Lan Del Rey - Ultraviolence (Lyrics)
He used to call me DN
That stood for Deadly Nightshade
'Cause I was filled with poison
But blessed with beauty and rage
Jim told me that, he hit me and it felt like a kiss
Jim brought me back, reminded me of when we were kids
With his ultraviolence
Ultraviolence
Ultraviolence
Ultraviolence
I can hear sirens, sirens
He hit me and it felt like a kiss
I can hear violins, violins
Give me all of that ultraviolence
He used to call me poison
Like I was Poison Ivy
I could have died right there
'Cause he was right beside me
Jim raised me up, he hurt me but it felt like true love
Jim taught me that, loving him was never enough
With his ultraviolence
Ultraviolence
Ultraviolence
Ultraviolence
I can hear sirens, sirens
He hit me and it felt like a kiss
I can hear violins, violins
Give me all of that ultraviolence
We could go back to New York
Loving you was really hard
We could go back to Woodstock
Where they don't know who we are
Heaven is on Earth
I would do anything for you, baby
Blessed is this union
Crying tears of gold like lemonade
I love you the first time, I love you the last time
Yo soy la princesa, comprende mis white lines
'Cause I'm your jazz singer and you're my cult leader
I love you forever, I love you forever
With his ultraviolence (Lay me down tonight)
Ultraviolence (In my linen and curls)
Ultraviolence (Lay me down tonight)
Ultraviolence (Riviera Girls)
I can hear sirens, sirens
He hit me and it felt like a kiss
I can hear violins, violins
Give me all of that ultraviolence

She's not glamorizing abuse, she's just trying to explain to us how a woman in love with an abusive person feels: she tries to justify every form of abuse as if it was her fault or a love proof. This song is so much deeper than everybody thinks. And whether she's talking about physical or psychological violence, she's not glamorizing it, just showing the point of view of a manipulated woman by a toxic man. EDIT : Thank you so much for your support ♡ and by the way, the song is not only about strictly heterosexual toxic relationships, but about everything kind of relationships ;)

there’s a difference between romanticizing and portraying. she’s not saying it’s good to be in an abusive relationship, she’s singing from the point of view of a woman who is trapped in one and in deep denial, which resonates with many.

I hope anybody going through similar finds peace and true happiness

This generation is utterly apathetic. People only 'care' about whatever popular cause is 'in' these days. This means they truly care about nothing.

[@TaraTheAndroid]

joemcbee that's because they're androids made of flesh and bone. only 2% of humans born since 1995 and forward have a personality. the rest are just wheels in a brainwashing machinery ruled by their master: technology. this is horrible and sad to say but it's actually true.

[@joemcbee]

@@TaraTheAndroid technology really is a huge part of why people have become so disconnected. On top of that, the 'progressive' goal is destroying the traditional family unit, by promoting single mother families, marginalizing the importance the role of fathers in the family. They really are a product of their environment. There are easy to see examples in the comments for this video. things talking about 'having a mental breakdown eating sugar' trying to sound legit in order to get likes. I rarely see any honest thoughts from anyone. But they dont know any better. Maybe it's just a phase kids will grow out of as they mature. Either way people need to start putting down the phones and reconnect with the people in their lives. Your parents aren't going to live forever. In 50 years are you going to regret not posting enough on Instagram, or developing strong lasting relationships with your friends and family? Tangent over haha

[@veggiesaremurder]

"He hit me and it felt like a kiss..." Love that line. For me, this song demonstrates beautifully what it's like to be in love with someone who abuses you. From the outside, no one can even come close to understanding why in the world you would stay with someone who harms you. Like anything else, love can be very addicting, and even the ups and downs, the highs and lows of a toxic relationship can be intoxicating, like a chemical rush of adrenaline, fear, love, lust, and sadness. There is something very strange and unique about this particular human behavior. It is completely beyond any rationale, and even though you don't like being hurt, you don't like being mistreated, it is very easy to get caught up in the desire to fix the person and save the relationship. Your own behavior is reinforced every time you do something "right" and the abuser rewards you with affection and praise, or compensates for the latest abusive incident by showering you with the love that you want most. Once you see that they are capable of being loving, it's so easy to get trapped by the idea that you can somehow "make" them treat you with respect indefinitely. This is what people don't understand about victims of abuse. Not only are they afraid of leaving the person, they are actually addicted to the relationship because they feel that they NEED that person in order to feel whole.

[@ihatemickiegee]

this was literally why I cried the instant I first heard this song, the day it came out. I was actually at the airport, it released, and I listened to ultraviolence before even checking anything else because a clockwork orange is one of my favorite all-time novels/movies. the very first verse and chorus poured tears down my eyes, ironically the first time in a while I had gone to the airport without makeup, because my first love was my abuser and we 'dated' for the first time when we were preteens, basically "reminded me of when we were kids", you know. I could go on and on what each lyric relates intensely to me and my past relationship that took 8 on and off years to get out of, but regardless this song had me ON THE metaphorical (and literal a lot of the time tbh) FLOOR and still takes my breath away over that line "he hit me and it felt like a kiss." I will never get over it, and the whole UV era fulfilled my own aesthetic and one of my favorite forms of Lana. I will forever feel blessed by this song and album, and I couldn't have said it (the significance you stated in your comment) better myself. thank you.

