Fox News
Taylor Swift's new album is out, and fans have been hard at work decoding all the Easter eggs she has left behind in her lyrics. She supposedly attacked John Mayer and more.
Fans on social media are convinced the song "Would’ve, Could’ve, Should’ve" is about ex-boyfriend John Mayer. The two dated from 2009 to 2010. If the song is about him, it wouldn't be the first time she has reportedly written about their relationship. Many fans also believe her song "Dear John" from her 2010 album "Speak Now" is inspired by Mayer. Lori Bashian is an entertainment production assistant for Fox News Digital.
The lyrics fans have anchored their theory to: "At 19, and the God’s honest truth is that the pain was heaven/ And now that I’m grown, I’m scared of ghosts/ Memories feel like weapons/ And now that I know, I wish you left me wondering." She goes on to sing about the heartache she experienced when he broke up with her.
