Taylor Swift says she’s “completely in shock” over Monday’s mass-stabbing that killed two little girls and injured nine others at a dance class inspired by her music near Liverpool, England.

The 14-time Grammy winner, 34, took to her Instagram Story Tuesday morning, saying she’s “at a complete loss” following the harrowing news.

“The horror of yesterday’s attack in Southport is washing over me continuously and I’m just completely in shock…” the “Fortnight” hitmaker wrote.

“The loss of life and innocence, and the horrendous trauma inflicted on everyone who was there, the families and first responders.”

“These were just little kids at a dance class,” Swift continued in a message to her 283 million Instagram followers.

“I am at a complete loss for how to ever convey my sympathies to these families.”

Hours later, Merseyside Police Chief Constable Serena Kennedy confirmed that two children died and nine others were injured, including six left fighting for their lives.

Two adults were left in critical condition from being stabbed as they “were bravely trying to protect” the kids.

Responding officers “were shocked to find that multiple people, many of whom were children, had been subjected to a ferocious attack and had serious injuries,” Kennedy said in a press conference Monday.

Authorities have not disclosed a motive — or any connection between the unidentified teen and the victims. Police say that the attack is not considered to be terrorist-related.

The victims were rushed to three local children’s hospitals, where they currently remain.

Following the horror attack, Swift’s fans have raised more than $25,000 for the families of the victims.
