i don't think it really contradicted the old version. i think this song is about emily thinking about where she's going with her music and what the future has to offer. sort of destroying the legend of the "twilight galaxy" and who knows, maybe inbetween the old and new version, she made that step to understanding what it's all about. at least to her, for now.
emily used to talk about how she would explore the sadder parts to life because she believed that that's where the deeper parts in life were. and i think that second verse really is about her getting over this sadness that feels, really coming to terms with it and confronting it. i don't know. hahaha.
i think that this song is about stupid people stealing childrens' innocence and genuinity by destroying they're dreams and happiness in attempt to make them see the world as it is today, when really, the world can change into whatever change you make and like LIGHTS once said, "it's not about trying to change the world, it's trying to not be changed by it..."

Did they tell you, you should grow up
When you wanted to dream
Did they warn you, better shape up
If you want to succeed
I don't know about you, who are they talking to?
They aren't talking to...

They aren't talking to me
