A thread of Lana del rey lyrics that I personally resonate with:
“I’m tired of feeling like I’m fucking crazy
I’m tired of driving till I see stars in my eyes
All I’ve got to keep myself sane baby, so I just ride”
- Ride
“They said that love was enough but it wasn’t”
- Fine China
“There’s things I wanna say to you but I’ll just let you live like if you hold me without hurting me you’ll be the first who ever did”
- Cinnamon girl
“My father& #39;s love was always strong
My mother& #39;s glamour lives on and on
Yet still inside, I felt alone
For reasons unknown to me”
- Old money
“Maybe my contribution
Could be as small as hoping
That words could turn to birds and birds would send my thoughts your way”
“Winin& #39; and dinin& #39;, drinkin& #39; and drivin& #39;, excessive buyin& #39;
Overdose and dyin& #39; on our drugs and our love and our dreams and our rage
Blurrin& #39; the lines between real and the fake
God can only, I need somebody to hold me”
- National anthem
“She says, "You don& #39;t want to be like me
Don& #39;t wanna see all the things I& #39;ve seen"
I& #39;m dying, I& #39;m dying”
- Carmen
“My pussy tastes like pepsi cola
My eyes are wide like cherry pies”
- Cola
“I watch the skies getting light as I write
As I think about those years
As I whisper in your ear
I& #39;m always going to be right here
No one& #39;s going anywhere”
- How to disappear
“They were the only friends I ever had
We got into trouble, and when stuff got bad
I got sent away, I was waving on the train platform
Crying & #39;cause I know I& #39;m never coming back”
- This is what makes us girls
“Think I& #39;ll miss you forever
Like the stars miss the sun in the mornin& #39; sky
Later& #39;s better than never
Even if you& #39;re gone, I& #39;m gonna drive”
- Summertime sadness
“I was so confused as a little child
Tried to take what I could get, scared that I couldn& #39;t find, all the answers I need”
- Born to die
“But I& #39;m just a soul whose intentions are good
Oh Lord, please, don& #39;t let me be misunderstood”
- Don’t let me be misunderstood
“If you love me hardcore, then don& #39;t walk away”
- Never let me go
“Would you kill for me?
Would you die for me?
Put your hands where I can see them
Put them in the air”
- Live or die
“I waited for you
In the spot you said to wait
In the city, on a park bench
In the middle of the pouring rain
& #39;Cause I adored you”
- Tomorrow never came
“When you talk, it& #39;s like a movie and you& #39;re makin& #39; me crazy
& #39;Cause life imitates art
If I get a little prettier, can I be your baby?
You tell me life isn& #39;t that hard”
- Gods and monsters
“You said if you could have your way
You& #39;d make it nighttime all today
So it& #39;d suit the mood of your soul”
- Black beauty
“It& #39;s you‚ all the roads lead to you
Everything I want and do, all the things that I say
It& #39;s true, all the roads lead to you
Like the 405 I drive through
Every night and every day
I see you for who you really are
Why the thousands of girls love
The way Bill plays guitar”
“Who& #39;s doper than this bitch? Who& #39;s freer than me?
You wanna make the switch? Be my guest, baby
I& #39;m feelin& #39; all my fuckin& #39; feelings”
“I& #39;ve been tearing around in my fucking nightgown
24/7 Sylvia Plath
Writing in blood on my walls
& #39;Cause the ink in my pen don& #39;t work in my notepad
Don& #39;t ask if I& #39;m happy, you know that I& #39;m not
But at best, I can say I& #39;m not sad”
“I& #39;m flyin& #39; to the moon again, dreamin& #39; about marzipan
Taking all my medicine to take my thoughts away
I& #39;m getting on that aeroplane, leavin& #39; my old man again
I hope that I come back one day
To tell you that I really changed, baby”
“And I& #39;m wasted
Don& #39;t leave‚ I just need a wake-up call
I& #39;m facing the greatest
The greatest loss of them all”
“No one even knows how hard life was
I don& #39;t even think about it now because
I& #39;ve finally found you”
“I had a dream that I was fine
I wasn& #39;t crazy, I was divine”
“Prison isn& #39;t nothing to me if you& #39;ll be by my side”
“He used to call me poison
Like I was Poison Ivy
I could have died right there
& #39;Cause he was right beside me”
“We get down every Friday night
Dancing and grinding in the pale moonlight
Grand Ole Opry
We& #39;re feeling alright
Mary prays the rosary for my broken mind”
“We get so tired and we complain
& #39;Bout how it& #39;s hard to live
It& #39;s more than just a video game”
“You lose your way, just take my hand
You& #39;re lost at sea, then I& #39;ll command your boat to me again
Don& #39;t look too far, right where you are, that& #39;s where I am
I& #39;m your man
I& #39;m your man”
“You said to a friend that you wish you were doing better
I wanted to reach out, but I never said a thing
I shouldn& #39;t have done it, but I read it in your letter
You said to a friend that you wish you were doing better
I wanted to call you, but I didn& #39;t say a thing”
“I shared my body and my mind with you
That& #39;s all over now
I did what I had to do
I found another, anyhow
Shared my body and my mind with you
That& #39;s all over now
I did what I had to do
I could see you leaving now”
“The sun also rises on those who fail the call
My life, it comprises of losses and wins and fails and falls”
“You& #39;re falling hard, I push away, I& #39;m feelin& #39; hot to the touch
You say you miss me and I wanna say I miss you so much
But something keeps me really quiet, I& #39;m alive, I& #39;m a lush
Your love, your love, my love”
“All those special times I spent with you, my love
They don& #39;t mean shit compared to all your drugs
But I don& #39;t really mind, I& #39;ve got much more than that
Like my memories, I don& #39;t need that”
“I drive fast, wind in my hair
I push it to the limits & #39;cause I just don& #39;t care
You ask me where I& #39;ve been; I been everywhere
But I don& #39;t want to be nowhere but here”
“Don& #39;t be afraid of me
Don& #39;t be ashamed
Walk in the way of my soft resurrection
Idol of roses, iconic soul
I know your name
Lead me to war with your brilliant direction”
“They say I& #39;m too young to love you
They say I& #39;m too dumb to sing
They judge me like a picture book
By the colors, like they forgot to read”
“Happiness is a butterfly
Try to catch it, like, every night
It escapes from my hands into moonlight”
“All my friends tell me I should move on
I& #39;m lying in the ocean, singing your song
That& #39;s how you sang it
Loving you forever can& #39;t be wrong
Even though you& #39;re not here, won& #39;t move on”
“Cause I love you so much, I fall to pieces
My cherries and wine, rosemary and thyme
And all of my peaches are ruined,
Are ruined, are ruined”
“Dream a little dream of me
Make  me into something sweet
Turn the radio on, dancing to a pop song
Fuck it, I love you
I really do”
“Is the sun in your eyes, easy rider?
Do the flame-colored skies light your fire?
We are heavy metal lions
They will never understand
The kind of people you or I am
Bow your heads and take your hands”
