Rain on me a million I'm not flawless, but I gotta diamond heart Does Taylor have a girlfriend? Diamond Heart - her engagement ring? She is not flawless, but she got his engagement ring? Spoiler Head full of Jameson Girl's playin' bad 'cause it doesn't pay to be good A cruel king made me tough Daddy's girl's never good enough She is talking about her Christian upbringing. It doesn't pay off to be good, so she is being bad instead. Also, daddy issues.

TropicOfCANCER 6,292 Posted October 31, 2016 Share Posted October 31, 2016 the diamond heart chorus analysis annoys me. I think you took the interpretation too literally. I interpret it as meaning she has a solid/indestructible heart, as in, she knows she's a good person with good intentions, but she's had to do some wild/questionable things to "survive" (Go-go dance for money, drink, party, flirt with the men she dances for to make that $), which is what the bridge of the song is about: "better get a good look, cuz soon i'm breaking out of here." I'm not doing this forever, just for now to make ends meet. One thing that seems up for interpretation is "c'mon baby do you have a girlfriend." To me, it's what gaga would say to the men in the bar, as a means of flirting. IMO, this song has literally nothing to do with Taylor. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Red 89,090 Posted October 31, 2016 Share Posted October 31, 2016 In Sinner's Prayer she's telling the person she loves that she makes some mistakes and has flaws but she's will be faithful to them. That's the meaning of the song, I don't know what she means by the specifics like "I came down the mountain dragging our love affair" If you see me posting like crazy, I'm either bored or procrastinating.

I thought about this too, but she said that her album is directly connected to her life, so. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
