Embach

The entirety of Ocean Blvd is a lyrical masterpiece from beginning to end 

Finally
Gone is the burden of the Crowley way of being
That comes from energies combined
Like my part was I
Was not discerning
And you, as we found out
Were not in your right mind
There's no more chasing rainbows and hoping for an end to them
Their arches are illusions, solid at first glance
But then you try to touch them (touch, touch)
There's nothing to hold on to (hold, hold)
The colors used to lure you in (shut up, shut up)
And put you in a trance (ah, ah, ah, yeah)
 

Finally, I'm crossing the threshold
From the ordinary world to the reveal of my heart
Undoubtedly, that will for certain
Take the dead out of the sea and the darkness from the arts
 
There's no more chasing rainbows and hoping for an end to them
Their arches are illusions, solid at first glance
But then you try to touch them 
There's nothing to hold on to 
The colors used to lure you in 
And put you in a trance 
 
edit: i did not see the comment above me LOL but get free is truly one of lana's best written songs, up there with kintsugi and fingertips

We just quoted the same ❤️

Spilling my guts with the Bowery Bums
Is the only love I've ever known
Except for the stage, which I also call home, when I'm not
Servin' up God in a burnt coffee pot for the triad
Hello, it's the most famous woman you know on the iPad
Calling from beyond the grave, I just wanna say, "Hi, Dad"

There are violets in your eyes
There are guns that blaze around you
There are roses in between my thighs
And a fire that surrounds you
It's no wonder every man in town
Had neither fought nor found you
Everything you do is elusive
To even your honey dew
 
the imagery and the fact that it perfectly introduces the theme of honeymoon … breathtaking everytime

I’m trying to think of some lines to contribute with but there are too many good ones.

It took thirteen beaches to find one empty
But finally, I'm fine
Past Ventura and lenses plenty
In the white sunshine
But you still can find me, if you ask nicely
Underneath the pines
With the daisies, feelin' hazy
In the ballroom of my mind
Across the county line

Put your white tennis shoes on and follow me
Why work so hard when you could just be free?
You got your money now, you got your legacy
Let's leave the world for the ones who change everything
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

Boom like that
Boom like that
Boom like that
Boom like that
Boom like that
Boom like that
Boom like that, that, that, that
Boom like that
Boom like that
Boom like that, that, that, that
 

I'll post the articles here tomorrow! Maybe it's interesting, because if does mention Ave Maria (that choir song) as one of the songs that the choir kids sang 

Omg I'm digging more in archives (still sleuthing sorry) and I found out that our Lizzy got a High Honor from her school when she was in 8th grade. Couldn't be more proud of her 

I wish her well

Naur yall already got one (the scandalous book which I believe had false claims and was AI generated? Idk maybe I'm wrong, the one which was promoted around this Spring as much as I remember from my lurking days)
 
I'm just dealing w a pseudoproblem - trying to find every new Lizzy/early Lana crumb possible from digital American/New York newspaper archives.

I just found a article from 2006 where Caroline Grant was Lake Placid High School senior and there was mentioned this same "Lake Placid Women's Ensemble" (which Caroline was member of) as the one from 2000 where was Elizabeth Grant mentioned as a member. It's just weird that possible Chuck and Lana were mentioned in the same context different years, just saying. But if I'm going too far and some of you are starting to find this strange then I'll just quit, I am actually kinda going too far now, I'll just stop sleuthing for now 

You also take pictures and you gave me one
Of a nun who was playing the drums
She was crazy, her name was Katie
I think you're so fun

 

Just catching up your discussion I need y'all to remember that Lies is about Theo from Hurts, not Burns about whom is I'm a Ruin and Blue. And Marina's post-ADIAML wish to re-record her old stuff might be due to her lack of creative progress, which I hope will get better now that she's on a self-recovery journey (better late than never IG).

The rumbling from distant shores sends me to sleep
But, the facts of life can sometimes make it hard to dream

I can't stop associating this picture with @lustforlife 

speaking about it
 

6 minutes of Kintsugi lol
 

same... this song is really powerful
Me and God we don't get along so now I sing /
God's dead I said baby that's alright with me
 It's innocence lost 
 
Edit: also the lyrics 'No one's gonna take my soul away' are very simple but it hits me every time  I have a feeling this song is about SA but idk if you get it you get it

You named your babe Lilac Heaven, after your iPhone 11. “Crypto forever” screams your stupid boyfriend, fuck you Kevin I'm a dragon, you’re a whore Do you know what I had to do to get here man? No you don't, 'cause you're not a gangsta (don't fuck with me) It ain't rock, but you done rolled I like the way that you move the stick and every way when you make it sick Sometimes I rap too, I'm a white girl, but / The world is my oyster, I'm a little pearl, yep Baby you're so ghetto, you're looking to score
