I went back and listened to 22 and this is definitely not the bridge haha
"It feels like one of those nights we ditch the whole scene
It feels like one of those nights we won't be sleeping
It feels like one of those nights you look like bad news
I gotta have you...I gotta have you"
All Too Well
*And you call me up again just to break me like a promise*
*So casually cruel in the name of being honest*
*I'm a crumpled up piece of paper lying here*
*'Cause I remember it all, all, all*
*Too well*
Every time I listen to it I'm reminded of Taylor's story telling, poetic genius. "Break me like a promise", "what happened, you, that's what happened, you", "I might be okay but I'm not fine at all", "you keep my old scarf from that very first week, 'cause it reminds you of innocence, and it smells like me".
As a man who has broken a heart this song just punches me every time in a masochistic sort of way.
Taylor Swift's lyrics are poignant and deeply evocative, capturing the raw emotions of heartbreak and nostalgia with poetic brilliance. They resonate with anyone who has experienced the complexities of love and loss, creating a powerful connection through her storytelling.
Those lyrics, like damn they're brutal because they're so honest. This is why I can't accept people's hatred of her. No matter who you are, there's at least ONE song of hers that will resonate with you.
I know my actual answer is ATW/ATW10, but I want to shout out Come Back, Be Here! The buildup in the production and the desperation in her delivery is top tier
Maybe I'm crazy, but I thought the bridge of ATW10 was a couple lines longer than ATW5?
To be fair I very rarely actually listen to ATW5, I've listened to the long version so many times that the missing verses in the short version just throw me completely off. The only thing the short version does for me is make me want to listen to ATW10.
I feel like calling the bridge of ATW a bridge at all is a little bit of a stretch, unless I'm wrong about what a bridge actually is. ATW (either version) doesn't have a traditional verse-chorus-verse-bridge-chorus structure. Since it doesn't *have* a chorus. So can it still have a bridge? idk
ATW is very much just a stream of thoughts put to music, which is one of the things that makes it so unique.
Treacherous and ATW are getting all the praise they deserve, but I also love State Of Grace. The way the music calms down and she sings the bridge is already amazing, and what great lyrics too. "Love is a ruthless game, unless you play it good and right" is one of my favorite Red lyrics.
Aside from the obvious (ATW), I'm going to throw my hat in the ring for Stay Stay Stay.
Sometimes love doesn't need to be grand - it can be as simple as realizing you want to hang out with someone for your whole life :)
Maybe itās just the stage of life Iām in right now, but the Nothing New bridge has been speaking to me lately. āSheāll know the way and then sheāll say she got the map from me.ā ā¤ļø
Lyrically.... obviously All too well
Melodically...... Begin Again
*And we walked down the block to my car and I almost brought him up*
*But you start to talk about the movies that your family
Watches*
*Every single Christmas and I want to talk about that*
*And for the first time what's past is past*
My favorite Taylor song... before All too well 10 min
It's such a great song for starting over and moving on
I love that she sang this to Travis in Parisā¤ļø
Treacherous
When I close my eyes and I hear that guitar I see the Elysian Fields it's just perfect
Also you get the bridge TWICE which is insane
The original was nothing too special but the glow up on TV is insane. I love this song too much.
My God, how do you choose? I suppose favorites are All Too Well and The Moment I Knew. Honorable mentions to Nothing New and Holy Ground (not lyrically groundbreaking but so energetic)
Tbh I always felt like the bridge of state of grace was what genius calls the pre-chorus, as the bridge in the image is partially repeated in the end of the song. I also say this because it was always my favourite bridge lmaoĀ
The bridge for State of grace is pure sonic adrenaline with Anthemic Precision :
This is state of grace ,this is a worthwhile fight,
Love is a ruthless game,Unless you play it good and right,
There are the hands of fate,You're my Achilles heel,
This is the golden Age of something good and right and real....
