Tessa DiPietro lyrics - Lana Del Rey

 No one ever touched me without wanting to kill me

Except for a healer on 6th street in Ridgely

Tessa DiPietro,

Recommended casually by a medium I no longer know


She said my number-one problem was that my field was untrusting

When asked what to do, she paused and said nothing

Which sent me right into uncontrollable sobbing


Because there's never anything you can do about the important things


She said "Okay, one thing you can do is picture the floor rising up to support you,

And sink into the back of the bed that's behind you

Too much of your energy is in front and above you"


Which, for some reason, made me think of a live show I'd seen

Jim Morrison at the Hollywood Bowl, 1968, check date


The blue trellis lights gave him an unusual aura

Like a halo or something

Made him 8 feet or taller


I remember just thinking he looked out of his body

But definitely like a god on stage


So I told her "Maybe an artist has to function a little bit above themselves,

If they really want to transmit some heaven"


And she told me

"A singleness of focus is the key to transmission,

For an emphasis on developing inner intuition,

Close your eyes and feel where you hold your attention


If it's in the back of your eyes

Walk it down to your heart's centre

And make that the new place from which your thoughts enter


Clairvoyance comes mostly from this simple function

Oh - and Jim died at 27

So find another frame of reference

When you're referencing heaven


And have you ever read the lyrics to 'People are Strange'?

He made no sense!"
