Clean fills me with pride in myself. I interpret it differently than as it was written, a common thing among fans that I believe Taylor does approve of. Since I came out as transgender and gay 2 years ago, I've viewed through the lens of coming out. I like this song to celebrate it as the bravest thing I've ever done in my life. It was a very shaky, difficult process that I'm still undergoing, but things get better the further down this road I go. So when it feels hard I relate to the line "When I was drownin', that's when I could finally breathe" because nothing will ever be harder than living that repressed and miserable life for all those years
