I've been thinking about this a lot since I started listening to the EP. To me, Paradise resonates as something beautiful and joyous and while Lana obviously creates beautiful music, I wouldn't describe it as happy. Anyway, while listening to American something clicked with me in a really big way. She got to the Springsteen line and I noticed something. Having grown up listening to/loving Springsteen I'm not sure why I didn't get it before but our boy Bruce has a song called Paradise. I flicked over to it immediately and remembered remembered how melancholy/somber it is and how it's not talking about paradise in the conventional sense.
 

 
Edit: I meant to link the video in the OP, sorry.
 
A possible reference/tribute from Lana?
 
Also take into account the album it comes from, The Rising is a reflection on 9/11.
