evilentity 13,345 Posted September 13, 2012 I won't cry myself to sleep like a sucker I won't cry myself to sleep If I do I'll die Now you fall asleep with another Damn you Remember how we used to escape for the summer Fireworks and sparklers would light up the black skies We'd hold on tight for our lives to each other Hello, hello, where did you go? We were two kids living life on the run Like the american dream Baby, nothing to lose And we get messed up for fun We went too fast, too young But I won't cry myself to sleep like a sucker I won't cry myself to sleep If I do I'll die Now you fall asleep with another Damn you Damn you Flowers in my hair and your breath smelled like whiskey Promised anywhere that I go, take you with me Dancing on your feet like a child to the radio Hello, hello, where did you go? We were two kids living life on the run Of the american dream Baby, nothing to lose And we get messed up for fun We went too fast, too young But I won't cry myself to sleep like a sucker I won't cry myself to sleep If I do I'll die Now you fall asleep with another Damn you Damn you Damn you Damn you Every once in a lifetime Dreams can come true Now and then when the stars shine You meet somebody like you And I won't cry myself to sleep like a sucker I won't cry myself to sleep If I do I'll die I pray your life is sweet, you fucker Damn you Oh, oh Damn you Damn you 7 Quote Stalking you has sorta become like my occupation.

teethclick 898 Posted September 13, 2012 But isn't it "I pray you'll never sleep you fuck up (or fucker)"? It makes more sense imo. 0 Quote last.fm Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bender B. Rodriguez 16 Posted September 13, 2012 But isn't it "I pray you'll never sleep you fuck up (or fucker)"? It makes more sense imo. I'm pretty sure it's "I pray your life is sweet, you fucker" 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
teethclick 898 Posted September 13, 2012 I'm pretty sure it's "I pray your life is sweet, you fucker" Sounds like she's singing "you'll" tho, if you listen closely. 0 Quote last.fm Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Chloe Posted September 15, 2012 Listen to it like 10 seconds before the end, turn up your volume really loud, and Lana says 'oh my god'.. at least I think! 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SugarVenom 464 Posted September 30, 2012 is it confirmed by anyone, writers, producers, etc? 0 Quote one time, lana del rey told me that I made her day~ it was awesome Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Madrigal 2,616 Posted September 30, 2012 is it confirmed by anyone, writers, producers, etc? CG, one of the admins on LDR.FM, told us it was produced by Chris, and Lana herself, in May of 2011, wrote on FaceBook about doing "Hollywood's Dead" with him. So...kinda. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hello Heaven 1,578 Posted March 7, 2013 I seriously hate it at the end when she sniffs and says "Oh my god." Im like Aw, baby doll is crying!! :'( fucking cunt who made her cry... There's something about it that's really unsettling, like it wasn't planned. I like it though, it leaves me feeling cold at the end. I really like the song though, grows on me everytime I hear it. I just don't like the beginning bit because it's really loud compared to the audio on my other Lana songs and it just annoys me idk why. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
trailerparkdarling- 86 Posted March 7, 2013 I always thought it was 'I pray your life is sweet, you fucker', but I could be wrong. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Monicker 3,035 Posted March 8, 2013 Weird, i don't get that feeling at all from the "oh my god." To me, it has a cute, sweet, and almost mischievous quality to it, as if she's about to start laughing nervously. I wonder what was going on that caused her to say that. Maybe she snuck a boyfriend into the studio and, right as she was finishing the vocal, he knocked his coffee cup into a grand piano, or like, dropped a $7,000 microphone that he wasn't supposed to even be touching 0 Quote "The limits of my language mean the limits of my world." -Wittgenstein Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
