Taylor Swift is known for writing and singing songs about her relationships. Although in the past few years she's transitioned from country to pop, every true fan who has followed her from her debut album knows that Taylor Swift is an artist through and through.
Since she was a little girl she has been writing poems, which then became songwriting. Some of her best hits such as "Love Story" "All Too Well" and "You Belong With Me" were mainly written by her. She undoubtedly has a way with words and seems to have a song for every single relationship scenario. Whether you're recovering from a breakup or are falling head over heels, Taylor Swift has a song for you to scream at the top of your lungs to, or to cry if need be.
Taylor Swift's lyrics, when taken out of the context of the music, her lyrics are beautiful and meaningful and read like poetry. Here are some of my favorite lines, all which manage to pull heartstrings:
And you call me up again just to break me like a promise / So casually cruel in the name of being honest
All Too Well from the Red album
In dreams, I meet you in warm conversation / We both wake in lonely beds, different cities / And time is taking its sweet time erasing you
Sad Beautiful Tragic from the Red album
It turns out freedom ain't nothing but missing you / Wishing I realized what I had when you were mine

You paint me a blue sky then go back and turn it to rain
Dear John from the Speak Now album.
I guess it's true that love was all you wanted / 'Cause you're giving it away like it's extra change / Hoping it will end up in his pocket / But he leaves you out like a penny in the rain
Tied Together with a Smile from the Taylor Swift album.
And you come away with a great little story / Of a mess of a dreamer with the nerve to adore you
Cold As You from the Taylor Swift album.
I bet it never, ever occurred to you that I can't say hello to you / And risk another goodbye
I Almost Do from the Red album.
Put your lips close to mine / As long as they don't touch / Out of focus, eye to eye / Till the gravity's too much
Treacherous from the Red album.
I wake in the night, I pace like a ghost / The room is on fire, invisible smoke / And all of my heroes die all alone / Help me hold onto you
The Archer from the Lover album.
Time turns flames to embers / You'll have new Septembers / Every one of us has messed up too / Lives change like the weather
Innocent from Speak Now.
The way you move is like a full on rainstorm /And I'm a house of cards
Sparks Fly from Speak Now.
You took a Polaroid of us / Then discovered / The rest of the world was in black and white / and we were in screaming color
Out Of The Woods from 1989.
Been losing grip, on sinking ships / You showed up just in time
This Love from 1989.
You're still all over me / Like a wine-stained dress I can't wear anymore
Clean from 1989.
All my flowers grew back as thorns / Windows boarded up after the storm / He built a fire just to keep me warm
Call It What You Want from the reputation album.
