I Forgot That You Existed

About I Forgot That You Existed

"I Forgot That You Existed" is about moving on from someone and realising that it is possible to do so. Swift sings about how it took a magical night, something she couldn't explain, to realise that she no longer needed to think about the wrongs done by this person and could instead forget that they existed. It is emphasised that this is not out of hatred, but indifference; the form of emotion they had moved on to. This allows her to finally feel peace and quiet and to see the good in forgetting them. .
