#the obvious one being ‘casually cruel’ in both all too well and Mr perfectly fine

#so I don’t watch a ton of reaction videos and stuff like that
#or even deep dives in general
#because one thing I’ve noticed is that people will take a phrase or reference
#and claim it HAS to be about this event or person
#because it’s repeated or whatever
#like ‘oh she said this which is THIS PERSON coded’
#or ‘she said this same phrase in this other song they must BOTH be about THAT PERSON’
#etc. and so on
#and look I think Taylor does that to some degree when it makes sense
#but I also think a lot of the time the likelier option is that she just really likes a turn of phrase and reuses it
#whether its consciously or not
#the obvious one being ‘casually cruel’ in both all too well and Mr perfectly fine
#and the songs clearly have different inspirations
#I love deciphering and interpreting lyrics
#and yes the nosy part of me wants the tea I’m human
#but sometimes the constant ‘this HAS to be about Jake/joe/harry/calvin/etc’ pinpointing
#gets in the way of enjoying the actual lyricism for me
#maybe the girl is just really bad at driving (I kid)
#and like I said I am definitely ready to decode the tea
#but idk sometimes it makes me uncomfortable to reduce the songs to the muse ykwim?
#this is just a me thing though I know
#tag novel
#like as someone who has only been in the only fandom for a year-18 months
#and before that just enjoyed the music on my own and fell in love with the lyricism and melodies
#I just don’t particularly care most of the time about who the subject is because that isn’t how I came to learn about the music
#it was for how Taylor wrote about the feelings and the moments
#to be clear I’m talking about like the YouTube and Reddit crowds
#you people on my dash with your thoughtful analyses are wonderful and thoughtful and I am so grateful to be here!
