The track was written in collaboration with Lana Del Rey, who gave it her ethereal vibes. The lyrics are telling a story about a couple falling for each other.
Teen Wolf fans know that acting is not the only passion for Dylan O'Brien, who, before becoming a big-shot actor, produced, directed, and acted in short comedy films released through his personal YouTube channel. Dylan also played drums for the independent rock band Slow Kids at Play which makes him a perfect choice for Swift's new album.