[@clotildemartinezlopez7017]

Exactly !! This is actually quite important to talk about because a lot of times people blame women for the abuse done to them or downplay it because they don’t leave their abuser, but it’s so much complicated than that. The brain of an abused woman doesn’t see things like she would have done it before she was in that abusive relationship

[@Moonsong_]

@@clotildemartinezlopez7017 I couldn’t agree more. The abusive person has to brainwash the victim into believing that they’re safe with them.

[@clotildemartinezlopez7017]

@@Moonsong_ it’s not just that also if the victim believes she loves him that turns into a trauma bond and she feels like it’s better to be in that abusive situation than the feeling of being without that person even if that abuse is truly destroying her. That’s why you should never truly get mad and leave alone a victim of abuse you have to make her realize that there’s a world outside of that relationship. Because the abuser also will do everything to isolate her and control her so she sees him as her whole reality and life and that way the trauma attachment gets stronger

To this day, no other lyric can compare to the way Lana sings “he hit me and it felt like a kiss”

[@anushkapradhan4616]

I have an unhealthy obsession with this song

[@ivansmom]

Let's be honest, this song alone deserved a Grammy, let alone the whole album. Critics are saying that she's mad that she didn't get a Grammy but the women she named in her post did. Even if it was her intention, it's cool. Anyone who has worked hard would feel this way. Some stupid people are just taking it the wrong way. I'm not a huge fan of Lana but i appreciate good music when I hear it. And who tf takes Grammy's seriously now ? Trashy artists have been winning.

[@user-bu3bv6fj7c]

you're so right!!!

[@ananyaacharya645]

agreed. and they said she 'glamorizes abuse' but she's just singing about her experiences. Anyway lana >>>>all the artists she mentioned, so even if she was calling them out, she wasn't wrong. They're nowhere near her level.

Imagine not being emotionally, perspectively and intellectually capable enough to understand that this song isn’t about glorifying anything. Emotions are so much more complicated than good and bad. And words can be meant in so many different ways. Her music is only for a select few who understand the connotations of her lyrics and melodies.

I am a death metal musician, but I recognize talent in other genres. Miss Del Rey(i know that"s not her real name)is the best in the pop world at this moment. There is a sultry genius to her. It's easy for people to hate on things they don't understand, but as one who has stepped out of his comfort zone; I would ask you not to hate this artwork, but accept it as an alien idea. Men were afraid of electricity at one time.

[@DanishFlandersDK]

I can totally relate. I'm a lover of music, and genres don't defy my taste in music. Though i mostly listen to bands like Judas Priest, PanterA, Primus and Death, i also listen to rap music like N.W.A and Eminem, electronic music like Major Lazer and so on... Again, music taste not defied by genres, but i find that most modern music is really awful, so it's really nice to see new artist like Lana Del Rey, producing soulful, magical music! And seeing that other people like yourself, that also normally listens to metal, also likes this says quite something about an artist from a whole other genre!

[@AssassinsCreedMan621]

[@jamescraig6366]

I feel ya, I normally listen to metal as well like lamb of God, suicide silence, slayer, Pantera, also a big fan of deftones, recently been listening to a lot of Chino Moreno's side projects like crosses and team sleep, but when I first heard lana I was thinking my god, finally a artist who is sincere and makes the music she wants

При отравлении паслёном чёрным - главными симптомами являются тошнота, рвота и понос. Если обожрался паслёном или зелёной картошкой - ( и там и там отравляет алкалоид - соланин) главное быстрее вызвать рвоту и промыть желудок. Чтобы сдохнуть от солонина , паслёна надо сожрать ведро ягоды или килограмма 3 - 5 зелёного картофеля да ещё и с кожурой. Но однозначно навалишь в штаны гораздо раньше чем всё сожрешь., если конечно сможешь есть эту гадость. Таким образом называя эту бабу паслёном, чувак имел в виду, что она вызывает понос и рвоту. Для убедительности он ещё и врезал ей по морде три раза. Но мазохистка восприняла удары по своей харе как проявление высшей любви. Но тут уж каждому психу своя радость🤣.

I understand this song now in 2024, compared to in 2014 when I was 13. I'm now 23, and having been in an abuser coercive relationship with a Narcissist I can relate to the song-the Stockholm Syndrome/Trauma bond you have with a perpetrator of abuse-especially because if you have a parent who was also Narcissistic you continue in adulthood with the idea that this relationship is healthy but you find out the hard way through heartbreak and breaking the trauma bond. I developed to understand the song. I love you forever Lana Del Rey your music is timeless -Isaac

Just found this song and it reminds me of my parents. They were together since they were 16 until mid 50s 4 years ago, my dads nickname is Jim, it's what my mum would call him and he was abusive and aggressive to her on and off for many years with a drinking and drug problem. But there was still an underlying love, and they had so many stories from their past they shared together until eventually having me. Such a shame things had to end that way after so long.

either way, that line wasn't actually written by lana, it's taken from a song by the crystals from 1962. good choice to bring it back tho.

[@DL-er4vr]

for me, this song isn't glamorizing abuse. it takes us into the mind of someone in an abusive relationship. when you're in a codependent, abusive (emotional or physical) relationship you don't see what other people are seeing. you just know you love the person and you can't afford to lose them, love means pain and you're ready to receive every blow just so that person stays. i've been there. it's painful to leave and heal but more painful to stay. this song is deep and real but it's difficult to understand when you haven't lived it.
