Black Beauty

This sad romantic song reflects the dark theme that runs throughout Lana Del Rey's Honeymoon album. I paint the house black My wedding dress black leather, too You have no room for light Love is lost on you. I keep my lips red To seem like cherries in the spring Darling, you can't let everything seem so dark blue

Del Rey explained the song's lyrical content to Pitchfork: "That's a girl who is still seeing the blue sky and a putting on a pop of color just for herself. But this [other] person - it was all black for them. And my world became inky with those overtones."