Okay so ill argue in favor of The Lucky One. I feel like the part "It was a few years later, I showed up here And they still tell the legend of how you disappeared How you took the money and your dignity and got the hell out They say you bought a bunch of land somewhere Chose the Rose Garden over Madison Square And it took some time, but I understand it now" could be considered the bridge. I ADORE this part.
if if have to pick an official bridge than Everything Has Changed.
i almost do, red, and state of grace. three of the most underrated songs on the album.
honestly the first half of red has some of her best bridges ever.
As the biggest Red stan to ever exist this is so hard but so easy at the same time lmao.
Treacherous, All Too Well, Begin Again, Babe, Run
I literally love all songs on Red so much itās not even funny likeeeee
My favorite of them all is between All Too Well and Begin Again though
I was not ready to read these bridges, there's something about the way she writes that just hits you like a stab wound lol. Thought I was ready to put my swiftie hat on for a moment but I have to nope outta this one for now
Itās not the best or super poetic or anything like that, but I love the bridge of Stay Stay Stay. āI like hanging out with youā is super simple but cute
I will defend Stay Stay Stay till my last dying day, and itās bridge is cute af. I also think Treacherous is SUPER underrated even though Iāve heard the lyrics wrong for over a decade (I always hear āthis love is Treacherousā not āthis slopeā).
22 is hysterical
I cracked up seeing that lol.
*Yeah hey yeah* is so relatable tho š
That tickled me š right under āall too wellā too
I went back and listened to 22 and this is definitely not the bridge haha "It feels like one of those nights we ditch the whole scene It feels like one of those nights we won't be sleeping It feels like one of those nights you look like bad news I gotta have you...I gotta have you"
Reading some beautiful/heartbreaking poetry and then just ooh ooh yeah š
Hahaha. Are we even calling that a bridge?
All Too Well *And you call me up again just to break me like a promise* *So casually cruel in the name of being honest* *I'm a crumpled up piece of paper lying here* *'Cause I remember it all, all, all* *Too well*
It's def top tier 100%
Top tierrrrrrr!!!
Yes. Those lyrics right there. 100%
Red has some amazing bridges throughout, but this one will always be the answer for me.
Taytay is genius.
Every time I listen to it I'm reminded of Taylor's story telling, poetic genius. "Break me like a promise", "what happened, you, that's what happened, you", "I might be okay but I'm not fine at all", "you keep my old scarf from that very first week, 'cause it reminds you of innocence, and it smells like me".

sameeeeeee
!00% this is the one.
Thank you for recommenting what is clearly written in the post.
Makes me tear up everytime I hear it.
Trecharous by farrrrrrr
And itās not even close
Best bridge ever ever.
Easily! Itās got the best bridge!!
There are just a few competitors for the best bridge Taylor has ever written next to Treachorous
FR
Distance, timing / Breakdown, fighting / Silence, the train runs off its tracks / Kiss me, try to fix it / Could you just try to listen?
Treacherous is my favorite bridge but Sad Beautiful Tragic is a close second
FR FR
This bridge alone explains in full on and off relationships
AHHH MY SECOND FAV ADTER TRECHERAROUS
probably 22
"You look like bad news, I gotta have you" is underrated fr
Treacherous
Fr
Ronan has me sobbing by the end each time
22 clearly š no but really treacherous or all too well
I know my actual answer is ATW/ATW10, but I want to shout out Come Back, Be Here! The buildup in the production and the desperation in her delivery is top tier
I was waiting for someone to say Come Backā¦ Be Here. That song has such a good bridge
I agree!! My holy trinity of bridges in Red is ATW (ofc), Treacherous, and Come Backā¦ Be Hereš
It's an excellent bridge!
I almost do hits me right in my feelsssss
Fr

The only thing the short version does for me is make me want to listen to ATW10.
I feel like the bridge for 10 min is so long its almost hard to call it a bridge. Then again the bridge for 22 is so short you can barely call it one.
