Lana Del Rey is a 37-year-old singer/songwriter, with music typically styled around love, tragedy, fame, and glamour. Her aesthetic and songs have gained a plethora of attention and granted her a massive fan-base; her influence is undeniable. With this, I’ve compiled some of my favorite lyrics featured in her music.

When you’re standing in the face of danger

I don’t know what I need
They think I don’t understand
The freedom land of the seventies.” (Brooklyn baby)

Handmade beauty sealed up by two man-made walls.” (Did you know that there’s a tunnel under Ocean Boulevard)

6. “Dying young and playing hard, that’s the way my father made his life an art.” (Ride)

Don’t look too far, right where you are, that’s where I am
I’m your man.” (Mariners apartment complex)

As you color me blue.” (Norman Rockwell)

They say that the world was built for two
Only worth living if somebody is loving you.” (Video games)
