CarcrashBandicoot Posted May 9, 2015 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
Trash Magic Posted May 9, 2015 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
Wild One Posted May 9, 2015 Posted May 9, 2015 The chorus reminds me too much of Ultraviolence 4 Quote
longtimeman Posted May 9, 2015 Posted May 9, 2015 Born to Lose/Loose is also a famous song performed by Jimmy Gnecco style inpiration Johnny Thunders 3 Quote
NamiraWilhelm Posted May 9, 2015 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
Sebastian Posted May 9, 2015 Author Posted May 9, 2015 This song is obviously about Lana and Francesco. 1 Quote
VioletPrincess Posted May 9, 2015 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
YUNGATA Posted May 9, 2015 Posted May 9, 2015 a lil 8th grade english class but i'll try and reserve judgement till it actually comes out. 5 Quote
ilovetati Posted May 9, 2015 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

CarcrashBandicoot Posted May 9, 2015 Posted May 9, 2015 Yeah I saw, someone posted a link to the picture on a status I made but thanks for this, at least it's here. 0 Quote
Honeybear Posted May 9, 2015 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
Just Cherry Posted May 9, 2015 Posted May 9, 2015 A friend at the show confirmed the lyric book is real. 0 Quote
GodBlessMe Posted May 9, 2015 Posted May 9, 2015 The bridge is really great but that chorus 1 Quote I AM MY ONLY GOD
Star Lux Posted May 9, 2015 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 "Wild child, starry-eyed junkie, Coney Island Madonna, sick chanteuse and philosopher femme fatale... Lizzy Grant, ur everything"
WhiteHydrangea Posted May 9, 2015 Posted May 9, 2015 Already wanting to be fucked at a dark alley as this song plays in the background. Too far? Yes. Don't give a fuck tho 12 Quote
fessle Posted May 9, 2015 Posted May 9, 2015 Mr. Born to lose HAHAHAHHA love this im never critical when it comes to lana 0 Quote 8/1/13 . 8/2/13 . 5/16/14 . 10/4/14 . 10/11/14 . 5/30/15 . 7/28/16 . 5/20/17 . 1/11/18 . 2/11/18
GodBlessMe Posted May 9, 2015 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
PinkVelvet Posted May 9, 2015 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
