16 of Taylor Swift's Best Lyrics
https://www.instagram.com/p/BopoXpYnCes/

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"

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

I don't think I say it enough...

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
