My Innocence
Bif Naked Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
It threw a curveball at my head
Then came the ringing in my ears
I filled the bathtub with my tears
Kiss my innocence goodbye
My innocence just died
Kiss my innocence goodbye
I won't be mourning the loss
Not going to bear it like a cross
Don't worry about me dear
Thankyou I'll manage it from here
I can be a big girl
And take it all in stride
Swallowing my pride
Kiss my innocence goodbye
My innocence just died
Kiss my innocence goodbye
My innocence just died
If what they tell me is true
I should be waking up brand new
And see the sun up in the sky
I guess it must have been my time
To kiss my innocence goodbye
Because my innocence just died
You can kiss my innocence goodbye
My innocence just died
You can kiss my innocence goodbye
You can kiss my innocence goodbye
You can kiss my innocence goodbye
You can kiss my innocence goodbye, goodbye goodbye
The lyrics of Bif Naked's My Innocence seem to be describing the loss of a certain innocence, perhaps pertaining to a traumatic experience or something significant that has happened. The song starts off with the singer feeling disoriented and upset after something someone said. The ringing in their ears could connote a metaphorical trauma, like the phrase "ringing in one's ears" meaning a feeling that won't go away.
As the chorus hits, the singer is clear about how they feel - their innocence is gone, and they won't mourn it or carry it like a burden. They express that they are capable of handling whatever curveballs life throws at them, even if it means swallowing their pride.
Towards the end of the song, the singer suggests that their loss of innocence might have been inevitable or predestined, as they mention that it was "just [their] time" to say goodbye to their innocence.
Overall, the song is quite symbolic and can be interpreted in many ways, but at its core, it seems to be exploring the theme of growing up, facing reality, and accepting that life does not always go as planned.
