“Loml”: In this moving track, Taylor first sings about being called the love of someone’s life “about a million times.” However, the dynamic soon changed.
“If you know it in one glimpse, it’s legendary,” she notes. “What we thought was for all time was momentary.”
She ends the song by letting the person know, “You’re the loss of my life.”
While it could be about her long relationship with Joe, lyrics about “rekindled flames” and “we were just kids, babe” hint it’s about her spark with Matty after all these years: “I’ve felt a glow like this never before and never since.”
“I Can Do It With a Broken Heart”: The song appears to be about Taylor slaying her Eras Tour despite the heartbreak, noting that she’s “hittin’ my marks” on stage in front of a chanting crowd. She hides her emotions by putting on a strong face: “Lights, camera, bitch smile.”
Though this song is upbeat, it’s filled with lyrics of unrequited love.
“I’m so obsessed with him, but he avoids me like the plague / I cry a lot, but I am so productive, it’s an art,” she sings. “You know you’re good when you can even do it with a broken heart.”
“The Smallest Man Who Ever Lived”: Taylor has a few questions for “the smallest man who ever lived,” who seemingly left their relationship out of nowhere.
“You kicked out the stage lights, but you’re still performing,” she sings. “And in plain sight you hid / But you are what you did.”
