This album is nothing like what Taylor has done before. In terms of the vulnerability of this album. The lyrics are so honest, vulnerable and heartbreaking. This is really for the fans who understand how her storytelling is how she speaks to us all and how everything she writes about helps her to overcome. The sound isn't similar to anything she's made but does have hints to past songs as in to say she's gotten closure maybe? This album seems very cathartic for her and the fans and it really is the most personal lyrics she's written in a long time. Absolutely in love with it and will now need months to process.
