You've got a lot to lie about
All the angles you've covered up
We've got plenty to talk about because some of them you just
Can't block
Pretend you're the daughter of elvis and you're married to
The king of pop
Without worldwide belief, you step up to the mic and blow
It off
You're in over your head
This time you're in over your head
You're in over your head
This time you're in over your head
If it's any indication of what it's really like to be you
If it's any consolation, I guess I wouldn't want to be you
Can't say that I'm crazy about anything that you do
Without concrete belief, you step up to the edge and follow
Through
You're in over your head
This time you're in over your head
Just when you thought it was safe, you got raped
A fickle incision from the hand that fed you in the first
Place
Ten million opinions in your skin color face
Contrary to popular belief, this time you caught your foot
In the grave

Blank Space
Taylor Swift
This song is Swift's response to the negative reputation the media has given her. "I can make the bad guys good for a weekend" - the bad guys are the paparazzi to Swift, but are good to the "player" since association with Swift immediately gives publicity. Any publicity is good publicity and Swift knows this. "You can tell me when it's over" - the tabloids rumor relationships are over before the couple announces it officially. With this song Swift is portraying the way she is portrayed by the media. It is a sarcastic jab at how she views herself and how her "ex-lovers" only wanted to be with her to increase their fame. I applaud the brilliance in writing about how you always write about relationships. It is expected so Swift is giving the media what they want and profiting off the attention.

Alma Matters
Morrissey
The man has pseudo-friends who constantly criticize his actions. They moralize him, "teach" him and advise him to make a significant change in his life, because the way he is and what he does is not what they say it should be. They may find his life lame or immoral. They hold themselves up as role models. The man replies that he will make his own choices and decisions and he does not agree to unconditionally make himself under the influence of questionable quality advice. He justifies this by saying that there is always someone for whom he will be important, no matter what he does and no matter what he is. Although it is not said directly, I read it as meaning that he will always be important to himself in every way and he will always have his own support. "Everyone is different and maybe that's a good thing, but you exceeded that mark 1000 times" - I remember very well how sad the words I once heard (from my peers and it was in negative context) at school made me feel.
