It means she was innocent and gentle until fame forced her to toughen up her skin because she was ripped to shreds you illiterate imbeciles
@emilykthen I feel like it’s less about it being complicated but more about it not being that good
@emilykthen an ariana blue check stan account making a hate thread about taylor. that is literally bait lmao
@emilykthen It’s actually quite grim to watch people struggle this much with fairly uncomplicated metaphors that are upgraded versions of what’s always been her whole deal. Like, this is just Bad Blood but from the perspective of having a frontal lobe.
@emilykthen just because there's more words doesn't mean it's a better lyric...
@emilykthen You didn’t have to kill my grandma @attentionforari like that 😭
@emilykthen the way these lyrics make perfect sense and there’s much tougher lyrics in the album too, they’re just dumb😭
@emilykthen I’m not seeing people point out that in the circus lions would get their teeth removed, broken or filed down as part of the lion taming process historically. It’s a way to break them.
