Ride
Embracing Freedom: Lana Del Rey's Journey on the Open Road
Lyrics
I've been out on that open road
I've been traveling on the open road.
You can be my full time, daddy, white and gold
You have the potential to be my committed partner, someone luxurious and successful.
Singing blues has been getting old
Singing about sadness has become tiresome.
You can be my full time, baby
You can be my permanent companion, regardless of circumstances.
Hot or cold
Regardless of mood swings or changes.
Don't break me down (don't break me down)
Do not emotionally damage or destroy me.
I've been travelin' too long (I've been travelin' too long)
I've been journeying for an extended period.
I've been trying too hard (I've been trying too hard)
I've been exerting excessive effort.
With one pretty song (with one pretty song)
With just one beautiful song.
I hear the birds on the summer breeze, I drive fast
I sense the sounds of nature and the wind during summer, and I drive rapidly.
I am alone at midnight
I am by myself at midnight.
Been tryin' hard not to get into trouble, but I
I've been striving hard to avoid getting into trouble, but I
I've got a war in my mind
I have conflicting thoughts and emotions.
So, I just ride
So, I choose to keep moving forward without overthinking.
Just ride, I just ride, I just ride
Just keep going, without hesitation.
Dying young and playing hard
Living recklessly and enjoying life to the fullest while young.
That's the way my father made his life an art
That's how my father lived, turning life into an artistic expression.
Drink all day and we talk 'til dark
Drinking and conversing extensively until late.
That's the way the road doves do it, ride 'til dark
That's how individuals like me live, riding until late hours.
Don't leave me now (don't leave me now)
Do not abandon me at this moment.
Don't say good bye (don't say good bye)
Do not bid farewell.
Don't turn around (don't turn around)
Do not turn away from me.
Leave me high and dry (leave me high and dry)
Do not leave me alone and helpless.
I hear the birds on the summer breeze, I drive fast
I sense the sounds of nature and the wind during summer, and I drive rapidly.
I am alone at midnight
I am by myself at midnight.
Been tryin' hard not to get into trouble, but I
I've been striving hard to avoid getting into trouble, but I
I've got a war in my mind
I have conflicting thoughts and emotions.
I just ride
So, I choose to keep moving forward without overthinking.
Just ride, I just ride, I just ride
Just keep going, without hesitation.
I'm tired of feeling like I'm fucking crazy
I'm tired of feeling mentally unstable.
I'm tired of driving 'til I see stars in my eyes
I'm tired of driving until I'm disoriented.
All I've got to keep myself sane, baby
All I have to maintain my sanity, darling,
So I just ride, I just ride
Is to continue moving forward without overthinking.
I hear the birds on the summer breeze, I drive fast
I sense the sounds of nature and the wind during summer, and I drive rapidly.
I am alone at midnight
I am by myself at midnight.
Been tryin' hard not to get into trouble, but I
I've been striving hard to avoid getting into trouble, but I
I've got a war in my mind
I have conflicting thoughts and emotions.
I just ride
So, I choose to keep moving forward without overthinking.
Just ride, I just ride, I just ride
Just keep going, without hesitation.
