Three white butterflies to know youre near

 

I know that they think that it took somebody else to make me beautiful, Beautiful

As they intended me to be

But they’re wrong

 

I know that they guess

That it took thousands of people to put me together again

like an experiment

Like some big man behind the scenes so im ????

 

But they’re wrong

 

God if youre near me send me three white butterflies or an owl to know your listening

Sitting while im drinking

 

Grandfather please stand on the shoulders of my father while hes deep sea fishing

 

On the shores of the pacific

I know they think that it took somebody else to make me beautiful, beautiful

As they intended me to be

But they’re wrong

 

I know they think

That it took thousands of people to put me together again

Like an experiment

Some big man behind the scenes

? Frankenstein black dreams into my songs

But they’re wrong

 

God if you're near me, send me three white butterflies

Or an owl to know you're listening

Sitting while I'm drinking

Grandfather please stand on the shoulders of my father

While he's deep-sea fishing

For sharks in the pacific

Cause oh God, ?
?
I'm folk I'm jazz I'm blue I'm green
Regrettably also a white woman
But I have good intentions
Even if I'm one of the last ones
If you don't believe me
My poetry, and my melodies
Feel it in your bones
I have good intentions
Even if i'm one of the last ones

 

Grandfather please stand on the shoulders of my father
While he's deep-sea fishing
For all the things he's wishing
God if you're near me, send me three white butterflies
Or a map to know you're fishing
?

 

It took somebody else
To make me beautiful
Wonderful
As they intended me to be
But they're wrong

 

Three white butterflies to know you're near

 

Thank you so much to you both!!

The lyrics at first glance look beautiful, not what I expected from the title. I’m excited to listen!

 some people found the obituary of an Aaron Greene of Lake Placid who died in a car crash, Lana was around 20 years old at the time (I believe)

I'm unsure what his actual relation to Lana was however..friend, boyfriend, acquaintance ? 

 

Spoiler

i have a whole story in my head just from those few lines… that’s just how powerful the song is 😭 like every single lyric brings so many narratives and themes in my mind 

 

when i hear the part about aaron green i imagine lana as a young girl who just wants to have fun, go out, enjoy simple things (like making drinks for guys in a bar for a summer job type of thing, idk) and hang with guys (ride monologue reference…). she has this crush on aaron and her mom, conservative and annoying, just keeps her away from all this freedom, perhaps insinuating how she will die young if she keeps chasing a certain lifestyle. then it turns out that this guy actually dies, which makes the whole thing even more painful, while her mother doesn’t really care about the emotional impact of this. she only uses this as a “told you so” kind of moment to prove her point that she will just end up in institutions if she keeps getting attached to guys like him etc.

 

this is just one of the interpretations that come to my mind of course, i’m not saying this is how things went. but i also have a difficult relationship with my parents so i imagine lana might have had to deal with her mom’s insensitivity towards her in a similar way perhaps 

 

hopefully for her there was not THIS MUCH drama, cause that really sucks…… but again, the way she references their relationship always sounds very tense so…

She did mention it in her interview mag! So *technically* not a spoiler!

Spoke to a few friends that work at independent record stores and they’ve told me the record label could purposely send out the album/vinyl a day before official release to avoid leaks.. It’s apparently all in control of the label and when they dispatch to stores 

I’ve been saying this for weeks now. If the album leaks tomorrow it will not be because of stores. Stores not getting the memo will not get them the album earlier.

sry in advance 4 being that person who dumps kind of unprovoked & ill probably delete this later anyway

but

my puppy recently got diagnosed with a heart problem that prevents her from getting enough oxygen to her brain at times so she'll just like collapse now sometimes when out on walks etc., we will likely be putting her down in a couple weeks time (max)  & i know an animal life & a human life aren't exactly comparable but i've had her since i was 9 n picked her out... so nearly 12 years together now ... she's lived in canada & in germany with me, travelled to croatia, italy & austria with me... we have shared so many memories 

it's a shame that we die but all of her sweetness, I'm gonna take that too with me 

by some miracle, these songs came at the perfect time for me<3

At this point, as long as it's listenable and has no stupid watermarks I'd take a cassette rip over this nightmare...

I just find it so weird that they only leaked Side A? Like... 

someone at a vinyl factory was probably given a defective vinyl with only side A on properly. And that’s why the rest are just LQ, snippets or tagged

But don't we have confirmation that some stores already have received the album?

Imagine if Lana hadn't released music since 2019 (Norman) and this was her next album

I think she'd have everyone crazy with everything that's happened in this era, the magazines, A&W, the beautiful title track and cover variants and the boobs picture

Well, some music store in Mexico posted a video of the vinyl with Fingertips playing...
