Most of us can relate to Taylor Swift's music. She talks about lost love and heartbreak, but did you know that she even writes about the lives of stressful college students? Me neither! These 11 song lyrics show how her songs can relate to those moments when you just want to rip your hair out. Take a look:
1. Song: "22," Album: "Red"
"We're happy, free, confused and lonely at the same time. It's miserable and magical, oh yeah...."
What she really means:
"College, I'm free!"
"So this is what independence feels like."
"Wait, Mom, how do I do laundry?"
"What do you mean I can't wash whites and colors together?"
"Come on, I just ruined my favorite shirt!"
2. Song: "All Too Well," Album: "Red"
"And I know it's long gone, and that magic's not here no more, and I might be okay, but I'm not fine at all...."
What she really means:
"I swear I studied it all last night."
"Why can't I remember it?"
"I'm going to fail, this is not OK."
3. Song: "Blank Space," Album: "1989"
"So it's gonna be forever or it's gonna go down in flames. You can tell me when it's over if the high was worth the pain."
What she really means:
"This is it. This test is going to make or break my GPA."
"Yep, I failed."
"I'm going to get kicked out of the program."
"Why did I pick this major again?"
"Why didn't I choose an easier major?"

7. Song: "I Almost Do," Album: "Red"
"I bet this time of night you're still up. I bet you're tired from a long hard week."

"Can Friday come faster?"
8. Song: "I Know Places," Album: "1989"

"Why is no one giving me any information?"
9. Song: "I Wish You Would," Album: "1989"
"It's 2 a.m. in my room. Headlights pass the window pane, I think of you. We're a crooked love in a straight line down. Makes you wanna run and hide, then it makes you turn right back around."
