Taylor Swift seemingly wrote about her breakup from Joe Alwyn on her 11th studio album, ‘The Tortured Poets Department’
Many fans speculated that much of Taylor Swift’s new album, The Tortured Poets Department, would be inspired by her split from Joe Alwyn — and they weren’t completely wrong.
“It sort of reminded me of why songwriting is something that actually gets me through life,” she told fans. “And I’ve never had an album where I’ve needed songwriting more than I needed it on Tortured Poets.”Track fives have become famous for being some of Swift’s most gut-wrenching tunes, and The Tortured Poets Department is no different.
Swift also notes her “quiet resentment” toward her now-ex in “So Long, London,” which she says has grown over time.“You swore that you loved me but where were the clues,” she asks. “I died on the altar waiting for the proof. You sacrificed us to the God of your bluest days.” “Stopped trying to make him laugh,” she says. “Stopped trying to drill the safe / And I’m just getting color back into my face, I’m just mad as hell because I loved this place for so long, London.”One of the most heartbreaking songs on TTPD, “loml” seemingly addresses Swift’s feelings of betrayal over her relationship with Alwyn not working out.
There were also rumors that Swift fell for Alwyn while she was dating Tom Hiddleston, which she seemingly alludes to in Midnights’ “High Fidelity.” “Your integrity makes me seem small/ You paint dreamscapes on the wall,” she croons on the 2020 track penned when they were still together. “I talk s–t with my friends / It’s like I’m wasting your honor.”The most upbeat track on the record, “I Can Do It With a Broken Heart” is about Swift trying to hold it together after calling it quits with Alwyn as she launched the worldwide Eras Tour.
Swift confesses that after noticing that her former partner forgot to turn his phone location off, she “watches as he walks into some bar” and it “hits her” that he might not “miss” her the way she hopes.
