A Place in This World
Taylor Swift (Deluxe) Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
'Cause I'm still trying to figure it out
Don't know what's down this road
I'm just walking
Trying to see through the rain coming down
Even though I'm not the only one, who feels
The way I do
And that's all I know,
I'll be strong, I'll be wrong
Oh, but life goes on
Oh, I'm just a girl
Trying to find a place in this world
Got the radio on, my old blue jeans
And I'm wearing my heart on my sleeve
Feeling lucky today, got the sunshine
Could you tell me what more do I need?
And tomorrow's just a mystery, oh yeah
But that's okay
I'm alone, on my own
And that's all I know,
I'll be strong, I'll be wrong
Oh, but life goes on
Oh, I'm just a girl
Trying to find a place in this world
Maybe I'm just a girl on a mission
But I'm ready to fly
I'm alone, on my own
And that's all I know
Oh, I'll be strong, I'll be wrong
Oh, but life goes on
Oh, I'm alone, on my own
And that's all I know
Oh, I'm just a girl
Trying to find a place in this world
Oh, I'm just a girl
Oh, I'm just a girl, oh, oh
Oh, I'm just a girl
In "A Place in This World," Taylor Swift sings about feeling lost and unsure of her place in the world. She opens up the song by admitting that she doesn't know what she wants and she's still trying to figure it out. She's walking down a road, not knowing what lies ahead, but determined to see through the rain. Swift emphasizes that she's not alone in feeling lost, but she's still alone as she tries to find her place. Through the lyrics, she processes the challenges of meaning-making and successfully invokes a sense of tension between independence and longing for community.
As the song progresses, Swift reflects on the simple joys in life, like a sunny day and favorite music. The future is uncertain, but she's ready to fly and fulfill her mission, whatever that may be. She acknowledges that life will bring its ups and downs, but she's determined to keep going and find her place in the world. The concluding lines repeat the chorus with a sense of resolve, emphasizing that despite the struggles and uncertainties, she's just a girl on a mission trying to find her place in the world.
