Afterparty 3,025 Posted July 27, 2017 I think that It's a moment of silence for those that we've lost. It makes sense because of the lyrics before. I love intelligent people 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pink Champagne 9,587 Posted July 28, 2017 I took it as she either doesn't want to name the two people who have either died or committed suicide, or it's moments of silence for anyone we have lost. 1 Quote I don’t really wanna die, I just want the pain to be over Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

GroupieLover 1,162 Posted July 28, 2017 Lana said herself that the song told about her "entire journey" up until this point. These "censored" words obviously have a shit ton of significant and are super personal. I'm confident they're names of people. Perhaps people she's lost to drug-abuse or other things. Heroin leads me to think she may have lost someone to this drug and maybe she mentions him/her here? "I'm doing it for all of us who never got a chance. For ____ and for _____. For all my birds of paradise who never got to fly at night". She probably included this part because she wanted to honor these people in her song and keep it sincere to her story without exposing these people or disrespecting their names. She didn't want to get too specific or revealing but felt she needed to acknowledge that she's searching for happiness for not only herself but for those in her life who never got the chance to find it before leaving the earth. 7 Quote I'm in love with the green on the grass and the trees, the scent of my sidewalks perfumed by the rain/ I'm in love with the tunes that colored my youth/ and the smudges of autumn that spill through the pane/I'm in love, just in a different way/ and that's okay.

NamiraWilhelm 5,050 Posted July 28, 2017 That's weird, why not sing something else or use fake names, that has to be better than a gap I didn't notice before you guys said it, but I'll bloody notice now 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It gives the song more meaning to her. It probably meant a lot to her that she included it and using fake names would be stupid and shallow imo. 2 Quote I'm in love with the green on the grass and the trees, the scent of my sidewalks perfumed by the rain/ I'm in love with the tunes that colored my youth/ and the smudges of autumn that spill through the pane/I'm in love, just in a different way/ and that's okay.

I love it. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Lel And as if she hasn't previously used fake names in her songs The original song had plenty of meaning for her, what we have is a safe version. It just seems odd to me that you'd delete something for being too personal, start over, only to censor it again. But neither you nor I can rationalise that. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

She couldve censored the names so the song is relatable to all of us. It's for us to fill the gaps. If it were like that, that'd be very beautiful 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Clearly that wasn't my point, considering I'm not the one trashing Lana for censoring the names of these people to literally do that exactly thing (protect identity). My point was that making up random names to replace these people who have real names would seem contrived and unnecessary. I believe the way she chose to do it is perfect. 2 Quote I'm in love with the green on the grass and the trees, the scent of my sidewalks perfumed by the rain/ I'm in love with the tunes that colored my youth/ and the smudges of autumn that spill through the pane/I'm in love, just in a different way/ and that's okay.

glitch diva 2,918 Posted July 28, 2017 (This is very hypothetical) The silence may allude to those who died/killed themselves because of very tragic circumstances. This might explain her saying earlier “[those] who never got the chance.” 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
