13 ‘Red (Taylor’s Version)’ Lyrics That Make Epic AIM Away Messages

There’s never been anything quite like the act of crafting the perfect status message after returning home from school each afternoon, homework forgotten to the side as you plotted out something to make your crush jealous, or perhaps to entice your friends to beg you to spill beans that weren’t even in your possession (at least not yet). And who better to author those playful teases or mournful laments than Ms. Taylor Alison Swift? Taylor Swift’s “Begin Again” lyrics would have had my bestie flocking to my inbox asking what had happened, and how unbelievably perfect would any other AIM away message have been if Taylor Swift had written it? So in honor of Taylor finally owning the ultimate heartbreak album, here are 13 lyrics from Red (Taylor’s Version) that, after carefully colorizing and arranging them instead of doing geometry, would have made the most epic AIM away messages. And yes, “All Too Well (10 Minute Version)” obviously made the cut (more than once!).