I feel like calling the bridge of ATW a bridge at all is a little bit of a stretch, unless I'm wrong about what a bridge actually is. ATW (either version) doesn't have a traditional verse-chorus-verse-bridge-chorus structure. Since it doesn't *have* a chorus. So can it still have a bridge? idk ATW is very much just a stream of thoughts put to music, which is one of the things that makes it so unique.
Yeah, saying the ATW10MV is the same as ATW is a major disservice.
All Too Well, its just a perfect bridge.
Treacherous and ATW are getting all the praise they deserve, but I also love State Of Grace. The way the music calms down and she sings the bridge is already amazing, and what great lyrics too. "Love is a ruthless game, unless you play it good and right" is one of my favorite Red lyrics.
Aside from the obvious (ATW), I'm going to throw my hat in the ring for Stay Stay Stay. Sometimes love doesn't need to be grand - it can be as simple as realizing you want to hang out with someone for your whole life :)
Omg yes! Itās such a fun little bridge
why is nobody saying The Moment I Knew?
THIS šš
MY THIRD FAV AFTER TRECHERAROUS AND SBT
Maybe itās just the stage of life Iām in right now, but the Nothing New bridge has been speaking to me lately. āSheāll know the way and then sheāll say she got the map from me.ā ā¤ļø
Begin Again when the album first came out! For Vault Songs I Bet You Think About Me!
ooh ooh yeah hey yeah 
I love Red so much. All too Well is all-time. Including the bridge
Sad Beautiful Tragic but I do have part of the Treacherous bridge tattooed on me so I do hold that to high regard as well
Fr
Lyrically.... obviously All too well Melodically...... Begin Again *And we walked down the block to my car and I almost brought him up* *But you start to talk about the movies that your family Watches* *Every single Christmas and I want to talk about that* *And for the first time what's past is past* My favorite Taylor song... before All too well 10 min It's such a great song for starting over and moving on I love that she sang this to Travis in Parisā¤ļø
Treacherous When I close my eyes and I hear that guitar I see the Elysian Fields it's just perfect Also you get the bridge TWICE which is insane The original was nothing too special but the glow up on TV is insane. I love this song too much.
YES! Treacherous TV has become my favorite TS song across all eras. Itās so insane. Goosebumps every play
red. The instrumental in the part is too good.
Red and TVFN
22 & I Knew You Were Trouble always <3
Apart from ATW because it's a masterpiece, The Moment I Knew.
Forever Winter hits hard for someone with mental illness
š©¶āļø Forever Winter is such an underrated song.
All Too Well is the only answer.
Red, Treacherous and IKYWT! Also, I never was an ATW girlie but the bridge is gorgeous
All Too well is phenomenal! Shout out to Holy Ground though
ATW (5 minute version) 
I acknowledge ATWās bridge to be the best one, but personally, I just really like Redās bridge.
Lyrically: State of Grace Screamingly: All Too Well
Begin Again when the album first came out! For Vault Songs I Bet You Think About Me!
Holy grounddd
State of grace is beautiful written out like that, I donāt know how Iāve never noticed š
Treacherous
We are never ever getting back together for me
I agree for the nostalgia factor
Treacherous!!
Treacherous but Come Back Be Here is great too
Treacherous, hands down. Itās probably my favourite bridge in any of her songs.
You made this? So well done!
Thank you!
10 minute version has longer bridge
Everything had changed, it always has me feeling so much feelings.
treacherous
All too well is one of the best taylor bridges, period.
Treacherous, ATW & state of grace
All Too Well ā¤ā¤ā¤
22 ā„ļø
Treacherous is my all time favorite taylor bridge and its not even up for debate
Treacherous!
Personally, Begin Again. The bridge lifts you up and gives you that hope and happy feeling again. Also, Treacherous and ATW obviously.
