i hear "how this deep/sweet normality.."

[HydroponicWeeds 11,431]

This is really interesting bc now that i've thought about it, this song actually resonates with NFR in a lot of ways. Let's go back and think about who Norman fuckin Rockwell was anyway. He was an older painter who painted the time period of the American Dream. Lana's NFR character was a man who wanted the American Dream, but never could reach it-- his version was never attainable. Like in TNBAR. COCC is Lana's American Dream and she doesn't care what she has to do to get there-- she's saying this is what their life could be if he just let her, just like LMLYLAW-- Let me be the woman I want to be to you, let me love you like I think I should and want to in my mind of this american dream, fragile, but forceful all the while. Let me be your American Dream, just like National Anthem back on BTD, "blurring the lines between real and fake"

Okay can someone explain what exactly is the country club in American culture and what is it's significance in Lana's song? I feel like I'm missing a lot of context here.

as someone whos never been to a country club because my family could never have afforded to be part of one ive always thought of them as stuffy places for boring rich people. but lanas speaking from a different point of view and i think she sees the country club as someplace safe and familiar and really nostalgic, like what i feel about the public pool lol

So... Just speculation but I guess this track is partially about Sean since:

 

1. It mentions the month he was born 

2. This song was probably made or written when they both started to date (basing myself on Clampigirl's COCC timeline)

3. This is up for interpretation but the song is to me kind of romantic

I think it’s “late night TV, I want you only”!

Aw, of course! <3 @recklessdaughter mentioned that the lyric links to Breaking Up Slowly where she says “I love you only and it’s making me blue” so I feel like that makes a lot of sense! 

[saith 224]

The official video on youtube has the lyrics as subtitles and it says :

It's beautiful, (I'll escape)

 

Aren't those lyrics entered by her team ? Tough I don't understand the use of parentheses. Maybe the person who entered them wasn't sure.

It personnally think that it does make more sense with what the song's about than LSD.

 

I didn't bother comparing the other lyrics with what we have here.

I'll escape > LSD

"Washing my hair, doing the laundry
Late night TV, I want you on me
Like when we were kids under chemtrails and country clubs
It's never too late, baby, so don't give up
It's never too late, baby, so don't give up
Under the chemtrails over the country club, yeah (You're born in December and I'm born in June)"

 

Barrie was born in December, I'm aware cop boy was too but c'mon she can't still be singing about that douche. I guess Clay just doesn't make the cut.

I'm aware she has made a lot of songs about Barrie but since this song was probably recorded in the periodt where she was dating the cop, probably these lines are about him. Plus, it's been 6 years since she splited with Barrie (although that doesn't mean anything but js)

I know it's been an on off topic on here about Lana wanting kids, and honestly the lyrics on COCC seem really personal and seemingly about Sean. Lyrics like "kids' swimming pools / coffee at the elementary schools" I'm guessing she's talking about spending time with Sean's kids (or any of the children of her friends because his kids are like in their 20s now lol). it makes me sad for her  

[Miss Doing Nothing 758]

Could the “You’re born in December and I’m born in June.” line be about Jesus? 
 

Also the “You’re in the wind, I’m in the water.” We’re made from water, God is in the air.
