The Meaning Behind Fifteen

Every one of Taylor's songs has a message and a meaning. In her song "fifteen" the message is very apparent. The song "fifteen" written by Swift has aspects some fifteen year old's deal with. From starting high school, making best friends and falling in love. It is written as if Taylor is reminiscing back on what she was like as a fifteen year old. For example, "But in your life you'll do things greater than dating the boy on the football team. I didn't know it at fifteen" (Swift). The song represents Swift telling herself at fifteen that life is so much more than first love and small towns. But at the age of fifteen it is hard to realize how insignificant they are. This song people can relate to, because everyone at one point will be in that time of transition. The song is trying to express to Swift’s younger fans to relax and sit back because in reality they are just "Fifteen".
