My Favorite Lyrics From Taylor Swift's New Album: Reputation
Wikipedia

I have loved Taylor Swift for as long as I can remember. From her curly haired days of singing about teardrops on her guitar and love stories like Romeo and Juliet to singing about shaking off what people are saying about you and finally the fierce, independent woman who is singing about her reputation; I have loved it all. While I could easily make an article about all the reasons why I think the media is wrong and why Taylor Swift is a great role model, I am not looking for any controversies. Instead, I am going to prepare for her Reputation tour by listing my favorite lyrics from each song on the album.

Reputation

1. ...Ready For It?

“And he can be my jailor, Burton to this Taylor”


2. End Game

“I wanna be your A-team”

“You've been calling my bluff on all my usual tricks / So here's the truth from my red lips”


3. I Did Something Bad

“Crimson red paint on my lips / If a man talks sh*t, then I owe him nothing”


4. Don’t Blame Me

“Don't blame me, love made me crazy / If it doesn't, you ain't doin' it right”

“Halo, hiding my obsession / I once was poison ivy, but now I'm your daisy”


5. Delicate

Bridge: “Sometimes I wonder when you sleep / Are you ever dreaming of me?

Sometimes when I look into your eyes / I pretend you're mine, all the damn time"


6. Look What You Made Me Do

“I've got a list of names and yours is in red, underlined"


7. So It Goes…

“So it goes… / I'm yours to keep / And I'm yours to lose”


8. Gorgeous

“And you are so gorgeous it makes me so mad / You make me so happy it turns back to sad, yeah / There's nothing I hate more than what I can't have / Guess I'll just stumble on home to my cats”


9. Getaway Car

“You were drivin' the getaway car /We were flyin’, but we never get far / Don't pretend it's such a mystery / Think about the place where you first met me"


10. King of My Heart

“Salute to me, I'm your American Queen / And you move to me like I'm a Motown beat”

“Late in the night, the city's asleep / Your love is a secret I'm hoping, dreaming, dying to keep”


11. Dancing With Our Hands Tied

“I'd kiss you as the lights went out / Swaying as the room burned down / I'd hold you as the water rushes in / If I could dance with you again”


12. Dress

“Say my name and everything just stops / I don't want you like a best friend”


13. This Is Why We Can’t Have Nice Things

“Everyone swimming in a champagne sea / And there are no rules when you show up here / Bass beat rattling the chandelier / Feeling so Gatsby for that whole year”


14. Call It What You Want

“My baby's fit like a daydream / Walking with his head down / I'm the one he's walking to”


15. New Year’s Day

“Hold on to the memories, they will hold on to you”

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.

December... it's full of finals, due dates, Mariah Carey, and the holidays. It's the worst time of the year, but the best because after finals, you get to not think about classes for a month and catch up on all the sleep you lost throughout the semester. But what's worse than finals week is the last week of classes, when all the due dates you've put off can no longer be put off anymore.
