Music
The Tortured Poets Departmentends with a moving, meta song about turning heartbreak into art.
Swifts albums often end with cathartic anthems that speak to healing and new perspective, from Cleanto Daylight.
The new song The Manuscript lives up to that tradition.
Once we have spoken our saddest story, we can be free of it.
Here are The Manuscript lyrics, explained.
Who Is The ManuscriptAbout?
However, a professor later encourages her to write about the experience, which is turned into a performance.
Watching the story unfold, Swift sings, she knew what the agony had been for.
The song has several parallels to SwiftsAll Too Well short film.
Now and then I reread the manuscript, Swift sings.
But the story isnt mine anymore.
