be living in a bige ole city and all you're ever gonna be is mean. Someday I'll be big enough so you can't hit me, and all you're ever gonna be is mean. Why you gotta be so mean?"
Change
"Well it's a sad picture. The final blow hits ya. Somebody else gets what you wanted, it can't end. You know it's all the same, another time and place. Repeat in history and you're getting sick of it."
Stay Beautiful
"Corey finds another way to be the highlight of my day. I'm takin pictures in my mind so I can save them for a rainy day. It's hard to make a conversation when he's taking my breath away."
Cold As You
"And now that I'm sitting here thinking it through, I've never been anywhere cold as you."
Better Than Revenge
"She looks at life like it's a party and she's on the list. She looks at me like I'm a trend and she's 'so over it'...But sophistication isn't what you wear or who you know or pushing people down to get you where you want to go. They don't teach you that in prep school, so I'ts up to me. But no amount of vintage dresses gives you dignity."
Jump Then Fall
I like the way I can't keep my focus. I watch you talk and you didn't notice that I hear your words, but all I can think is 'we should be together'."
Long Live
If you'll take a moment, promise me this. That you'll stand by me forever, but if God forbid fate should step in and force us into a goodbye. If you have children someday, when they point to the pictures, please tell them my name. Tell them how the crowds went wild. Tell them how I hope they shine."
The Story Of Us
"I used to think one day we'd tell the story of us. how we met and the sparks flew instantly. And people would say we're the lucky ones. I used to know my place was the spot next to you, now i'm searching the room for an empty seat because lately, I don't even know what page you're on."
.........................................................................................................................................................................
Yes, I'm 99.999% sure Taylor Swift is secretly following me around with a songwriting book and an acoustic guitar.
P.S- Dear Taylor, if you could release a song about reconnecting with an old friend and then going to prom with him, it would be greatly appreciated. For some reason, the music world is lacking one of those. It happens all the time.
