Violet Bent Backwards Over the Grass

by Lana Del Rey

i measure time by the days i’ve spent away from you that thought occurred to me as i watched the sky go dark from blue

The sun to my wilting daisy

this place feels like a person familiar

But honestly if you weren’t here i don’t know what things would look like

sometimes i’m afraid my sadness is too big

Be the art that life is breathing Be the soul the world is living.

Do what you want For you only Not for giving Just for taking

just a girl in love dreaming on paper

Sugar sugar lips and teeth fingertips touch emojis hard forever hearts on fleek bb please come over

Don’t make me be resilient i so want to be soft if u let me be myself u will be the first one who ever did.

What will it take for me not to need you so I can just have you for fun and for who you really are

How it could think how it could dream. I know I know -who am I to dream for you it’s just that in my own mind I was born with a little bit of paradise.

I was lucky in that way not like my husband- who was born and raised in hell.

But lately I’ve been thinking that I wish someone had told me when I was younger more about the inhabitants that thrive off of paradise. That should they take too much there will be nothing left to give.
