I think “loml” stands for “Loss of my life”. Because technically Taylor never sings “love of my life”. She never says those words from her perspective in the song.

I don't know if I could list just one lyric from every song. I think I'm gonna just treat this like the favourite lyric thread and post my favourite TTPD lyrics sporadically. That being said...
"You said some things that I can't unabsorb, you turned me into an idea of sorts..." - Chloe or Sam or Sophia or Marcus

"I'm lonely but I'm good, I'm bitter but I swear I'm fine, I'll save all my romanticism for my inner life and I'll get lost on purpose, this place made me feel worthless" - I Hate It Here
