If you read the lyrics to Taylor Swift’s “Fifteen” without knowing anything about the song, you might easily assume they were written by an adult woman looking back wistfully on her adolescence.
Told in a series of autobiographical vignettes, “Fifteen” follows Swift and her best friend, Abigail, through their freshman year of high school, as the two become friends and date boys who end up treating them poorly. (Teenage boys, it turns out, aren’t always the nicest.) They learn lessons about broken hearts and forever friendships. And as she sings, Swift looks back on that period in her life with a kind of bittersweet fondness. She didn’t know then what she knows now, and that made all the difference.
