Innocent (Taylor Swift song)
"Innocent" is a song written and recorded by American singer-songwriter Taylor Swift for her third studio album, ''Speak Now'' (2010). Allegedly written in response to Kanye West's interruption of her acceptance speech at the 2009 MTV Video Music Awards, Swift performed the song at the following year's ceremony as a means of putting the controversy behind them. The song achieved moderate critical and commercial success, debuting at #53 and #27 on the Canadian Hot 100 and ''Billboard'' Hot 100, respectively, following the release of ''Speak Now''.
==Background and composition==
"Innocent" is a soft rock and country folk-inspired ballad with a duration of five minutes and two seconds. The song features sparse instrumentation to reflect the simplicity of innocence, while lyrically it speaks about someone who has lost their way in life but who is "still an innocent". With lyrics such as "time turns flames to embers / You'll have new Septembers" and "Today is never too late to be brand new," the song also conveys a message of forgiveness and redemption, describing how anyone can rise above and move past a difficult time in their life.
In the liner notes for ''Speak Now'', Swift explained that every song on the album is an "open letter" to someone in her life, "telling them what I meant to tell them in person." She also noted that one song in particular is addressed to "someone I forgive for what he said in front of the whole world," alluding to the MTV Video Music Awards incident.〔 Critics have noted influences of that event in the lyrics to "Innocent", particularly in the reference to September (when the awards show took place) and the line "32 and still growing up now" (that being West's age at the time). Swift revealed in an interview with ''New York'' magazine that while she knew people "expected me to write a song about ()," she felt it was important to "write a song ''to'' him."
