what an interesting double meaning 

I believe they’re used interchangeably. It’s just a matter of spelling.

baby blue love is the underrated sister of noir  leave her with the rest of those icons

Blue Banisters could be such a cool metaphor. Banisters keep you from falling off the side of a staircase, so they're protection and a sense of security. But blue is referenced quite frequently in Lana's work as sadness (excluding songs like Get Free obviously), so there's a sadness in the security - and since in the lyrics she implies that he DIDN'T come back in May to paint her banisters blue, she doesn't have that security anymore. 

 

Yes, I've reached the point of desperation where I'm making theories on a 30 second snippet. And yes, I'm sure someone else has already thought of this before

have confidence in your desperation!!  i actually had not put together the sense of security and protection that ties into banisters... maybe she's craving security, stability, safety with the banisters, but when she asks him to paint her banisters blue... tinge her life with sadness? or color? it's not black banisters, but blue? tbh i've always had a hard time keeping track of her use of blue/black so i feel a little lost there but there's definitely an interesting tie

[Dark Angel 203,560]

lana writing blue banisters, yet another "blue" song in lana's broading catalog of "blue" songs 

 

[American Whore 51,680]

I miss the pale moonlight days tbh.... like i'm over the candle in the wind Lana sing me a sexy song about being in your red dress and your clown makeup and dropping it like its hot in the pale moonlight again ugh

 

idk, i just went back and listened to Paradise again and tbh... at the time i hated it compared to BTD but now to me it's so brilliantly written and the instrumentals just choke me when i hear them and notice the little things like in American and Cola and Body Electric, ugh. How is this woman human and living in our time? Idk I just need BB to have something really interesting and new and weird and genius again like things from the earlier albums is all. Don't @/ me trying to say "oh don't complain you just told us we shouldn't complain" and i'm not complaining i just want this album to be a return to form where we get absolutely brilliantly written songs again. i like some of the newer stuff but not nearly as much as i do paradise or uv or hm.... like fuck, yall, we really are in the same world as lana del fucking rey and she's really, really becoming an iconic masterpiece of our generation.... i just hope BB is written well that's all i ask... like Body Electric's lyrics, i need that level
