    "They see right through me" "Can you see right through me?" "I see right through me" These lines hit me the most. Totally relatable.

    LYRICS Combat, I'm ready for combat I say I don't want that, but what if I do? 'Cause cruelty wins in the movies I've got a hundred thrown-out speeches I almost said to you Easy they come, easy they go I jump from the train, I ride off alone I never grew up, it's getting so old Help me hold onto you I've been the archer I've been the prey Who could ever leave me, darling? But who could stay? Dark side, I search for your dark side But what if I'm alright, right, right, right here? And I cut off my nose just to spite my face Then I hate my reflection for years and years I wake in the night, I pace like a ghost The room is on fire, invisible smoke And all of my heroes die all alone Help me hold onto you I've been the archer I've been the prey Screaming, who could ever leave me, darling? But who could stay? (I see right through me, I see right through me) 'Cause they see right through me They see right through me They see right through Can you see right through me? They see right through They see right through me I see right through me I see right through me All the king's horses, all the king's men Couldn't put me together again 'Cause all of my enemies started out friends Help me hold onto you I've been the archer I've been the prey Who could ever leave me, darling? But who could stay? (I see right through me, I see right through me) Who could stay? Who could stay? Who could stay? You could stay You could stay You Combat, I'm ready for combat

    "All of my enemies started out friends" ...its fine... im fine 😭 LOVE YOU TAYLOR 💕
  • "All the king's horses, all the king's men, couldn't put me together again\ 'Cause all of my enemies started out friends" reveal that moment when you start to think and reminisce about your past and your anxiety explodes and your thoughts just build up to that paranoid climax. 'Help me hold on to you" is that scream for help that you simply shout out when it hits 100%, and then you start to come to your senses once again...
  • One of my favorite songs ever, to date. Honestly, Ms. Swift, will there ever come a day where your music doesn't impact my life?

    this song shows how truly beautiful her voice is it was also amazing in the eras tour
  • The lyrics remind me of the opposite of I know places. She was the foxes and now shes the hunter
