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 (3)________ again
Got me feeling like I'm nothing
You, (4)________ your voice (5)________ nails on a chalkboard
Calling me out when I'm wounded
You, picking on the weaker man

Well you can take me (6)________ with just one single blow
But you don't know
What you don't know
Someday I'll be (7)____________ in a big ol' city
And all you're ever (8)__________ to be is mean
Someday I'll be big enough so you can't hit me
And all you're (9)________ going to be is mean
Why you gotta be so mean?

You, with (10)________ (11)__________________ 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 block you out 'cause I'll (12)__________ impress you
I just (13)__________ feel okay again

I bet you got pushed around
Somebody (14)________ you cold
But the (15)__________ (16)________ (17)__________ now
Cause you can't lead me (18)________ that 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 (19)__________ to be is mean
Why you gotta be so mean?

And I can see you years from now in a bar
Talking (20)________ a (21)________________ game
With that same big loud (22)______________ but
Nobody's listening
Washed up and ranting about the (23)________ 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 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 (24)____________ 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 (25)____________ in a big ol' city
(Why you gotta be so mean?)
And all you're ever going to be is mean
Why you (26)__________ be so mean?
Someday I'll be big enough so you can't hit me
(Why you (27)__________ be so mean?)
And all you're (28)________ going to be is mean
Why you gotta be so mean?
