This song can have a very political meaning to it. Many people's hatred towards the government due to the neglection they feel. Then putting all their anger and frustration out on everyone. This can refer back to the shooting at the Elementary school and the movie theatre. Taylor's basically saying: "Yeah, you're alone. You're afraid. You feel like people don't understand you, but that doesn't give you the right to take it out on other (innocent) people." This song is badass and it's definitely my favourite on the album.
