►Lyrics:
Written by Taylor Swift and Jack Antonoff

I have this thing where I get older but just never wiser
Midnights become my afternoons
When my depression works the graveyard shift
All of the people I’ve ghosted stand there in the room
I should not be left to my own devices, they come with prices and vices, I end up in crisis
Tale as old as time
I wake up screaming from dreaming one day I’ll watch as you’re leaving ‘cause you got tired of my scheming - for the last time

It’s me
Hi
I’m the problem, it’s me
At teatime
Everybody agrees
I’ll stare directly at the sun but never in the mirror
It must be exhausting always rooting for the anti-hero

Sometimes I feel like everybody is a sexy baby
And I’m a monster on the hill
Too big to hang out
Slowly lurching toward your favorite city
Pierced through the heart but never killed
Did you hear my covert narcissism I disguise as altruism like some kind of congressman
Tale as old as time
I wake up screaming from dreaming
one day I’ll watch as you’re leaving and life will lose all its meaning - for the last time

It’s me
Hi
I’m the problem, it’s me
At teatime
Everybody agrees
I’ll stare directly at the sun but never in the mirror
It must be exhausting always rooting for the anti-hero

I have this dream my daughter-in-law kills me for the money
She thinks I left them in the will
The family gathers ‘round and reads it
And then someone screams out
“She’s laughing up at us from hell!”

It’s me
Hi
I’m the problem, it’s me

It’s me
Hi
I’m the problem, it’s me

It’s me
Hi

Everybody agrees
Everybody agrees

It’s me
Hi
I’m the problem, it’s me
At teatime
Everybody agrees
I’ll stare directly at the sun but never in the mirror
It must be exhausting always rooting for the anti-hero

    I love the message in the end - how you can “befriend” and eventually accept even your darkest sides, allow yourself to be that imperfect anti-hero or at least learn how to live with it. Love how it’s about mental health. Thanks Taylor 🎉
  • @megwelborn
    Please don’t change this video just because some people do not understand. Some people never will. That scene resonates with me
  • @NgaBui-vz9wr
    The Midnights era is never ending for me. I know this is not my only obsession every time I hear ''It's me, Hi, I'm the problem, It's me''🥺.
  • I weight 260lbs and I'm offended by people that called this "fatphobic" and made you delete the scene. Your experiences are your own and It was OK to have that scene. Thank you Taylor for everything you give us. Great song!
  • @polyester8844
    It's so crystal clear how this song's so personal and heartfelt that it could resonate with anyone who's struggling with occasional or frequent moments of self-loathe
  • @IndyRica
    She feels awkwardly “LARGER THAN LIFE” and internally deals with the pressure of fame and money - and contemplates what will even happen to all of her accomplishments after she’s gone. I love Taylor for being so transparent and humble. A great Artist. ❤
  • The hypocrisy of the media is astounding. I thought the scale scene was really vulnerable and I'm really upset that part of it was taken out. We love you Taylor and we appreciate you being open with us about your insecurities
  • "People haven't always been there for me but music always has"- Taylor Swift.
  • @jicjac
    This song hits different then all her other ones. It feels deeply personal rather than another mainstream hit
  • @floxxy1
    Goodbye Midnights Era 💙🕛🌃🌌
  • @krisiskiss
    this is one of the most genuine songs I've ever heard. she definitely speaks from her heart writing and singing this song. Taylor is a consummate songwriter.
  • @VerySimplyEl
    This song has so many layers, like how it's your flaws that hurt you but they're all you have when others leave you. The depth and even the fears of having children, because of her afluence is just wow....I love this song so much 😭
  • @ludoadena
    I'm not ready to say goodbye to Midnights.. not yet 🥹😭💙💙💙
  • @dolltannies
    it's insane how everyone else can have an opinion on Taylor's body and how she was labelled but taylor herself should not and CANNOT...I just hope she's happy and always knows there's people who love and support her and wouldn't judge her for when she feels vulnerable or feels comfortable enough to let people know what she's gone through
  • @babychammy400
    Honestly I'm really glad she finally addressed her insecurities through this her album,because damn people will always talk.
  • @JeffMoore1984
    As a indie singer-songwriter this is my favorite Taylor Swift song
