Leave it to Taylor Alison Swift to ensure no one ever knows peace. Fans are (read: I am) already sweating bullets in anticipation of the Red (Taylor's Version) release [1] on Friday, Nov. 12. Then, on Nov. 5, Swift announced an "All Too Well" short film [2], starring Sadie Sink and Dylan O'Brien, to be released on Nov. 12 with the new, 10-minute version of the iconic song. Meaning: what started as the Swiftie Super Bowl is now the Swiftie Olympics. Lest fans be ill-prepared for the big day, it's crucial to come armed with at least three boxes of tissues, the understanding that you will not be fine at all, and a boatload of "All Too Well" [3]-inspired Instagram captions [4] to break every one of your followers like a promise.
Swift's entire discography [5] is constantly lauded by her fans, but few songs have garnered the widespread, enduring adoration "All Too Well" [6] has since its 2012 release. The breakup ballad, rumoured to be about Swift's relationship with Jake Gyllenhaal [7], conveys the experience of reliving a relationship's most poignant details while grappling with its end. "'All Too Well' [8] was the hardest to write because it took me a long time to filter through everything I wanted to say," Swift said on Good Morning America in 2012. "It started out being a 10-minute song, which you can't put on an album. I had to filter it down to a story that could work in the form of a song."
Given the current five-minute "All Too Well" storyline [9] is enough to make anyone wrap themselves in a blanket like a little emo burrito, you'll want to brace yourself for the 10-minute version, which is sure to have all the lyrical genius of the original and then some. Whether you're gearing up a steady stream of moody IG content for Nov. 12 or you just want to show your love for Taylor Swift [10] any way you can, here are 31 "All Too Well" Instagram caption ideas.
