What it is
"Back to December" is from Taylor Swift's 2010 album Speak Now, which she wrote entirely herself. It is a remorseful apology to a former partner, in which the narrator regrets a relationship she did not value enough at the time. Swift described it as her first apology in song, written for someone who had treated her kindly and whom she felt she had let down.
