Put your white tennis shoes on and follow me
Why work so hard when you could just be free?
You got your moment now, you got your legacy
Let's leave the world for the ones who change everything
 
Nothing could stop
The two of us
Let's just get lost,
That's what we want

And I will never sing again
And you won't work another day
I will never sing again
With just one wave it goes away
It will be our swan song
It will be our swan song
Be our swan song
It will be our swan song

Dive in, dive deep and dive blue, my sweet
Rushing up from the water where the ice meets
And you've been gone so long, you missed everything
The world can change in a day if you go away
 
But nothing could stop
The two of us
If that's what we want
We could just get lost

And I will never sing again
And you won't work another day
I will never sing again
With just one wave it goes away
It will be our swan song
It will be our swan song
Be our swan song
It will be our swan song

Do you like?
Do you like, where you've been,
And where you're going to? (going to)
Say good night
Say good night to the life in the world you knew
I'm gonna follow you

And I will never sing again
And you won't work another day
And I will never sing again
You won't work another day
It will be our swan song
It will be our swan song
Be our swan song
Be our swan song

Put your white tennis shoes on and follow me
Put your white tennis shoes on and follow me
Put your white tennis shoes on and follow me
Why you work so hard when you could just be free

He used to call me DN
It stood for deadly nightshade
Cause I was filled with poison
But blessed with beauty and rage
Jim told me that he hit me and it felt like a kiss
Jim brought me back
Reminded me of when we were kids
 
[Chorus]
With his ultraviolence
Ultraviolence
Ultraviolence
Ultraviolence
I can hear sirens, sirens
He hit me and it felt like a kiss
I can hear violins, violins
Give me all of that ultraviolence
 
He used to call me poison
Cause I was poison ivy
I could have died right there
Cause Jim was right beside me
Jim raised me up
He hurt me but it felt like true love
Jim taught me that
Loving him was never enough
 
With his ultraviolence
Ultraviolence
Ultraviolence
Ultraviolence
I can hear sirens, sirens
He hit me and it felt like a kiss
I can hear violins, violins
Give me all of that ultraviolence
 
We can go back to New York
Cause loving you was really hard
We can go back to Woodstock
Where they don't know who we are
Heaven is on earth
I would do anything for you, babe
Blessed is this union
Crying tears of gold, like lemonade
 
[spoken]
I love you the first time
I love you the last time
Yo soy la princesa, comprende mis white lines
Cause I'm your jazz singer
And you're my cult leader
I love you forever
I really love you forever
 
With his ultraviolence
Ultraviolence
Ultraviolence
Ultraviolence
I can hear sirens, sirens
He hit me and it felt like a kiss
I can hear violins, violins
Give me all of that ultraviolence.

inb4 a 30 metacritic score !!

how the hell is $18 overpriced for an album
 
it's pretty much standard price 
 
wth were you people expecting, $10 or something?

Either support Lana or stop whining tbh, $18 for an album is cheap

Good for her.
I love Lana and Kanye, so it's nice.
Indifferent towards Kim.

Not here for a new Kill Kill. I love the original. Maybe someday she re-works up AKA completly, but that can wait. I am here for new songs and not the ones I already know and love.

I actually didn't like spring breakers, there was something about tbh 

she has barely worn shoes on this tour so far. i love it

Went a different direction with this, but I really like how it turned out. Really inspired by ~vintage photography~ and Neil Krug's work.
 

 
clickthrough to tumblr

If you wanted titles like "Rainbow Road" or "Happy Girl" go and change your fucking fandom

BTD has 12 songs.
 
So I don't see what the problem is.
 
Paradise has even fewer.

I accept that critics that try to understand an artist make their point even that's a negative one. But in Lana's case 75% of the articles are premeditated misogynistic shades written by people who put aside their artistic sensibility because they just cannot except that a beautiful and talented girl can succeed in the music business in her own peculiar way. What was shocking for the indie and for the pop elite is the fact that this girl is becoming very popular with songs that shouldn't be that popular, with a stage presence that doesn't share anything with the accustomed stage gimmicks. She's standing out and that's why she's a target for everyone in the music business. Slowly the real artists are starting to acknowledge her talent: Moroder, Auerbach, Calvin H., C. Cobain, Cyrus, S. Twain etc. are saying nice things about her songs...because they are beautiful, gorgeous. These are words that she likes and is derided by many even by some of her fans, But don't forget something cynicism is just the beginning of an intelligent life and by no means the end of it. Lana is not a cynic, she's above that, she believes in beautiful things and in romance that's why I love her and her music. I pray for her to be strong

How do you say 'slé'?

 
 
No but seriously, judging by my mediocre french skills, this seems to be a song title indeed. It gives me NA and HDB vibes, but I'm not quite sure how she's going to 'translate' these kind of songs into the supposed Ultraviolence sound. Anyway, I'm excited

Lana please release some new info so that people have something to talk about and can stop acting like rude assholes

BDSM is not fetishizing abuse? It's done between two (or more I guess) consenting parties whereas abuse is forced upon the victim. There are other differences too, but at the end of the day they are completely different!
 
ANYWAY, regardless of what her photoshoots are for I'm SO excited to be getting new photos of her! The Ultraviolence era is really coming into full swing!

Your post is far more triggering to any member on LanaBoards who has been in an abusive relationship than that godforsaken lyric is, myself included. And THIS POST is what's disgusting me. Are you fucking serious?
 
I am not even going to bother.

How can anyone tell what it sounds like??? Its 10 seconds of live muffled music.

i dont think she'll re-release her unreleased songs and put them on UV, nor do I want her to. I want to hear fresh material. idk. 

This is an amazingly baseless overreaction

She doesn't have to completely change key things about herself, like her image and what inspires her, to have moved forward sonically with the new album. I think the pictures are quite naturally gorgeous and support the "stripped down yet beautiful" description she gave her new music.

Dear John, release to us a single.
Dear John, release to us a single.
Dear John, release to us a single...

I think she will continue the sound from Paradise but build on it and sing more about mature themes
 
idk Paradise is my favourite officially released thing so far so I would love that

I would weep.
 
As a new fan, am I in the minority here of people who prefer BTD over AKA and P?

how are you guys hearing lyrics i can't hear anything?? 
 
Edit: NVRM , see caption *duh*
 
 
All I can think of is "California..knows how to party" and we know Lana loves Tupac+ party themes~ hew knoS
