I really am getting Laura Palmer vibes from this song. Laura was always writing in her secret diary about her darkest and innermost thoughts, which is exactly the feeling this song and I think the album in general will be giving, matched beautifully with the album art of Lana looking like a girl from the past full of secrets of her own that will start to spill out as her restlessness gets the best of her.

 

The second part is so fascinating because it's like we rewind back to a place where the version of Lana that's singing doesn't see the darkness that we can see, it is all fun and games for her. She does wanna get high with Jimmy over and over, she does think it's funny when his mom calls, she does just wanna vibe without a thought beyond the repetition of an endless good time. But through the questions asked in the first half of the song and the menacing production that follows, we're able to see an outcome that she doesn't see yet. Even Laura Palmer had fun walking with fire until it was too late 

 

you always make me see her songs from different angles... appreciate you

I said this before and I'll say it again, I think this record is reaching into those dark places a lot of us have wanted Lana to go towards again and that typically turns out to be some of her best work. It's shaping up to be an unmeant follow up to UV and I'm so fucking here for it. Idc if it doesn't turn out to be in that style of rock sounds i just want that style of writing from Lana again. Honeymoon saw a direction of her lyrics straying from that dark style, more light and fun, with some dark lyrics like The Blackest Day and then ever since LFL, it seems like she's had small tinges of darkness, but it's more far and few between. If this album turns out totally different from what I'm thinking but it still has the level of writing that Hope had or A&W or TUOB has, I'd be content and happy with that. Her lyrical structure thus far from this album seems a step up from things like Love Song or Dance Till We Die or Beautiful or Violets for Roses. Don't get me wrong, I like those tracks and they're fine, but I want that rich, poetic lyricist back and I think we're getting it again  

 

Remember Get Free she said out of the black into the blue? I like to think of it like this (your opinion may differ):

 

AKA - black

BTD - blue

UV - black

HM - blue

LFL - blue

NFR - blue

COCC - black 

BB - blue with grey tinges

DYCKTATTOO - black

I LOVE the Twin Peaks comparison.  The song does feel very Lynchian, especially the transition to the second half

lana’s videos are iconic and unique what are you talking about? I still watch them. 

 

not to say that the videos are bad or shouldn't be made, i'm just saying, i don't think they're necessary in 2023 like they were when artists didn't have social media. it's not 2004 anymore

She probably saw some weird stan twitter comments 

But yeah without any context is seems a bigger deal than it probably is

I honestly think sweet will surprise people because the descriptions of it and lyrics we have seem like it will be good, I think people just took the “love song” of the album too seriously  I don’t think it will actually sound like love song, but rather just be a more heartfelt lowkey moment 

 

margaret is destined to be forgotten sadly so it better be GOOD

[Fingertips 72,053]

 

We've only got hours
And I just can't stop crying
Cause all of the ways
When you see someone dying
The sea of your daze flashing in front of you
And you think about who will be with you

Daddy, I miss them
I'm in the mountains
I'm probably running away from the feelings I hid
When I think of the things about them

 

Brought by the sunlight of the spirit to pour into me

There's a name for it in Japanese
It's Kintsugi

 

I give myself two seconds to cry
Let it crash over me like the waves in the sea

I give myself two seconds to breathe
Go back to being a serene queen

I have faith in them   Like you said earlier, Margaret is too long to be bad, and also Sweet I think will be a necessary breather between two heavier songs
