While Swift described "Me!" as "a song embracing your individuality and really celebrating and owning it," while talking to "Good Morning America" in 2019, the lyrics about being in a committed relationship with someone also seem to be about her ex-boyfriend. Not to mention, the music video includes quite a few Easter eggs about London, which is where the actor is from. The song's upbeat tune actually distracts from how sad some of the lyrics are; "I know that I'm a handful, baby, uh / I know I never think before I jump," Swift sings, adding later, "I never leave well enough alone / And trouble's gonna follow where I go." That's pretty similar to sentiments she shared on "Reputation" about her role in her relationship.
