Taylor really said closure is overrated and GIRL YOU’RE RIGHT.
Also love that she released this now because I’ve been struggling with seasonal depression and this has been one of the hardest years of my life and this really helps. I was extremely depressed at the beginning of the year and it made me seek out an abusive ex. I got back with him and he continued to emotionally abuse me and called me his exes name as he was telling me he loves me. He cheated on me and we ended things and in the middle of all of that i found out my dog needed life saving surgery that ended up costing over $10,000 which I’m still paying off. a few months later I went back to my ex again because again I was struggling with my mental health. During that time he cheated on me again and then dumped me on my birthday. Now fast forward to November and me and my mom get home from work one day and realize our other dog is walking funny so we rush him to the vet and he somehow got a slipped disc so his back legs were paralyzed. He’s recovering but still struggles. Also all 4 of my car window motors went out and i could only afford to fix 2 of them because it’s about $550 a piece to fix so now i have paper holding up my other windows and every time I drive they fall down. And those are just the major things that happened there have been so many little things that have added up to this year being awful for me. So anyway having Taylor release these powerful songs really truly help me get through the tough days. I love her so much. It’s so crazy that looking back on my life since I was 11 and first heard teardrops on my guitar, her songs have always been so impactful for me. They have gotten me through so much. I’ve literally grown up with her. Thank you Taylor!
Anyway here’s some lyrics that sum up my 2020.
Long story short, I survived.
I’m fine with my spite, and my tears, and my beers, and my candles.
