16 of Taylor Swift's Best Lyrics

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"

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.
