Taylor Swift Her New Song Lyrics Revealed: Taylor Swift performed her new song “Innocent” last night at the 2010 MTV VMAs, which addressed her infamous interruption from Kanye West at last year’s VMAs. “A lot of you have been asking about the lyrics to ‘Innocent‘,” said Taylor, who wrote the song. “So here they are.

Guess you really did it this time
Left yourself in your war path
Lost your balance on a tight rope
Lost your mind trying to get it back

Wasn’t it easier in your lunchbox days
Always a bigger bed to crawl into
Wasn’t it beautiful when you believed in everything
And everybody believed in you

It’s alright, just wait and see
Your string of lights is still bright to me
Oh, who you are is not where you’ve been
You’re still an innocent
Still an innocent

Did some things you can’t speak of
But tonight you live it all again
You wouldn’t be shattered on the floor now
If only you had seen what you know now then
Wasn’t it easier in your firefly catching days
When everything out of reach someone bigger brought down to you

Wasn’t it beautiful running wild ’til you fell asleep
Before the monsters caught up to you
It’s alright, just wait and see
Your string of lights is still bright to me
Oh, who your are is not where you’ve been
You’re still an innocent

It’s okay, life is a tough crowd
Thirty two and still growing up now
Who you are is not what you did
You’re still an innocent
Time turns flames to embers
You’ll have new Septembers
Every one of us has messed up too

Minds change like the weather
I hope you remember
Today is never too late to… be brand new.

CHORUS

Lost your balance on a tight rope
It’s never too late to get it back
