Mean by Taylor Swift

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

Well you can (5)________ me (6)________ with (7)________ 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 ever going to be is mean
Someday I'll be big (8)____________ so you can't hit me
And all you're ever (9)__________ to be is mean
Why you gotta be so mean?

You, (10)________ (11)________ switching sides
And your wildfire (12)________ 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 block you out 'cause I'll never impress you
I just wanna (13)________ (14)________ again

I bet you got pushed around
Somebody made you cold
But the (15)__________ (16)________ right now
Cause you can't (17)________ me down that road
And you don't know
What you don't know
Someday I'll be (18)____________ 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 (19)__________ to be is mean
Why you (20)__________ be so mean?

And I can see you years from now in a bar
Talking over a (21)________________ 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 about how I can't sing
But all you are is mean

All you are is mean
And a liar
And pathetic
And (22)__________ 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 going to be is mean, yeah
Someday I'll be big (23)____________ so you can't hit me
And all you're ever going 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 gotta be so mean?
Someday I'll be big (24)____________ so you can't hit me
(Why you (25)__________ be so mean?)
And all you're (26)________ going to be is mean
Why you gotta be so mean?
