When I first heard it, I thought it was simply about love. Now, I think it's her reflecting on her own mortality and the life she's lived.

I like both versions of Black Beauty but I feel like there should have been a middle ground between the simplistic demo and the overproduced final product.

It was in one of the threads about her old private Facebook. They had a bunch of screenshots and she mentioned AG in one or two of them. They really are extremely creepy. (They'd have "Young People's" meetings where the young girls would be coerced into having sex with one of the older guys, and that occurred in multiple spin-offs of the Atlantic Group and Pacific Group.)

Meh. While I'm not particularly okay with searching through a person's private life, it's not any more or less personal than revealing it through music and interviews.

This one. I think it was this one anyway. And you can find a lot of less-than-positive stories about the Atlantic and Pacific Groups on a few websites, like Orange Papers.

It was discovered on this website that Lana del Rey was a member of a group called the Atlantic Group (a part of Alcoholics Anonymous) in her past. The Atlantic Group is infamous for its cult behavior and for its treatment of young female members. I think it's obvious it's about them, especially given the reference to deadly nightshade, also known as A. belladonna which was used as a treatment for alcoholism. In fact, several of her songs reference AA or AA's ideas.
