Serial Killer
Lana Del Rey (Fan Mix) Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Wish I may, wish I might
Find my one true love tonight
Do you think that he could be you?

If I pray really tight
Get into a fake bar fight
While I'm walking down the avenue
If I lay really quiet
I know that what I do isn't right
I can't stop what I love to do
So I murder love in the night
Watching them fall one by one, they fight
Did you think you'll love me too?

Baby, I'm a sociopath
Sweet serial killer
On the warpath
'Cause I love you just a little too much
I love you just a little too much
You can see me drinking Cherry Cola
Sweet serial killer
I left a love note
Said you know I love the thrill of the rush
You know I love the thrill of the rush

(You send me right to heaven)
Sweet serial killer (I guess I'll see him over)
Do it for the thrill of the rush
Love you just a little too much, much
(You send me right to heaven)
Sweet serial killer
(I guess I'll see him over)
I love you just a little too much
Love you just a little too much, much

My black fire's burning bright
Maybe I'll go out tonight
We can paint the town in blue
I'm so hot, I ignite
Dancing in the dark and I shine
Like a light I'm luring you
Sneak up on you really quiet
Whisper, "Am I what your heart desires?"
I can be your ingenue
Keep you safe and inspired
Baby, let your fantasies unwind
We can do what you want to do

Baby, I'm a sociopath
Sweet serial killer
On the warpath
'Cause I love you just a little too much
I love you just a little too much
You can see me drinking Cherry Cola
Sweet serial killer
I left a love note
Said you know I love the thrill of the rush
You know I love the thrill of the rush

(You send me right to heaven)
Sweet serial killer
(I guess I'll see him over)
Do it for the thrill of the rush
Love you just a little too much, much
(You send me right to heaven)
Sweet serial killer
(I guess I'll see him over)
I love you just a little too much
Love you just a little too much, much

Just have fun
(Wanna play you like a Gameboy)
I don't want one
(What's the thrill of the same toy?)
La-la, la-la, la, la-la, la-la, lie down, down

Just have fun
(I wanna play you like a Gameboy)
I don't want one
(What's the thrill of the same toy?)
La-la, la-la, la, la-la, la-la, lie down, down

Oh

You can see me drinking Cherry Cola
Sweet serial killer
I left a love note
Said you know I love the thrill of the rush
You know I love the thrill of the rush

(You send me right to heaven)
Sweet serial killer
(I guess I'll see him over)
Do it for the thrill of the rush
Love you just a little too much, much
(You send me right to heaven)
Sweet serial killer
(I guess I'll see him over)




I love you just a little too much
Love you just a little too much, much

Overall Meaning

In "Serial Killer," Lana Del Rey sings about a desire to find true love but also acknowledges her a sociopathic tendency of loving just a little too much. She fantasizes about committing murder out of a sense of passion for the person she loves. As the song progresses, she becomes more explicit about this desire to kill, questioning whether her lover will truly love her once they uncover her true nature. This creates a jarring juxtaposition of sweet, almost romantic language about love and a darker, more violent element.


Overall, the song seems to explore the idea of love being intense and all-consuming. Lana Del Rey's character seems to question the extent of her own love for her partner and how far she is willing to go to keep them close. The lyrics are a combination of romantic longing and violent obsession, leaving the listener to question if the two can coexist.

Assassina Em Série


Gostaria de poder, gostaria de poder
Encontrar meu único e verdadeiro amor essa noite
Você acha que ele poderia ser você?
Se eu rezar com muito fervor
Entrar em uma briga de bar falsa
Enquanto eu ando pela avenida

Se eu me deitar bem silenciosa
Sei que o que eu faço não é certo
Não consigo parar o que eu amo fazer
Então eu mato o amor à noite
Vendo-os cair um por um, eles lutam
Você acha que me amará também?

Querido, eu sou uma sociopata
Doce assassina em série
A caminho da guerra
Porque eu te amo um pouco demais
Eu te amo um pouco demais (demais, demais)

Você pode me ver bebendo Coca-Cola
Doce assassina em série
Deixei um bilhete de amor
Disse, você sabe que eu amo a emoção do ataque
Você sabe que eu amo a emoção do ataque

(Você me manda direto para o paraíso)
Doce assassina em série
(Acho que o verei de novo)
Faço isso pela emoção do ataque
Te amo um pouco demais, demais

(Você me manda direto para o paraíso)
Doce assassina em série
(Acho que o verei de novo)
Eu te amo um pouco demais
Te amo um pouco demais, demais

Meu fogo sombrio está queimando intensamente
Talvez eu saia hoje à noite
Podemos pintar a cidade de azul
Estou tão quente, eu pego fogo
Dançando no escuro e eu brilho
Como uma luz, estou te atraindo

Me aproximo de você bem silenciosa
Sussurro, eu sou o que seu coração deseja?
Eu posso ser sua jovem inocente
Te manter seguro e inspirado
Querido, deixe suas fantasias se desenrolarem
Podemos fazer o que você quiser

Querido, eu sou uma sociopata
Doce assassina em série
A caminho da guerra
Porque eu te amo um pouco demais
Eu te amo um pouco demais (demais, demais)

Você pode me ver bebendo Coca-Cola
Doce assassina em série
Deixei um bilhete de amor
Disse, você sabe que eu amo a emoção do ataque
Você sabe que eu amo a emoção do ataque (ataque, ataque)

(Você me manda direto para o paraíso)
Doce assassina em série
(Acho que o verei de novo)
Faço isso pela emoção de tudo
Te amo um pouco demais, demais

(Você me manda direto para o paraíso)
Doce assassina em série
(Acho que o verei de novo)
Eu te amo um pouco demais
Te amo um pouco demais, demais

Apenas se divirta
(Quero brincar com você como um gameboy)
Eu não quero um
(Qual é a emoção do mesmo brinquedo?)
La-la, la-la, la, la-la, la-la, se deite, deite

Apenas se divirta
(Quero brincar com você como um gameboy)
Eu não quero um
(Qual é a emoção do mesmo brinquedo?)
La-la, la-la, la, la-la, la-la, se deite, deite
Oh!

Você pode me ver bebendo Coca-Cola
Doce assassina em série
Deixei um bilhete de amor
Disse, você sabe que eu amo a emoção do ataque
Você sabe que eu amo a emoção do ataque

(Você me manda direto para o paraíso)
Doce assassina em série
(Acho que o verei de novo)
Faço isso pela emoção de tudo
Te amo um pouco demais, demais

(Você me manda direto para o paraíso)
Doce assassina em série
(Acho que o verei de novo)
Eu te amo um pouco demais
Te amo um pouco demais, demais

@user-qd1ju6pn4w

​@@vehement.lanas laptop w these songs got stolen and leaked, they wouldve been released tho

@user-hk8yp7cw1v

No, it wasn't unreleased...It was recorded as one of the first tracks for Del Rey's second studio album, Born to Die (2012) but didn't make the cut. The lyrics and musical composition are attributed to Del Rey and Peter Ibsen.
