RRI.CO.ID, Bogor - Taylor Swift kembali memukau para penggemar dengan merilis video musik terbarunya berjudul Opalite pada Minggu, 8 Februari 2026, setelah debut awal di Spotify dan Apple Music. Video ini adalah visual kedua dari album terbarunya The Life of a Showgirl yang telah mencuri perhatian dunia sejak Oktober 2025.

Dalam video berdurasi beberapa menit tersebut, Swift menampilkan konsep unik yang menggabungkan elemen romansa lama dan sentuhan humor. Alur cerita dimulai dengan iklan bergaya tahun 1990-an untuk produk fiksi bernama "Opalite" yang diklaim mampu mengubah masalah menjadi kebahagiaan.

Lagu ini menyampaikan pesan tentang perjalanan emosional dari masa allu penuh kegagalan cinta menuju kebahagiaan. Liriknya diawali dengan pengakuan tentang kebiasaan lama yang sulit ditinggalkan dan kesadaran bahwa cinta masa lalu terkadang terasa seperti sesuatu yang "selalu berakhir".

Momentum kunci dalam lagu adalah ketika tokoh dalam lirik menerima nasihat dari ibunya bahwa segala cobaan itu "baik-baik saja". Ini menunjukkan bahwa setiap orang harus belajar menerima masa lalu dan terus menari melalui fase sulit kehidupan.

Berikut Lirik lagu Taylor Swift - Opalite:

I had a bad habit

Of missing lovers past

My brother used to call it

'Eating out of the trash'

It's never gonna last

I thought my house was haunted

I used to live with ghosts

And all the perfect couples

Said, "When you know you know."

And, "When you don't you don't."

And all of the foes and all of the friends

Have seen it before, they'll see it again

Life is a song, it ends when it ends

I was wrong

But my Mama told me

It's alright

You were dancing through the lightning strikes

Sleepless in the onyx night

But now the sky is opalite

Oh oh oh oh, oh my Lord

Never made no one like you before

You had to make your own sunshine

But now the sky is opalite

Oh oh oh oh oh

You couldn't understand it

Why you felt alone

You were in it for real

She was in her phone

And you were just a pose

And don't we try to love love

We give it all we got (we give it all we got)

You finally left the table

And what a simple thought

You're starving til you're not

And all of the foes and all of the friends

Have messed up before, they'll mess up again

Life is a song, it ends when it ends

You move on

And that's when I told you

It's alright

You were dancing through the lightning strikes

Sleepless in the onyx night

But now the sky is opalite

Oh oh oh oh, oh my Lord

Never met no one like you before

You had to make your own sunshine

But now the sky is opalite

Oh oh oh oh oh

This is just

A storm inside a teacup

But shelter here with me, my love

Thunder like a drum

This life will beat you up, up, up, up

This is just a temporary speed bump

But failure brings you freedom

And I can bring you love, love, love, love, love

Don't you sweat it, baby

It's alright

You were dancing through the lightning strikes

Sleepless in the onyx night

But now the sky is opalite

Oh oh oh oh, oh my Lord

Never made no one like you before, no

You had to make your own sunshine

But now the sky is opalite

Oh oh oh oh oh
