    this album is the one i know the least, as i’ve allowed. but i thought she had made a point of standing by lyrics that haven’t aged perfectly. or was that us making the point, not her?

    I wasn’t attached to the lyrics one way or another, but the new lyrics feel really poetic to me. It’s her acknowledging that he was going to leave regardless, and she just happened to be the person he left for. He was a moth, and she was the brightest light at the time he decided to leave.

    It’s always bothered me that she blames what’s her name and not Joe Jonas. It seemed like he left, performs better dissing Taylor and talking about how his new girl is better and then Taylor yells at new girl.

    But also this song slaps and is a bop.
