Taylor Swift "Innocent" Lyrics from VMAs to Kanye West

Here are the lyrics to Taylor Swift's new song "Innocent" performed at the VMA's regarding the incident with Kanye West last year. Her performance opened with clips form last year (not Kanye though) just her name being called, her shock and excitment, him running up, then her sad face.... she sang it beautifully and she looked elegant.




I guess you really did it this time
Left yourself in your war path
Lost your balance on a tightrope
Lost your mind trying to get it back



Wasn't it easier in your lunch box days?
Always a bigger bed to crawl into
Wasn't it beautiful when you believed in everything
And everybody believed in you?

It's all right, just wait and see
Your streaming lights are still bright to me oh
Who you are is not what you've been
You're still an innocent
You're still an innocent

There's some things you can't speak of
But tonight you'll leave it all again
You wouldn't be shattered on the floor now
If only you would sing only what you know ...

Wasn't it easy you're in your firefly-catching days
And everything out of reach, someone bigger brought down to you
Wasn't it beautiful running wild till you fell asleep
Before the monsters caught up to you?

It's all right, just wait and see
Your streaming lights are still bright to me oh
Who you are is not who you've been
You're still an innocent
It's OK, life is a tough crowd
32 and still growing up now
Who you are is not what you did
You're still an innocent

Time turns flames to ambers
You'll have new Septembers
Every one of us has messed up too
Mind change like the weather
I hope you remember today is never too late
To be brave (ohh)

It's all right, just wait and see
Your streaming lights are bright to me oh
Who you are is not where you've been
You're still an innocent
It's OK, life is a tough crowd
32 and still growing up now
Who you are is not what you did
You're still an innocent
Lost your balance on a tightrope

If you notice any mistakes to the lyrics let me know I know a few commenters on MTV listed changes which have been edited...
