This Is What Makes Us Girls

'Sweet sixteen and we had arrived
Walking down the street as they whistle, "hi, hi!"
Stealin' police cars with the senior guys
Teachers said we'd never make it out alive


There she was my new best friend
High heels in her hands, swayin' in the wind
While she starts to cry, mascara runnin' down her little Bambi eyes:
"Lana, how i hate those guys."

This is what makes us girls
We don't look for heaven and we put our love first
Don't you know we'd die for it? it's a curse
Don't cry about it, don't cry about it
This is what makes us girls
We don't stick together 'cause we put our love first
Don't cry about him, don't cry about him
It's all gonna happen

(...)

This is what makes us girls now, baby
This is why we rule the world now, baby
This is what makes us girls now, baby
Why we rule the world now, baby'

                          This Is What Makes Us Girls, Lana Del Rey

Summertime Sadness

'Kiss me hard before you go,
Summer time sadness,
I just wanted you to know,
That baby you're the best...

I've got that summertime, summertime sadness,
Summertime, summertime sadness,
Got that summertime, summertime sadness.'

                                      Summertime Sadness, Lana Del Rey

Without You

'Hello? Hello?,

Can you hear me?,
I can be your china doll,
If you want to see me fall,
Boy you're so dope,
Your love is deadly,
Tell me life is beautiful,
They all think I have it all,
I have nothing without you,
All my dreams and all the lights mean,
Nothing without you...

We were two kids, just trying to get out,
Live on the dark side of the American dream,
We would stay out late, play our music loud,
When we grew up nothing was what it seemed...'

                                           Without You, Lana del Rey
