From Shakespearean tragedy to personal revelations, Taylor Swift's latest album The Life of a Showgirl explores love, loss, fame and resilience like never before. The Fate of Ophelia closely references William Shakespeare's Ophelia in the drama Hamlet. The noblewoman had entered a state of madness due to Prince Hamlet's actions. Taylor plays with the idea, describing the feeling of being driven insane by awful men. Taylor Swift begins to mend situations and sort life's curveballs in the song Opalite. It is about celebrating the little wins that turn into bigger joys eventually.
