Well the interview seems very... weird.

Her male equivalent
 

I actually thought this was a great interview! At this point I don't expect anymore to learn much about her past or anything detailed experiences/events, but there was a bit of both of these things here! And she seems content, not stressed out or upset at anything.
 
I'm just rooting for her and any signs she's motivated to keep making and performing music make me happy. 

I've translated it via Google and corrected it:
 
 

i thought that's what she said 

"baby put on odd shaped sunglasses"

"Leathers mean, and love hurts." - blue jeans 
 
I thought it was cause men in leather jackets were stereotyped as heart breakers or "bad boys" or whatever...so leather was mean....
     

dare i say it...... "i love casinos, and neon reservations"

My coaster still smells like you....

"In her kinky, mom pant ass." 

Misheard Lana Lyrics

 

Here is where we can post lyrics that we've misheard in Lana's songs.

Be sure to post the real lyric, too.

I'll start:

 

In Diet Mountain Dew it says:

"There in his white Pontiac Heaven"

I thought it said:

"Ridin' his white pony named Kevin"

 

I know, embarrassing 

Can't wait to read some of yours!

Are you gonna hurt me now?
Or are you gonna hurt me later?
Are you gonna go to town?
Maybe you should play it safer
 
You've got me all dressed up tonight
Springsteen on the radio
You've got me all freaked out tonight
Somethin' you're tellin' me- what? I don't know
 
You don't wanna break me down
You don't wanna say goodbye and
You don't wanna turn around
You don't wanna make me cry but
You caught me once
​Maybe on the flipside I could catch you again
You caught me once
​Maybe on the flipside you could catch me again
 
Drinks on the patio
 
Are you gonna tell me now?
Are you gonna tell me later?
'Cause if you think that I don't know
I'm gonna have to say you're crazy
 
I'm getting all dressed up tonight
Dressed up just to hear you, boy
I already know what you got in store
Why I go, baby, I don't know
 
'Cause you don't wanna break me down
You don't wanna say goodbye and
You don't wanna turn around
You don't wanna make me cry but
You caught me once
​Maybe on the flipside I could catch you again
You caught me once
​Maybe on the flipside I could catch me again
 
So you think you're in charge?
Do you?
Actin' like a big shot
I'm sure
So you think you're in charge?
Do you?
You're actin' like a big shot
 
You don't wanna break me down
You don't wanna say goodbye and
You don't wanna turn around
You don't wanna make me cry but
You caught me once
​Maybe on the flipside I could catch you again
You caught me once
​Maybe on the flipside you could catch me again

Anthem of our Generation//Living the American Dream

Blue hydrangea, cold cash divine
Cashmere cologne, and white sunshine
Red racing cars, Sunset and Vine
The kids were young and pretty
 
Where have you been, where did you go
Those summer nights seem long ago
And so is the girl, you used to call
"The Queen of New York City"
 
But if you send for me, you know I'll come
And if you call for me, you know I'll run
I'll run to you, I'll run to you
I'll run run run
I'll come to you, I'll come to you
I'll come come come
 
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh...
Aah, aah, aahh....
 
The power of youth, is on my mind
Sunset, small town
I'm out of time
Will you still love me when I shine
From words but not from beauty
 
My father's love was always strong
My mother's glamour lives on and on
Yet still inside I felt alone
For reasons unknown to me
 
But if you send for me, you know I'll come
And if you call for me, you know I'll run
I'll run to you, I'll run to you
I'll run run run
I'll come to you, I'll come to you
I'll come come come
 
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh...
Aah, aah-ah-ah-ahh..
 
And if you call, I'll run run run
If you change your mind, I'll come come come
 
Ooh, ooh, ooh...
Aah, aah-ah-ah-ahh..
 
Blue hydrangea, cold cash divine
Cashmere cologne, and white sunshine
Red racing cars, Sunset and Vine
And we were young and pretty

God bless this fucking song

Barrie helpin to write a song about Barrie

I think this is her very essence: equal parts art and science. I think LDR as a persona/identity is meant to be someone who lives poetically, driven only by emotion and whims, makes her 'life an art', etc.
 
But the reality is she would not be where she is if she were just a wide-eyed innocent, dreaming about life from her window sill all day, or being led around by boys. Lizzy Grant is the shadow master and commander of the LDR concept; she dreams big but she is also a doer, the ruler of her own destiny. (Her critics who think she has no agency need to wake up —  who in pop music right now has more control of their own vision than her ?)   She is very calculating, knowing, and aware of how to give form to her dreams. It surely all starts with intuition and artistic intention and emotion, but then Science Lizzy kicks in — the one who researches, studies, analyzes, experiments w/ a hypothesis, puts in art in action. A good creative director is always equally artistic and scientific, and Lizzy herself has hinted at this in interviews. 
 
I also think someone like this is naturally driven to explore esoteric and marginalized philosophy/psychology/cultural topics; I'm sure she's even aware of Crowley, Theosophy, and the like. Not sure if I buy she was in 'a cult', but the chronology specifics don't matter so much, the essence of how it shaped her does. What's exciting is that she can bring these super niche topics into the warmth of the spotlight, even if she has to paint broad strokes to do so. I honestly can't think of someone else so widely known and loved that is able to pull this off in the 21st century. Maybe Grimes, but with her, it's literally the Wiki-meets-Tumblr remix version of everything. Young artists everywhere should be inspired that women like Lizzy are finding ways to make the outre and strange palatable.

i dont think we have the right to automatically discredit this as an exaggeration or a lie..its very possible it could have happened it fits into her songs and it fits with her dependency and broken mind   it only takes a week to join a cult/sect .. she never said how long she was involved it could have been a short period of time also did she ever give a location this could have coexisted with any lanalysis we have so far... if we assume she doesn't involve her boyfriends in everything.....
 
also why is she leaking this info now?. possibly yes the give clues and meaning to lyrics like "cult leader" its relevant to the album that doesn't mean its a lie or all for publicity but also to keep the story going to give more pieces of her life ... 
 
WE DISCREDIT WHAT WE DONT UNDERSTAND 

haha you're very astute. I think this is also a case of her over obsessing about authenticity.. like sometimes she acts like she doesn't care and sometimes she builds these back stories or ..whatever to make her lyrics personal/ have a deeper meaning.  She's the strangest person I've ever not known lol
