I watched the lyric video before the official one and there were a few great lines.

I rose up from the dead. I do it all the time.

There was a great piece in the Guardian about her. Or the Atlantic, I can't remember. She just fought and won that landmark court case though. She's a feminist hero at this point.

It was the Guardian

The extent of her co-writing is to be debated. Often times songwriters will just cut the singer in for the privilege of having them do the song. If you look at Swifts biggest hits they were all done under the Nsync/Backstreet Boys writer... And he doesn't co write with singers.

Sometimes a singer can elect to change a few lyrics here and there and that often counts towards a song-writing credit. But don't be under the assumption that she's sitting there with the writer creating the song with him.
