[@imagine1e4dragonflies]

This song doesn't need a MV. It's already playing in everyone's head when they hear it.

[@brookemckinley5709]

Right?! And how does she do that with just about every song she makes?! That’s a gift every artist wants to have.

[@Farah-pw2mg]

So true!!!

[@HeFirst_LovedUs]

Not me seeing this while making a MV for it

[@whonskatt]

😍😍😍

[@upscaleavenue]

It's all the powerful imagery that she uses in the song - time passing, sitting and staring, dust collecting on pinned up hair, the haunted corner, glass shattering on cloth, him sitting in front of her, mascara running, the "wife, kids, and Christmas" image. She didn't put those in there for fun. They're meant to help you envision the situation, and to help you relate to it better.

[@jonlou28]

I don’t know how she does it but, I thought that phrase was powerful enough, then she writes “right where you left me” and adds more powerful lines. It’s like she’s Writing about the same thing, and yet not saying the same thing by describing a whole different story. Her mind is a magic box.

I think this is a song every one relates to despite not being in a relationship everyone can relate to the feeling of being stuck in time and wishing nothing changed cause many ppl especially teenagers are scared of change. This song is the most relatable song

[@antoineichas8640]

As said above, the feeling of being stuck can be relatable for everyone. And I think that it’s especially the case for people who suffer from depression because in a way, they, we, are stuck, frozen at the age where it started and we never got the chance to grow emotionally, so I agree with the comment, it truly is terrifying

"And it's been so long but if you ever think you got it wrong I'm right where you left me." Is honestly such a gut punch of a line. 3.5 minuets of her explaining how much he hurt her...how it literally broke her to have him leave her, all for her to say that if he changed his mind she would still want him. And let's not ignore that the chorus starts with the word 'help'. She's literally begging him to help her because she can't do it herself!

The best song Taylor has ever written, just so spot on about all stages of adult heartbreak, feeling like everyone is moving on but you, that everyone around you minimizes your pain - 'breakups happen everyday, you don't have to lose it' -, replaying the same scenarios in your head over and over again, asking what have you done, because it has to be you, he moved on, you're the one still stuck. Absolute perfection.

[@taracat7723]

OMG it's unbelievable..who writes like this?!?

[@elenam.4232]

This song somehow gets sadder the more times you listen to it. Maybe because every time you come back to the song she's still at that restaurant, still in that corner and cross-legged in the dim light and the dust collected on her pinned-up hair gets a little bit more every time.

This song made me realize that I've been living as a ghost all this time. Haunting places, people, and moments that are long gone. They've moved on while I'm still here, stuck in the places they left me remembering them in songs... Edit: It's comforting to know that I'm not the only one experiencing this, made me feel less alone. To all those going through the same thing, it does get better. It takes time and pain but it get's better. Take solace in this song and take care of yourself.

[@FoenyxFeather]

100% relate. I moved a whole city away to ditch a painful past and yet my mind still frequently drifts back to haunt those streets/that school/those places/those friends that threw me away - as if I'm some sort of ghost. I have to make an effort to catch myself doing it and bring my mind back to the present where the past and future can actually be transformed.

I sobbed when I first heard this song… Because I was the person she is singing about. It has taken me 1/2 decade to get over a break up. It felt like forever … and thinking about it now, it really didn’t need to consume my life back then, but it really did. Especially when the person left you for someone else, which means they found someone better than you. It absolutely shatters your self esteem, and you have to work so hard to get it back. The lyric “help” - it says so much for someone living through such thing.

[@meljohnalindao9138]

Being outgrown is, I think, one of the underrated types of heartbreak. Imagine a closest friend of yours whom you think you wouldn’t lose, and end up having no contacts at all. Or a partner or ex-partner who’s out there moving on with his life, and you’re stuck right where they left you. It’s difficult to keep everything the same way you wanted when the world revolves to anybody else’s time and you have no choice or control but to see them moving forward without you. Outgrowing somebody is the same as heartbreak. You can’t force them to be around, or ask how things weren’t the same way as before. You’ll move on, too. But, what’s more painful is when you have to build another form of relationship just for it to be outgrown again.

I still can't believe how gut-wrenching this song is. If you've ever lost someone extremely close to you, you know exactly what she's talking about that feeling of never being able to move on even the idea of moving on is unrealistic because you're literally frozen in time. The world keeps going about it's day but you're right where you were when your heart shattered into a million pieces, the pieces shattered so abundantly that no amount of time could possibly heal or put them back together ever. In my case, it's been a little over a year since my beloved mother passed away but it genuinely doesn't feel like it's been even a day since that happened. Which is ironic because I remember just freezing when I got the news I didn't even tear up until of course a couple hours later when it all hit and I broke down crying but those couple hours they seemed like an entire lifetime your whole life flashing before your eyes knowing you're never going to hear that voice or see that smile. The person that raised you, that shaped you into who you are, that endless amount of love and appreciation it's all gone in one quick second just like that, your world shifts and it's never going to be the same again. I think this song is the closest thing that has encapsulated that feeling for me. So thank you Taylor for this beautiful piece of art.

[@aarushikishore1417]

When someone leaves you and is going to come back someday, it feels like ages had passed after the someone comes back. It feels that way because you wait for the someone to come back. That waiting seems impatient and long, because even though your life goes on, an aspect in your life goes missing. You long for that feeling. You force your life to move on even though the feeling is missing because you know that it is going to come back. So, that wait seems very long. But when you lose someone forever, it is different. You know that the someone is not going to come back. Because that aspect disappears from your life forever, you often do not push your life to go on. You want to feel like you are living in the past. That must be the reason why life freezes. You just can't believe it and don't want to feel or know what it feels like without having that someone in your life. You want it to remain the same, but it is impossible to do so. So, your time freezes just to live in the past forever.