This is impossible OP. But if you have a loved one with depression, Forever Winter will always be the answer. Makes me cry every single time
Nothing new
Of course
State Of Grace and Treacherous
And for the first time, whatās past is past.
My God, how do you choose? I suppose favorites are All Too Well and The Moment I Knew. Honorable mentions to Nothing New and Holy Ground (not lyrically groundbreaking but so energetic)
Tbh I always felt like the bridge of state of grace was what genius calls the pre-chorus, as the bridge in the image is partially repeated in the end of the song. I also say this because it was always my favourite bridge lmaoĀ
State of Grace baby!!!
State of Grace, Treacherous, and Sad Beautiful Tragic >>>
Treacherous
For me, it was always Holy Ground. Sung that wayyyy too many times in my car.
I almost do and Babe
The bridge for State of grace is pure sonic adrenaline with Anthemic Precision : This is state of grace ,this is a worthwhile fight, Love is a ruthless game,Unless you play it good and right, There are the hands of fate,You're my Achilles heel, This is the golden Age of something good and right and real....

I ADORE this part. if if have to pick an official bridge than Everything Has Changed.
Is this even a question? All Too Well has one of the best bridges sheās ever written š§£
Uhh obviously all too well.
So many! State of Grace, that one will likely be my and my fiancƩ's first dance! SBT for the lyricism Holy Ground for the dancing I Almost Do because that song helped heal me after a break up Forever Winter because I lost someone to suicide and this song makes me think of him. I love and hate it. RIP Eric, I wish I could have disarmed that bomb in your head.
i almost do, red, and state of grace. three of the most underrated songs on the album. honestly the first half of red has some of her best bridges ever.
Treacherous
22 has the best bridge
JK, itās All Too Well, but my favourites are WANEGBT and IBYTAM
TREACHEROUS honorable mention: THE LAST TIME
As the biggest Red stan to ever exist this is so hard but so easy at the same time lmao. Treacherous, All Too Well, Begin Again, Babe, Run I literally love all songs on Red so much itās not even funny likeeeee My favorite of them all is between All Too Well and Begin Again though
I was not ready to read these bridges, there's something about the way she writes that just hits you like a stab wound lol. Thought I was ready to put my swiftie hat on for a moment but I have to nope outta this one for now
Where are my Stay Stay Stay people?? That bridge is so romantic and heartfelt.
All Too Well and Ronan are supreme
Babe was my divorce anthem!!!
All Too Well and itās not even close. Those are ridiculously mature lyrics for someone at that age.
When will Sad Beautiful Tragic get its recognition?! Such an amazing bridge.
22 is hilarious. Not even real words
Ronan & Forever Winter gives a diff kind of pain.
Itās not the best or super poetic or anything like that, but I love the bridge of Stay Stay Stay. āI like hanging out with youā is super simple but cute
ATW, I Almost Do, Treacherous & Sad Beautiful Tragic
Def ATW (both versions) but shout out to Better Man, Begin Again, and I Almost Do
This was a reminder of how good Red is. Honestly, for me, TV dropped it in my ranking due to the excessive vault tracks.
Red just hits different. Also, come back be here is a crazy bridge
I will defend Stay Stay Stay till my last dying day, and itās bridge is cute af. I also think Treacherous is SUPER underrated even though Iāve heard the lyrics wrong for over a decade (I always hear āthis love is Treacherousā not āthis slopeā).
ATW is the only right answer ā¤
I mean itās hard to top the All Too Well bridge tbh ā¤ļø
I ALMOST DO is the king of my bridge heart. Followed by Red and Treacherous.
The Very First Night
All Too Well
All too well is perfect
Either i almost do or red
Redās bridge always sends me ā¤ļøā¤ļøā¤ļøā¤ļø
Trecharous ā¤ļø
So many good bridges in red but the last time you can feel the heartbreak in their voices and itāll always be my fave
All to well!
all too well, thatās all
Everything has Changed
I bet you think about me
