Lust For Life (ft. The Weeknd)

Recommended Posts

Hmm I kind of like this song now

 

And the H of the Hollywood sign obviously refers to the Heh in the Kabbalistic Tree of Life (the Holy Wood) as the letter of the Shekinah in the Tetragrammaton YHWH, this being the Mother who overlooks the world in the supernal triad while also descending into Malkuth in a progressively denser clothing of light

Rick Nowel's comment in the lyric page of Lust For Life on Genius about the early version of the song

 

"The original “Lust For Life” is a beautiful art song, it’s quite touching. Maybe someday Lana will release it. We did a rewrite of it during the making of the album. It turned out great and It was a thrill to have The Weeknd and Lana singing together."

We're the captains of our own souls

There's no way for us to complain
'Cause boy we're gold, boy we're gold

 

 

Seriously, ya'll will doubt me but look at her mouth in the video. She makes an 'L' with her tongue.

Solo demo lyrics:

 

Take off, take off

Take off all your clothes
Take off, take off
Take off all your clothes

 

They say only the good die young

That just aint us

Plus you're having too much fun

You're not in a rush

 

But it's funny how some things just change in a day, or even in an hour

​I'm like a wild caged animal, lying by the swimming pool losing all my power

It's funny how my life just stopped and shifted from meeting you as a stranger

Now I'm like a wild caged animal, lying by the swimming pool trying to avoid danger

 

But my lust for life

Lust for life

Keeps me alive

But my lust for life

Lust for life

Keeps me alive

 

Take off, take off

Take off all your clothes
Take off, take off
Take off all your clothes

 

They say only the good die young

That just aint right

'Cause we're having too much fun

Too much fun tonight

 

But it's funny how some things just change in a day, or even in an hour

​Now I'm like a wild caged animal, sitting by the swimming pool losing all my power

It's funny how life can change or be shaped passing by a stranger

Now I'm like a wild caged animal, lying by the swimming pool trying to avoid danger

 

But my lust for life

Lust for life

Keeps me alive

But my lust for life

Lust for life

Keeps me alive

 

It's funny how some things just change in a day, or even in an hour

​I'm like a wild caged animal, sitting by the swimming pool losing all my power

It's funny how life can change or be shaped passing by a stranger

Now I'm like a wild caged animal, lying by the swimming pool trying to avoid danger

 

But my lust for life

Lust for life

Keeps me alive

But my lust for life

Lust for life

Keeps me alive

 

Ooh

Ahh

Ahh

Beat me to it sis :creep:


If by not 'up to par' you mean distilling the worst elements that only kind of work in songs, sure. I could put a dictionary audiobook on shuffle and put it to an instrumental of old money and some of y'all would still be saying it's 50/50 lmfao.

The alt verses from the Max Martin demo

 

Verse 1

One foot in the door

I’ve been trying

To get your attention

Is it working, oh yeah

Love me or love me not

I don’t care anymore

But baby I’ve been dying 

To get your attention 

And I was like 

 

Verse 2

One Day or one night 

I’ve been trying

To make a connection 

Is it working, oh no 

Love me or love me not

I don’t care anymore

Cause babe I’ve been dying 

To taste your affection 

And I was like
