The saddest Taylor Swift, Lorde and Lana Del Rey songs, A thread:
Liability, Lorde

It is about guys dumping someone because they think she's a "liability." This song is telling how she deals with the pain, and that's what "Liability" is really about. It's about finding yourself after someone else doesn't want you anymore
Dark paradise, Lana Del Rey

It is about someone she loved that died, or someone she broke up with. No one really knows if they’re gonna see someone they love, who is dead, again. It’s a terrible, yet beautiful place to be. You can dream about them, and nothing can disturb that
All Too Well, Taylor Swift

It is about when you feel pain that is so far past dysfunctional, that leaves you with so many emotions that you can't filter them down to simple emotions, that's when you know you really need to get out
Hard Feelings/Loveless, Lorde

It is about she was broken up and she's been coping not too well and then "Loveless" is a chance for her to just embrace those dark feelings for a moment. She lets it color her whole persepctive on the world, and it makes everything look darker.
Black Beauty, Lana Del Rey

It is about her man sees the world as black and white, no good in the world. But, she still loves him though he sees the world this way. She changes her world to adapt to his world, She knows she cant change the way he sees the world but she still try
Last Kiss, Taylor Swift

It is about the sadness of losing this person, losing all the memories, and the hopes you had for the future. There are times when you have this moment of truth where you just admit to yourself that you miss all these things
Ribs, Lorde

It is about getting old and rites of passage and being a teen and also could described as big stress
Old Money, Lana Del Rey

It is about her remembering her happy past, it's her lamenting the loss of what she had and knowing she can never have it again.
Dear John, Taylor Swift

It is sort of like the last email you would ever send to someone that you used to be in a relationship with. Usually people write this venting last email to someone and they say everything they want to say to that person, and they usually don't send it
A World Alone, Lorde

It is about a passionate romance, her mind can't help but jump cut not only to the relationship's inevitable failure, but past that, to death
Terrence Loves You, Lana Del Rey

It is about Terry Burn, Bowie’s step brother who committed suicide and suffered from mental illness. The song may be a tribute to Bowie and his brother, as well as being vague enough to capture grief and lament whilst still holding on to memories
Ronan, Taylor Swift

It is about a little boy, Ronan, who died in 2011 of neuroblastoma
Writer in the Dark, Lorde

It is about she travels a complete story arc from needing to please her boyfriend, to being broken up with, to plotting her revenge, to completely moving on and not needing to think about him anymore
The Blackest Day, Lana Del Rey

Tied Together With A Smile, Taylor Swift

Supercut, Lorde

It is about being confused over the failure of a romantic relationship and she looks back to only the good times, tries to ignore the bad ones, and wonders what she did wrong.
Heroin, Lana Del Rey

It is about dragging herself away from drug addictive but destructive relationships, opening herself to the wider world, and making a commitment to positive change, an emotional progression that is matched with subtle sonic shifts in her downbeat template
Never Grow Up, Taylor Swift

It is about growing up happens without you knowing it. Growing up is such a crazy concept because a lot of times when you were younger you wish you were older.
Pawn Shop Blues, Lana del rey

It is about she's on her own and has found that she has to pawn the earrings he gave her, to make means for herself. And seeing that love be sold is a sad thing for her, she almost cried as she watched them go
