I'm walking fast through the traffic lights
Busy streets and busy lives
And all we know is touch and go
We are alone with our changing minds
We fall in love till it hurts or bleeds, or fades in
time
And I never saw you coming
And I’ll never be the same
You come around and the armor falls
Pierce the room like a cannon ball
Now all we know, is don’t let go
We are alone just you and me
Up in your room and our slates are clean
Just twin fire signs, four blue eyes
So you were never a saint
And I love the shades are wrong
We learn to live with the pain
Mostly of broken hearts
But this love is great and wild
And I never saw you coming
And I’ll never be the same again
This is a state of grace
This is a worth while fight
Love is a ruthless game
Unless you play it good and right
These are the hands of fate
You’re my Achilles heel
This is the golden age of something good
And right and real
And I never saw you coming
And I’ll never be the same
And I never saw you coming
And I’ll never be the same
This is a state of grace
This is a worth while fight
Love is a ruthless game
Unless you play it good and right

An impressively bold statement of intent, Red opener “State Of Grace” attempts to emulate the widescreen stadium rock of The Joshua Tree-era U2 as an uncharacteristically optimistic Swift extols the virtues of a ‘raging and wild’ love amidst a dynamic array of The Edge-esque echo-drenched riffs.
