43. "He's got my past frozen behind glass / Only I've got me" – "It'southward Time To Get - Bonus Track" from "Evermore"

This melancholy summation of Swift's public battle confronting music executive Scooter Braun for her masters (the reason she'south rerecording her beginning half-dozen studio albums) is heartbreakingly weary.

From the adult female who brought you "I'thousand a crumpled up piece of newspaper lying here," we bring you this glorious run. This song hits especially different during the coronavirus pandemic as a nation overrun with morbidity turns to music for solace.

19. "I didn't have information technology in myself to go with grace / 'Cause when I'd fight, yous used to tell me I was brave – "My Tears Ricochet" from "Folklore"

"Where the Wild Things Are" got the rewrite information technology never asked for, and nosotros are not lament.

Production on this album began in 2009, the yr Swift turned twenty, and wrapped in 2010. What a decade – and an age – the 2010s have been for her.

Looking back on 'Fearless':On its x-year anniversary, Taylor Swift'southward 'Fearless' is still a archetype

16. "'Cause I hear he's got his arm 'round a brand-new girl / I've been pickin' upward my heart, he's been pickin' upward her" – "Mr. Perfectly Fine (Taylor's Version) (From the Vault) from "Fearless" (Taylor'south Version)

We're not sure how Swift pulled this off but she actually picked up our hearts and threw them on the basis while we listened to these lyrics. All "Mr. Perfectly Fine" fellas out there should have notes.

15. "I can't decide if it'south a option: getting swept away" – "Treacherous" from "Scarlet"

*Swoons*

14. "With every guitar string scar on my manus / I accept this magnetic force of a human being to be my lover" – "Lover" from "Lover"

For longtime Swifties, there's nothing sweeter than hearing her triumphantly declare she's in love.

13. "And y'all wanna scream, 'don't call me kid, don't telephone call me baby / Wait at this godforsaken mess that y'all made me'"  – "Illicit Affairs" from "Folklore"

If y'all're non screaming forth to these lyrics every time, yous're doing it incorrect.

12."The road not taken looks existent good now" – "'Tis the Damn Season" from "Evermore"

Robert Frost who? Anyone else's spin of the often-referenced verse form would come off as cliché. Simply Swift's artful turn of phrase has us over here thinking about our (non-toxic) exes.

eleven. "They say all's well that ends well, simply I'k in a new hell / Every time you lot double-cross my mind" – "All Too Well (10 Minute Version) (Taylor'southward Version)" from "Red (Taylor's Version)"

The WORDPLAY. William Shakespeare himself could never.

10. "Time won't fly, information technology'south like I'm paralyzed past it / I'd like to be my old cocky over again, just I'm still trying to find it / Later on plaid shirt days and nights when you fabricated me your own / Now you post back my things and I walk dwelling lonely" – "All Also Well" from "Red"

It's a attestation that nosotros can't cut this downwards whatsoever shorter. "All As well Well" – and its extended cutting – wins everything. End of story.

ix. "You held your pride like you should have held me" – "The Story of Us" from "Speak Now"

Cruel, before savage became a part of our mainstream lexicon. Swift is the queen of the snappy plow of phrase.

eight. "But she wears short skirts / I wear T-shirts / She'southward cheer captain / And I'm on the bleachers" – "Y'all Belong With Me" from "Fearless"

Before "Miss Americana and the Heartbreak Prince," there was "You Vest With Me." Swift captures the high schoolhouse experience so effortlessly it'southward like we never graduated.

7. "They told me all of my cages were mental / So I got wasted like all my potential" – "This is Me Trying" from "Folklore"

Another beautifully written turn of phrase. She's yet got it, x years later on.

6. "Yous kept me like a hush-hush, but I kept you lot similar an adjuration" – "All As well Well (10 Minute Version) (Taylor'south Version)" from "Red (Taylor's Version)"

We cannot expect to scream this in a (fully-vaccinated) crowded bar ASAP. Now that's an oath.

5. "I'thou nevertheless a believer but I don't know why / I've never been a natural / All I practise is try, endeavor, endeavour – "Mirrorball" from "Folklore"

That repetitive "try, try, endeavour" sends the states spinning. We recommend checking out the Las Culturistas assay of "Folklore" rails-by-rail, if you haven't already, for an apt take on "Mirrorball" and Taylor Swift's incredible work ethic.

iv. "You said it was a great dearest, one for the ages / But if the story's over, why am I still writing pages?" – "Death By a Thousand Cuts" from "Lover"

The queen of breakdown songs used to worry about what would happen when she was happily in a relationship, but rejoiced when she woke upwards one day with lyrics in her mind that would eventually go "Cuts."

"I was like, 'information technology's still here! Yes!" she said in her NPR Tiny Desk Concert. "This song is my proof. I don't have to stop writing nearly heartbreak and misery. Which, for me, is incredible news."

three. "You tin can programme for a change in weather condition and fourth dimension / But I never planned on you changing your mind" – "Last Kiss" from "Speak Now"

Don't mind us, but we'll get sit on the flooring, listening to this one on repeat.

ii. "You made a rebel of a careless man's careful daughter / You are the best thing that's always been mine" – "Mine" from "Speak At present"

Eat your hearts out, careless men.

1. "You call me up over again just to break me like a promise / And so casually cruel in the proper noun of being honest" – "All Besides Well" from "Scarlet"

This jewel of a lyric has everything you could perchance want. Simile? Ingemination? Heartbreak? Check, check, check.
