Taylor Swift made it look simple continuing with her Eras Tour efficiencies after her split from Joe Alwyn made headings in April 2023– however that does not imply it was.
In her tune “I Can Do It With a Broken Heart,” which is track No. 13 on The Tortured Poets DepartmentSwift, 34, confesses that she was just pretending to be delighted while reeling from the break up.
“Cause I'm a genuine difficult kid, I can manage my s– t/ They stated, ‘Baby, got ta phony it till you make it,' and I did/ Lights, video camera, bitch, smile, even when you wan na pass away/ He stated he ‘d enjoy me all his life,” Swift sings over the upbeat, synth-driven track.
The Grammy winner goes on to state she was “shattered while the crowd was shouting, ‘More.'”

“I was smiling like I'm winning, I was striking my marks, cause I can do it with a damaged heart/ I'm so depressed I imitate it's my birthday every day,” Swift sings. “I'm so consumed with him however he prevents me like the pester/ I sob a lot however I am so efficient, it's an art.”
The tune stands in plain contrast to a declaration that Swift made throughout a May 2023 Eras Tour program in Foxborough, Massachusetts.
“I do not understand, I've simply never ever been this delighted in my life– in all elements of my life– ever previously,” she informed the crowd. “And I simply wish to thank you for belonging of that. I do not understand. It's not simply the trip. My life lastly seems like it makes good sense.”

The remark came in the middle of Swift's short love with The 1975 frontman Matty Healy, which United States Weekly verified concerned an end in June 2023 after less than 2 months. It's possible that “I Can Do It With a Broken Heart” talks to Swift's sensations about ending things with Healy, 35, although the lyrics indicate a long-lasting relationship as Swift sings about pledges to “like me for perpetuity” and “discovering his things in drawers.”
