She's such a lyrical genius, but right now my favorite lyrics of hers are from Love -

 

Look at you kids with your vintage music

Comin' through satellites while cruisin'

You're part of the past, but now you're the future

Signals crossing can get confusing

 

Look at you kids, you know you're the coolest

The world is yours and you can't refuse it

Seen so much, you could get the blues

But that don't mean that you should abuse it

 

Though it's enough just to make you go crazy, crazy, crazy

I know, it's enough just to make you go crazy, crazy, crazy

 

I get ready, I get all dressed up

To go nowhere in particular

It doesn't matter if I'm not enough

For the future or the things to come

'Cause I'm young and in love I'm young and in love

 

Don't worry, baby

Don't worry, baby

Don't worry, baby

 

They're just so comforting to me 

There’s something about the way she sings in this song, like it just gives this amazing energy and positivity idk

I'm still looking for my own version of America
One without the gun, where the flag can freely fly
No bombs in the sky, only fireworks when you and I collide
It's just a dream I had in mind

Lana's "ok" in AW. it resonates a lot when u realize she's been projected onto for so much about how she's supposed to be, etc. it holds a lot 

[Bluelake 2,877]

'Cause we were just that good
It was just that good (fame fame fame fame…) 

[Bluelake 2,877]

The sway of the hips and arms
Will cradle you from afar
They swing 'til you're tired
And send you to Mars
Nighttime is almost ours 

 

“Oh Say Can You See” is so underrated. I could have seen it remastered for Paradise.

Quote

(It's fucking hot, hot) Winter in the city
Somethin' 'bout this weather made these kids go crazy
(It's hot) Even for February
Somethin' 'bout this sun has made these kids get scary
Oh, writin' in blood on my walls and shit
Like, ah, oh my God
Jumpin' off from the walls into the docks and shit
Oh, ho ho ho, I'd be lyin' if I said I wasn't sick of it
Baby (Baby), come on (Come on), come on (Come on)

Heroin is probably my favorite Lana song and I absolutely love the writing on it.

And who I am is a big time believer

That people can change, you don't have to leave her

When everyone's talking you can take a stand.

 

 

Mariners is a legend.

[Make me your Dream Life 87,459]

red is the color of your mouth when you drink rum punch, you like to lie, in yellow sun. 

they judge me like a picture book, by the colors like they forgot to read
you never liked the way I said it, if you don't get it then forget it, cus I don't have to fuckin explain it 

it's like heaven, taking the place of something evil, and lettin it burn off from the rush /
can i get a fuckin hallelujah? 

Life on Mars ain't just a song 

and there's no remedy for memory

Gargoyles standing at the front of your gate, trying to tell me to wait, but I can't wait to see you. 
Grenadine sunshine, can you break, this heart of mine?
walk in the way of my soft resurrection, Idol of roses, iconic soul, I know your name- 
Lead me to war with your brilliant direction 

hope is a dangerous thing for a woman like me to have - but I have it.
as well as the rest of the song 

baby what's your sign? my moon's in Leo, my Cancer is sun/ 
it's beautiful, how this deep, normality settles down over me. i'm not bored or unhappy, i'm still so strange and wild! 
you're in the wind I'm in the water, nobody's son, nobody's daughter 

suburbia, the Brentwood market, what to do next? maybe we'll love it. 

washing my hair, doin the laundry late nite tv, i want you only, like when we were kids under chemtrails in country clubs 
(it's never too late, so baby, don't give up) 

You're born in December and I'm born in June 


I was looking for the father I wanted back, and I thought I found it in Brentwood, it seemed only appropriate you'd easily have my back. 
could we do this dance again? 
do you think if i go blonde we could get our old love back?
i guess this is really the end, I never felt jealous before this year, but I'm jealous now. 

-the chorus, the writing on Textbook's just impeccable.
