Mean by Taylor Swift

You, with your (1)__________ like knives
And swords and weapons that you use against me
You, have knocked me off my (2)________ again
Got me (3)______________ (4)________ I'm nothing
You, with (5)________ voice like nails on a chalkboard
Calling me out when I'm wounded
You, (6)______________ on the weaker man

Well you can take me down with just one single blow
But you don't know
What you don't know
Someday I'll be living in a big ol' city
And all you're (7)________ going to be is mean
Someday I'll be big enough so you can't hit me
And all you're ever going to be is mean
Why you gotta be so mean?

You, with your switching sides
And your wildfire lies and your humiliation
You, have pointed out my flaws again
As if I don't already see them
I walk with my head down
Trying to (8)__________ you out 'cause I'll never impress you
I just wanna feel okay again

I bet you got pushed around
Somebody (9)________ you cold
But the cycle (10)________ right now
Cause you can't (11)________ me down (12)________ road
And you don't know
What you don't know
Someday I'll be living in a big ol' city
And all you're ever going to be is mean

Someday I'll be big enough so you can't hit me
And all you're ever going to be is mean
Why you (13)__________ be so mean?

And I can see you years (14)________ now in a bar
Talking (15)________ a (16)________________ game
With that (17)________ big loud opinion but
Nobody's listening
Washed up and (18)______________ (19)__________ the same old bitter things
Drunk and grumbling on about how I can't sing
But all you are is mean

All you are is mean
And a liar
And pathetic
And alone in life
And mean, and mean, and mean, and mean
But (20)______________ I'll be living in a big ol' city
And all you're (21)________ going to be is mean, yeah
Someday I'll be big enough so you can't hit me
And all you're ever (22)__________ to be is mean
Why you gotta be so mean?
Someday I'll be living in a big ol' city
(Why you gotta be so mean?)
And all you're ever going to be is mean
Why you (23)__________ be so mean?
Someday I'll be big (24)____________ so you can't hit me
(Why you gotta be so mean?)
And all you're (25)________ (26)__________ to be is mean
Why you gotta be so mean?
