Although it’s a fan favourite and always fun to sing along to, I find that some of what Lana sings is quite frightening: that she “loves just a little too much”, showing an unhealthy relationship or feelings “So I murder love in the night” and “On the warpath” are other more pronounced offerings. This song is less obvious, aside from the title, when it comes to being an obsessive romantic, but it still does hold some dark lyrics. I like this vibe and the darkness underneath the perky cheerleader shell of the song, but it’s undeniable that it’s almost scary how determined Lana sounds - and uninhibited. Lyrics such as “If I can’t have you, baby, no one else in this world can” and also “be aggressive, b - e aggressive” spring to mind a dangerous or violent girl who will do whatever she wants to keep a guy only hers much like Adrian in The Crush. What makes this dark, to me, is when you read into the lyrics and piece them together so it becomes less of a bop and more of a promise to keep a tight hold of the object of her affection. This unreleased song is at the bottom of the list because it’s the least harmful in the sense that it’s a fun song with cheerleader-esque chanting and the vibe of a spiteful teen clinging onto her crush. THIS IS NOT HATE, I LOVE HER SONGS (TW: suicide, domestic abuse and a few other things! Be careful if you get triggered by these things because I don’t want to upset anyone!) Though there are possibly other songs that are also quite dark, these are the ones I could narrow it down to. I’m back with another list of Lana’s songs I was thinking about which of Lana’s songs are her darkest or have the darkest lyrics/story and these, in my opinion, are the top 10.
