I’ve told you my stories for years now. Some have been about coming of age. Some have been about coming undone. This is a story about coming into your own, and as a result…coming alive.

[about writing Blank Space] I was kind of looking at this whole fictionalized version of my life the media has portrayed, because I don’t talk about my personal life, so they’ve kind of had to make one up for me. And I guess in the last couple of years the story has been that I’m like a serial dater, and I like have all these boyfriends, and we’re traveling the world, and everything’s great until I get overemotional and crazy and obsessive, and they leave, and I’m devastated and I write songs to get emotional revenge cause I’m psychotic. And that character, if you think about it, if that’s actually how I was, it’s such a complex, interesting character to write from the perspective of. So I was kinda like, I could write a song from her perspective, and see how it would turn out. All of a sudden I started having so much fun writing these like zingers and one-liners, that it ended up being one of the funniest songs on the record, and one of the songs that people actually gravitate towards.
FAVOURITE PEOPLE » Taylor Swift
“Your feelings so are important to write down, to capture, and to remember because today you’re heartbroken, but tomorrow you’ll be in love again.”
“I don’t know if I’ll have kids…It’s impossible not to picture certain scenarios and how you would try to convince them that they have a normal life when, inevitably, there will be strange men pointing giant cameras at them from the time they are babies.”
