Breaking up slowly is a hard thing to do
I love you only, but it's making me blue
So don't send me flowers like you always do
It's hard to be lonely, but it's the right thing

Are these my good years, or do I have none?
Are there really good years for everyone?
I don't wanna live with a life of regret
I don't wanna end up like Tammy Wynette
 
[Lana + Nikki]
'Cause breaking up slowly is a hard thing to do
I love you only, but it's making me blue
So don't send me flowers like you always do
It's hard to be lonely, but it's the right thing to do
 
[Lana Del Rey]
George got arrested out on the lawn
We might be breaking up right after this song
Will he still love me long after I'm gone?
Or did he see it coming all along?
 
[Lana + Nikki]
'Cause breaking up slowly is a hard thing to do
I love you only, and it's making me blue
So don't send me flowers like you always do
It's hard to be lonely (baby, breaking up is hard to do)
Breaking up slowly (baby, breaking up is hard to do)
Breaking up slowly is a hard thing to do
I love you only, and it's making me blue
So don't send me flowers like you always do
It's hard to be lonely, but it's the right thing to do

Another video & picture on last slide -
 

I like homemade videos, but this felt very limited. Previous homemade vids had concepts/stories behind them and the ones that didn't had planned out shots or looks. She previously used much more camera techniques, even things as basic as zoom, tilt or close ups. Consider the unreleased Honeymoon video, nothing much happens in terms of plot, but it's so visually captivating because of the way she filmed it. This really felt like cobbled together footage found on her phone with maybe 30~ seconds of planned footage. There's a noticeable difference between a lazy homemade vid and one that had lots of thought and effort put it into it. 

just heard it. it's cute, but I'm always expecting something like Ultraviolence or Honeymoon. I think I'll have to get over the fact that those albums are unique. she's been repeating herself since Lust for Life. and I don't think we'll ever get again something so raw like Ultraviolence or so dreamy like Honeymoon. I actually wanna kill myself but ok

her albums before i never learn were just a noisy mess, her debut album was a snooze fest, then that seaside album was just noisy imo, then i never learn was kinda cute as it sounded more ethereal and pretty, then we have her magnum opus so sad so sexy, which was mediocre trap but it slapped, i said what i said

I quite like the new song, and i also really like so sad so sexy, but it kind of feels like a B-side from the album or at least like she's in the same era? I'd like her to switch up her sound again tbh.

I thought she said she was retiring or was that a fever dream... so glad she's back and i'm so on board for a new album! SSSS was her best album imo (i didn't like her older music much)

I understand 0 words but this is beautiful:
 

I think her stuff with Mark Ronson is really her element. She should keep exploring funk/house!!!

y’all he thought I was serious...???
 
good luck with everything tho! 

turn your location on

I think they did a really great job dissecting it!
"Maybe that’s not the truth of the story, but sometimes a neat ending can undermine the thing – and sometimes allowing yourself to lift off a little from the facts can get you closer to the truth."
 

you’re here too lmao not the greek philosopher stan with a foot fetish getting brave 

the point is that there is no way a book signing and meeting fans could be considered an essential task. The reason why trader joes and targets are crowded is because they're supermarkets that people buy essentials from. promoting your poetry book last minute and with basically no preparation at all  that it had to be shut down by the health department in less than an hour (probably because an employee complained) is completely different from this. they can do whatever they want but we can call them stupid and inconsiderate tbh 
 
i also don't agree with restaurants being open but in LA at least you can't even eat inside the actual buildings, just outside or in a patio. She's hosting a crowded event in a closed space, there's really no excuse for this tbh.

The artist reflects on her new poetry collection 'Violet Bent Backwards Over the Grass'
 
When Lana Del Rey first began writing poetry, her words would come to her suddenly. Oftentimes a poem would reveal itself in its entirety, ready for Del Rey to dictate it onto the page. “I would drop everything if any sort of poem started to come to mind,” she tells Bustle. “It’s something I’ve experienced before with songwriting but less and less in the last few years.” While the singer-songwriter has sprinkled her music with homages to poets throughout her career in lyrics like “I've been tearing around in my f*cking nightgown, 24/7 Sylvia Plath,” Del Rey only began writing poetry in 2017, when she was experiencing writer’s block while crafting her album Norman F*cking Rockwell. The result of that creative exercise is Violet Bent Backwards Over the Grass, a sprawling collection of 13 longform poems and a selection of shorter works.
 
Violet’s poems tap into Del Rey’s signature gauzy, glamorous style. She muses about 1960s Hollywood, heartbreak, vaping, and summertime while assuming different personas — from Del Rey to a woman named Tessa DiPietro, to even Elizabeth Grant, her given name. Paired with personal photographs, the collection is a melancholy meditation on Los Angeles. But Del Rey says her inspirations extended beyond California.
“My perfect muse is probably wherever I am. When I was in New York the city was definitely defining for my attitude. I’m slightly aqueous and malleable in that way,” she explains. “When I was in the Midwest I felt very much called to be there. I felt like I was catching a little bit of lightning in a bottle by having so much space in the air to work. It gave me that electric feeling in my stomach that I get right before I create something great.”
 
Ahead of Violet Bent Backwards Over the Grass’ release, Bustle spoke with Del Rey about reading books on midwifery, her next poetry collection entitled Behind the Iron Gates — Insights From an Institution, and why spaghetti is a great writing snack.
 
On what she’s reading now:
At the moment I’m mostly interested in reading about midwifery and herbalism and I’m re-watching the BBC version of Pride and Prejudice.
 
On wanting to go back to school:
I always go about sharpening my craft in a roundabout way. For instance, my writing got better when I stopped practicing other things. I think for me the biggest tool has been just allowing myself enough space to let my innermost thoughts reveal themselves to me.
At this point I’ve done that enough and I am actually ready to get more seriously into the craft of writing — or the idea of taking more classes in school. I’ve said it before but I often wondered how much different my life would be if I wasn’t worried about being completely humiliated by endeavoring on certain projects or revealing more of my home life. But I think I’ve actually done that in Violet and I certainly have in the second book I’m working on Behind the Iron Gates — Insights From an Institution.
 
On reality TV and YouTube as self-care:
I love reality TV. I’m sure I’ve written 100 songs from cues to those shows. Self-care for me is kind of different every day. Sometimes I allow myself to stay in bed late in the morning and just daydream. I love to sit around and talk shit with my closest friends, watch long Target hauls on YouTube. I also like to sit around and read things that I’m interested in, books that involve magic or old books of poems I’ve collected. I have a lot of animals so taking care of them one by one I’m sort of pouring that nurturing spirit out into anything I can.
 
On licking her wounds after a bad day of writing:
I just try and stay super still. I try not to overextend myself and just do little things that keep me inspired, like staying a little bit too long in the parking lot of the Walmart reading a magazine that I just bought, or going a little bit too far out of town to an eccentric book store, or buying a coffee in a town I’ve never been.
 
On celebratory dressing:
I don’t do anything or wear anything to get into the creative process but I find if I’ve written something beautiful, I like to take some time to put on something beautiful for the rest of the day. I always take a hot shower and putting on a dab of perfume and lipstick feels kind of rewarding to me and in line with the process of creating something ethereal.
 
On the snacks that fuel her creativity:
Kombucha, slurpees, spaghetti every night. Coffee in the evening with an old movie playing on one phone in the car and dictating poems with the other phone.
