Mean by Taylor Swift

You, with (1)________ words like knives
And swords and weapons (2)________ you use (3)______________ me
You, have knocked me off my (4)________ again
Got me feeling (5)________ I'm nothing
You, (6)________ your voice like nails on a chalkboard
Calling me out (7)________ I'm wounded
You, picking on the weaker man

Well you can take me down with just one (8)____________ 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 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 gotta be so mean?

You, with (9)________ (10)__________________ sides
And your wildfire (11)________ and (12)________ humiliation
You, have pointed out my flaws again
As if I don't (13)______________ see them
I (14)________ (15)________ my head down
Trying to block you out 'cause I'll never impress you
I just (16)__________ feel okay again

I bet you got pushed around
Somebody made you cold
But the cycle ends right now
Cause you can't lead me down (17)________ 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 (18)__________ to be is mean

Someday I'll be big enough so you can't hit me
And all you're (19)________ going to be is mean
Why you gotta be so mean?

And I can see you (20)__________ from now in a bar
Talking (21)________ a football game
With that same big loud opinion but
Nobody's listening
Washed up and ranting about the same old bitter things
Drunk and grumbling on (22)__________ 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 someday I'll be living in a big ol' city
And all you're ever (23)__________ to be is mean, yeah
Someday I'll be big enough so you can't hit me
And all you're (24)________ going to be is mean
Why you (25)__________ be so mean?
Someday I'll be (26)____________ in a big ol' city
(Why you (27)__________ be so mean?)
And all you're (28)________ (29)__________ to be is mean
Why you gotta be so mean?
Someday I'll be big enough so you can't hit me
(Why you gotta be so mean?)
And all you're ever going to be is mean
Why you gotta be so mean?
