[Lana Del Rey - Past the Bushes Cypress Thriving lyrics]
I saw you in the mirror
You were wearing your hair differently
Carrying the air differently
You said you wear your hair long parted
In the middle
Long in solidarity just like all his women
In Long Beach
Aimless
Your fingers wiping oil on
The paper with precision
With decision like an artist never
Seen yet with a vision
With a reason
Stared with venom at the ceiling
Not the grass but straight ahead
Just at the skyline with precision
Laser vision
Time was stopping moving through you
You dictated by what moved you
Only moving, never thinking
Match to the sun that’s slowly sinking
At the height of the afternoon
In the heat of the summer evening
Like a phoenix, like a chem trail
Like a wavelength no one’s claiming
Georgia o Keefe georgia peaches
Doing nothing but your painting for forever
Forget teachers forgive him for ever leaving
Love is rising no resisting
Cheeks are flushing now you’re living
Say goodbye now no resisting
Live your life like no one's listening
Be the art the life is breathing
Be the soul the world is living
For you only not for giving
Just for taking no one's listening
At the end of Rose and Rich
Down the street that’s green and winding
Past the bushes cypress thriving
Past the chain link fence and driving
Further down the road less travelled
There you are athleisure wear unraveled
Now I see you clear
Standing stoic blue and denim
Eyes not blue but clear like heaven
You don’t want to be forgotten
You just want to disappear
You were wearing your hair differently
Carrying the air differently
You said you wear your hair long parted
In the middle
Long in solidarity just like all his women
In Long Beach
Aimless
Your fingers wiping oil on
The paper with precision
With decision like an artist never
Seen yet with a vision
With a reason
Stared with venom at the ceiling
Not the grass but straight ahead
Just at the skyline with precision
Laser vision
Time was stopping moving through you
You dictated by what moved you
Only moving, never thinking
Match to the sun that’s slowly sinking
At the height of the afternoon
In the heat of the summer evening
Like a phoenix, like a chem trail
Like a wavelength no one’s claiming
Georgia o Keefe georgia peaches
Doing nothing but your painting for forever
Forget teachers forgive him for ever leaving
Love is rising no resisting
Cheeks are flushing now you’re living
Say goodbye now no resisting
Live your life like no one's listening
Be the art the life is breathing
Be the soul the world is living
For you only not for giving
Just for taking no one's listening
At the end of Rose and Rich
Down the street that’s green and winding
Past the bushes cypress thriving
Past the chain link fence and driving
Further down the road less travelled
There you are athleisure wear unraveled
Now I see you clear
Standing stoic blue and denim
Eyes not blue but clear like heaven
You don’t want to be forgotten
You just want to disappear
