The Grammy winner said she “always imagined” the former took place in an “American town where the American Dream you thought would happen to you didn’t.” She explained, “You ended up not with the person you loved and now you have to just live with that every day, wondering what would’ve been, maybe seeing them out. “And that’s a pretty tragic concept, really,” Swift continued. “So I was just writing from that perspective.” 9 The song is about a “toxic, broken relationship.” Taylor Swift/YouTube  9 She also addressed “My Boy Only Breaks His Favorite Toys.” Getty Images for The Recording Academy

They’ll come back to that. They’ll get back to that,’” she noted.  9 The songwriter did not clarify which of her exes, if any, the songs are about. Getty Images  9 Swift clearly roasts her and Joe Alwyn’s six-year romance elsewhere on the album. GC Images Swift called the track a “song about denial” in which one “can live in this world where there’s still hope for a toxic, broken relationship.”

The songwriter also spoke to her motivations behind writing “Florida!!!,” “Clara Bow” and “Who’s Afraid of Little Old Me?” She did not, however, address the songs eagle-eyed fans believe to be about her exes Joe Alwyn, Matty Healy and John Mayer.  9 She also sings about her fling with Matty Healy. Claude Yao Sahi @hijoshotit / Shutterstock  9 Swift is currently dating NFL star Travis Kelce. Getty Images Swift also refrained from commenting on “thanK you aIMee,” a viral diss track seemingly shading Kim Kardashian amid their years-long feud.
