Play me something that makes me feel; This soul inside me is made of steel. Brain is breathing, but heart’s not beating And, babe, I need you to make things real. Walk inside me without silence, Kill the past and change the tense. Empty gnawing and the ache is soaring; Take me places that make more sense. Melina Marchetta
About This Quote

When it comes to music, there is no one working harder than Taylor Swift. From her incredible voice to the meticulous preparation that goes into making her albums, she is all about creating music that not only makes you feel, but also inspires people to feel. "This soul inside me is made of steel" speaks to the strength of Taylor's music. No matter what emotion she channels, she can turn it into something beautiful and moving through her powerful voice.

By the end of the song she says "brain is breathing, but heart's not beating" and right there, at the end of the song, Taylor Swift has us convinced that she is still alive and well. She continues on to say that she needs you to make things "real." There are no false promises or empty promises in Taylor's music; everything comes with a sense of urgency and purpose. It's almost as if she's telling us that if we take advantage of every second she gives us, we can make our lives better by creating something meaningful out of life.
