CarcrashBandicoot 760 Posted May 9, 2015 We both know the history of violence that surrounds you But I'm not scared, there's nothing to lose now that I've found you We could cruise to the news Pico Boulevard in you used little bullet car if we choose Mr. Born to lose Mr. Born to lose? As in, born to lose your life, aka born to die. Jimmy teasssss The history of violence that surrounds you? He hit me and it felt like a kiss... I'm kind of kidding but then I'm kind of not, it sounds like it's about Jimmy again, "Mr. Born to lose" and the violence part. Please, don't try to tell me this will be vaguely about alcohol again because I'm pretty sure "Jimmy pulls up in his blue Chevy Nova" and this allude to each other and so does UV... so uh... When does a bottle of Jim Bean drive a blue Chevy Nova? Hmmm? HMMMM? lmao I know it's a stretch, but fuck it, I don't care. Can we get sources for this? Like a picture or something? 5 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Trash Magic 28,435 Posted May 9, 2015 low-key hoping there wouldn't be a title track for Honeymoon. Ultraviolence too I can never imagine how songs will sound from reading the lyrics so i'm just gonna forget I read this until the song is actually out. It's exciting though i'm sure new music is much closer than we really thought 2 Quote "It's 2011, and we should all be aware of exactly how fast technology is developing" - Lana Del Rey Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Wild One 3,306 Posted May 9, 2015 The chorus reminds me too much of Ultraviolence 4 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

NamiraWilhelm 5,050 Posted May 9, 2015 You should be getting better with time Lana! You're capable of great poetry and yet there's this decline... if the inspiration's not there don't force it >.< 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sebastian 327 Posted May 9, 2015 This song is obviously about Lana and Francesco. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
VioletPrincess 962 Posted May 9, 2015 Based off the lyrics, I imagine it to sound like a happier VG- somewhat slow and with twinkling harp every now and again. But we shall see . . . 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
YUNGATA 14,955 Posted May 9, 2015 a lil 8th grade english class but i'll try and reserve judgement till it actually comes out. 5 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ilovetati 15,299 Posted May 9, 2015 Love the verses and bridge, but not feeling the chorus at all. The repitition worked for UV because of the hypnotic torch song feel. 4 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Honeybear 2,047 Posted May 9, 2015 I have rather mixed feelings, but usually a lot of lyrics don't sound well when read but do when sang That's my hope 7 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Platinum Greenwich 13,852 Posted May 9, 2015 oh, i like this! i mean yes the chorus is basic but evidently the uv curse is here to stay and i'm sure she'll turn it out in the actual like song lol 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

GodBlessMe 2,141 Posted May 9, 2015 Tbh I don't mind the repetitive choruses but I just hate it when she named rooms different cities, streets and cars. 0 Quote I AM MY ONLY GOD Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PinkVelvet 382 Posted May 9, 2015 i don't love these lyrics but i don't care because if just the lyrics to Ride had been posted before the song, i would've thought poorly of them... but the song is absolutely perfect. it's never good to read lyrics like they're a poem. you're getting 1/3 of what's really going on. 5 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
