Taylor Swift is known for a lot of things and one of those things is being a lyrical genius. She has written, or at least, co-written pretty much every single song on every single album she has put out. Some of her lyrics are so beautiful they just make you want to cry, while others just fire you up. She has a song for almost every mood and to match whatever life experiences you may be going through. I'll admit, this list was hard to put together, but here are 16 of Taylor Swift's best lyrics. (But let's be honest, every single lyric deserves to be on this list).

1. "Cause darling I'm a nightmare dressed like a day dream" 

This lyric, without a doubt, has been every girls' Instagram caption at some point. There's something just so badass about it, but also comical. It's an iconic lyric that I'm sure will go down in history.

2. "I bury hatchets but I keep maps of where I put 'em" 

CHILLS, but also savage. I want this lyric as a tattoo that I can flash whenever someone wrongs me.

3. "I never heard silence quite this loud" 

"The Story of Us" is an extremely underrated song. That is all.

4. "Friends don't try to trick you, get you on the phone and mind-twist you" 

There's a chance that this lyric is only here because I'm obsessed with the way she says it in the song.

5. "You call me up again just to break me like a promise, so casually cruel in the name of being honest"

To be fair, this entire list could be made up of lyrics from "All Too Well," but this one has always stuck out to me the most. It's just one of those lyrics that hits you right in the heart.

6. "If a man talks shit, then I own 'em nothing" 

If you don't scream this lyric, what are you doing with your life?

7. "I had the time of my life fighting dragons with you" 

LONG LIVE THE MAGIC WE MADE.

8. "My name is whatever you decide and I'm just gonna call you mine" 

9. "I'm doing better than I ever was" 

This lyric is just refreshing. I mean, how good does it feel to hear something like this and be able to relate to it? Or, maybe, if you're an empath like me, to hear someone say this after a hard time? It's rejuvenating.

10. "He's so tall and handsome as hell, he's so bad but he does it so well" 

"Wildest Dreams" makes you just want to fall in love with a bad boy like every fanfic ever written.

11. "Your love is a secret I'm hoping, dreaming, dying to keep" 

12. "But you held your pride like you should've held me" 

There are a few boys that I could easily scream this lyric at.

13. "The playful conversation starts, counter all your quick remarks, like passing notes in secrecy" 

14. "It turns out freedom ain't nothing but missing you" 

15. "He would try to take away my pain, and he just might make me smile, but the whole time I'm wishing he was you instead" 

Honestly, ripping out my heart would probably hurt less.

16. "All we are is skin and bone, trained to get along"

If I have learned one thing in my lifetime, it is that friends are a privilege. No one is required to give you their company and yet there is some sort of shared connection that keeps you together. And from that friendship, you may even find yourself lucky enough to have a few more friends, thus forming a group. Here are just a few signs that prove your current friend group is the ultimate friend group.

When it comes to television, there’s very few sets of on-screen siblings that a lot of us can relate to. Only those who have grown up with siblings knows what it feels like to fight, prank, and love a sibling. Ross and Monica Geller were definitely overbearing and overshared some things through the series of "Friends," but they captured perfectly what real siblings feel in real life. Some of their antics were funny, some were a little weird but all of them are completely relatable to brothers and sisters everywhere.

1. The Legacy.

Her sister was a member, her mom was a member, all of her aunts were members, and her grandma was a member. She has been waiting her whole life to wear these letters and cried hysterically on bid day. Although she can act entitled at times, you can bet she is one of the most enthusiastic sisters.

Every kid in college and/or high school dreams of summer the moment they walk through the door on the first day back in September. It becomes harder and harder to focus in classes and while doing assignments as the days get closer.
