annedauphine 35,948 Posted September 15, 2015 Thank you so much! Could you please post the link to the Spiegel interview again? This one doesn't work for me. It doesn't need to be a translation either, I speak German I would love to hear / read more about this! Please feel free to show me these interviews To me, these kind of opulent, yet naive Catholic phrases and imagery she uses in her songs always appealed strongly to me, I love Lana especially for that! And I am an Atheist No worries babe, my pleasure! Unfortunately it's the only link I have BUT I checked it no later than yesterday and it was perfectly working so I hope it's just a temporary bug. I'm sending you both my masterposts by PM, I have an audio and a video ones I agree, and personally it's one of the things I love the most because I'm super Catholic and I extremely relate and I use religion constantly in my work as I'm an art student. 3 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Indie 25 Posted September 15, 2015 The first verse is the most flaw free thing I've ever witnessed Definitely my favorite lyrics on the album 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

rivieragirl 143 Posted September 17, 2015 I thought she was singing 'Light of my life' and now I can't hear it as 'Light up my life' 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

annedauphine 35,948 Posted September 19, 2015 I would pay blood money to hear the chorus' strings clearly. I love the line "wear my blinders in the rain". God fame is really starting to affect her. I super love that this song is precious in her eyes. 4 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
James19709 638 Posted December 12, 2015 Does anybody else think it's "Sometimes I wake up in the morning to red, blue and yellow lies"? 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DeadAgainst 1,515 Posted December 12, 2015 Does anybody else think it's "Sometimes I wake up in the morning to red, blue and yellow lies"? Yes! "Yellow lies" as in "yellow journalism" https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yellow_journalism This being the "they" who destroy her 8 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
James19709 638 Posted December 12, 2015 Yes! "Yellow lies" as in "yellow journalism" https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yellow_journalism This being the "they" who destroy her "On Monday they destroyed me, but by Friday I'm revived" as the follow up line pretty much confirmed it for me so I wondered why nobody else thought so for this long. Way better lyric than "lights" imo too 4 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cheaptrailertrashglm 3,570 Posted October 5, 2016 Yes! "Yellow lies" as in "yellow journalism" https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yellow_journalism This being the "they" who destroy her this would actually make perfect sense in the song. i've never heard of yellow journalism, would have never thought of it! also this song just makes me sad for Lana. 1 Quote ~INSTA~ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
WhiteHydrangea 4,216 Posted May 13, 2017 I think it's funny how we dismiss these type of songs, the ones in which Lana admits she clearly isn't happy around fame, we never really discuss them, I wonder if that's because we blind ourselves when we hear them on the album and just decide to go straight up to the bops or more interesting juicy tracks... I really want to listen to Lust For Life carefully when it comes out and try to see if I can get what she's trying to say. Sometimes I wake up in the morning To red, blue and yellow lights On Monday they destroyed me But by Friday I'm revived Put on that hotel California Wear my blinders in the rain I've got nothing much to live for Ever since I found my fame I always wanted someone to make a fan made video for God Knows I Tried with just pure paparazzi videos of Lana, and candid pics, just to get this track to a whole another impactful level you know? Show all the privacy invation and all that. (You could probably add the stalkers mess from 2015 too) Imagine that... A video! 7 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kitschesque 9,884 Posted December 4, 2017 I've always thought the line "I've got nothing much to live for ever since I found my fame" and pretty much the whole song was about depression and a feeling of solitude and oppression in general Today I've come to the conclusion it's more of an ode to everything she achieved and the fact that there's nothing more to discover in life - as if she achieved her dreams of becoming famous and she isn't inspired anymore bc of achieving everything she ever wanted so that there's no feeling of purpose in her life anymore 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Log Lana 911 Posted August 17, 2020 I’m falling in love with Honeymoon again and one of the main reasons is this song, for sure. I can’t explain it. I needed to listen to it without even knowing it. Oh Lana, you gave birth to a timeless masterpiece. 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

GeminiLanaFan 49,245 Posted May 20, 2022 My dog and I were strolling trough my favourite park, by the river, this morning, and God Knows I Tried started playing… and the scenery fitted the song perfectly, with its pastel colours, the fog on the river, the sunrise… truly magical. https://imgur.com/gallery/gUOfXdh 3 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
