what if i made a rep thread
ready for it is about bearding
it is also about taylor’s reputation and the long-lasting effect of being associated with her romantically
there is also the classic he/you switch here implying that the song is about two different people
end game is about wanting to be married to and the top priority of the person she loves
it also starts out sounding like a big of a call out to the person she loves
she also doesn’t want to ruin this relationship, she just wants to keep it simple while also making sure the person she loves knows that she doesn’t want to play games
idsb is taylor swift bragging about being a genius and of course she’s right
jokes aside, it’s also about how the media sees, uses and portrays her and how she manipulates the media right back
it’s also about fucking over a man and what’s better than that
don’t blame me is about how she’s willing to risk it all for the person she loves. she’s addicted to them. she also doesn’t care what they call her as long as long as they’re together.
she also talks about how before this relationship she was a bit of a player and kind of mean, but with this person she is much softer
she again mentions she wants to be with this person forever bc of how they make her feel. she loves it
she’s also saying love makes you do things you usually wouldn’t and that she’ll do anything for the feeling she gets with this person
delicate is about that stage in the relationship where you’re dating and not really talking to anyone else, but you don’t want to ruin it by revealing your feelings
she also battles with her thoughts on the relationship bc she doesn’t want to ruin it by saying anything too soon, but she knows the person must like her a lot too bc her image and reputation has been dragged through the mud
she’s also using alcohol to hype herself up to say the words in the chorus
she’s also not completely convinced this person likes her back as much as she likes them
the bridge also suggests that maybe the person is in a relationship/off limits to her but she still wants to confess anyway
lwymmd revenge anthem
it also has a bit of the flair from blank space, where she adopts the media’s portrayal of her and plays with that character as well
so it goes is about a physical relationship where the two people have issues in the outside world but do just fine when they’re alone
taylor is also giving the person an ultimatum, she wants to stay with them but not if they won’t put in the effort
gorgeous is about having a crush on someone you can’t have
they’re so attractive you can’t even talk to them bc they make you so nervous
it’s possible that it is also about a friend she flirts with playfully but she knows she can’t go for them due to her own career and current relationship
getaway car is about using someone to get out of a relationship and then leaving them too
the getaway car here is a person/relationship not a setting
she feels bad but also like the person should have read the signs based on where they met and how she acted in the relationship
komh is about being convinced she’s going to be alone forever and giving up on dating but then the perfect person just happens to show up
she wants to keep it locked down because it is perfect and unlike any relationship she has ever been in
she wants this person to be her everything. she feels like she’s been waiting for them her whole life. she wants to get married to them so bad!!!!!
dwoht is about how she’s in love with this person, but her anxiety makes her feel like the relationship isn’t going to last. but she really likes this person so she wants to try to make it work
having your hands tied simply means you’re prevented from doing something due to some other order preventing you. she wants to act on this relationship but can’t due to her and the other person’s careers
dress is about being in love with someone who only views you as a friend or rather about someone you are only supposed to be friends with
buying a dress just so they can take it off? carving a name into a bed post because you don’t want them like a best friend? that’s so forward miss swift
she feels this person knows her better than anyone else
she also acknowledges that maybe she was being pursued by this “friend” and that she came to a realization that allowed them to get together
she’s also been changed forever by the relationship she has with this person. it is very sweet
tiwchnt is about being betrayed by someone you considered a friend and as a result, cutting them off. basically a diss track lol
it is also super fun and what’s better than that
call it what you want is a love letter to her relationship with this person. she also points out her flaws and confesses that this relationship is the best thing she’s ever done
once again, if you didn’t pick it up in another song from this thread, she wants to be with this person forever
she also establishes that she was fine single and this person doesn’t change who she is as a person.
new years day is about having someone who will be with you even after all the glamour is over and done with
someone who is there with you during the dark times, someone who has changed her forever. she anticipates being with this person forever
yes, she wants the shiny beautiful glamorous things in the relationship, but she also acknowledges that there are also “messes” to clean and deal with
overall, reputation may be considered her “darkest” album but i would also consider it to be one of her softest in parts
also I just love reputation a lot so if you got this far thanks for reading
