Taylor Swift recently revamped her Eras Tour setlist to include hits from her newly-released album The Tortured Poets Department, referring to this new section of the concert as "Female Rage: The Musical."
While the entire album could easily fit into this category of female rage, let's take a closer look at nine lyrics that hit especially close to home:
1. "I've heard great things Peter / But life was always easier on you / Than it was on me"
2. "And I'll forget you, but I'll never forgive / The smallest man who ever lived"
— "The Smallest Man Who Ever Lived"
