HEARTCORE 18,971 Posted June 4, 2014 i like the chorus because she sings 'I can hear sirens sirens', but then 'I can hear violins violins'. it kinda matches the 'he hit me and felt like a kiss'; sirens symbolise danger and violence, whilst violins suggest romance. she hears the warning signs about how wrong he is, but her mind romanticises the violence and turns it into something affectionate. it's so fucking dark, I'm starting to understand why she called this record 'unlistenable'. 7 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

HEARTCORE 18,971 Posted June 5, 2014 at the beginning, I keep thinking she's gonna sing 'he don't like no small things' from BLM for some reason 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Wryta Thinkpiece 3,345 Posted June 5, 2014 In the bridge: Blessed is this union, She says it "bless-ed," which I do hear frequently, it all depends on where you are. I love when she plays with pronunciation, it's so fucking cute. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

microgrooove 281 Posted June 5, 2014 I think the muffled line she says in the background of the last chorus is 'hit me down tonight' or something similar.... 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kommando 3,264 Posted June 5, 2014 Also, it's a long shot but can anyone decipher what she's mumbling in the background of the last chorus? At some point i hear like "he'll be down tonight"???? Not very clearly tho almost 100% wrong lol I think it's more like "Take me down tonight" and then I dunno, she moans a lot too 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
evilentity 13,348 Posted June 5, 2014 After listening on my @@Monicker-recommended headphones I endorse the following lyrics: Also, it probably is comprende mis white lines. Blessed is this union. Crying tears of gold like lemonade, is what I hear for sure. I hear, "we could go back to woodstock" tbh Gonna party like it's 1969 ~~ Though I'm not completely sure she says "like" before lemonade. (Lol, sometimes I think I hear "pink lemonade".) Also, I think she says something other than "this is" before the first "ultraviolence" in the choruses. "If it's"? "With this"? Probably "With his" actually. 1 Quote Stalking you has sorta become like my occupation. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jiggy 1,024 Posted June 5, 2014 I hear that too tbh Also, it's a long shot but can anyone decipher what she's mumbling in the background of the last chorus? At some point i hear like "he'll be down tonight"???? Not very clearly tho almost 100% wrong lol I hear "Let me into your heart"? I hear, "we could go back to woodstock" tbh Gonna party like it's 1969 ~~ I think she says "we could go back to the start" because the next line is "where they don't know who we are" 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gangster Bitch 69 Posted June 5, 2014 does anyone else hear "we could go back to who we are" instead of new york ? (does she really say newyawk ?) the "we can go back to the start" makes sense even though i hear a 'ark' sound as well, cause yeah the next line is "where they don't know who we are" 1 Quote I can't center this this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Atom Heart 1,931 Posted June 5, 2014 does anyone else hear "we could go back to who we are" instead of new york ? (does she really say newyawk ?) the "we can go back to the start" makes sense even though i hear a 'ark' sound as well, cause yeah the next line is "where they don't know who we are" We could go back to New York - that's the lyric. She just expanded the work York to blend into the next word. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
radiodasirius 637 Posted June 5, 2014 As the man's name in this song is Jim, I think that this song is also a direct reference to the doomed lovers trapped in an abusive relationship in Lou Reed's 'Berlin' album. She did mention Lou Reed in Brooklyn Baby 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
