Born in Madrid's red-light district, Estela Carmen grew into a breathtakingly beautiful and poisonous flower at the most innocent, tender age.
She longs for redemption, for love, to escape, to be held... From Madrid to Barcelona, from Ricardo, the Brazilian saint who brought her out of the abyss, to the Catalan man willing to give her a family and an intimate relationship, everyone loves her, captivated by her almost childlike, wicked smile.
The story of a black-hearted lotus entangled with numerous football coaches, club owners, and players.
Darling, darling, doesn't have a problem,
“Darling, darling, everything's all right,”
Lying to herself 'cause her liquor's top shelf,
She lies to herself because she drinks the finest liquor,
It's alarming honestly how charming she can be,
It's truly alarming how charming she can be,
Fooling everyone, telling them she's having fun,
Fooling everyone, telling them how much fun she's having,
She says, “You don't want to be like me,
She says, “You wouldn't want to be like me,
Don't wanna see all the things I've seen.
You wouldn't want to see all the things I've seen.”
I'm dying, I'm dying,
I'm rotting away, I'm rotting away,
She says, “You don't want to get this way,
She says, “You wouldn't want to live like this,
Famous and dumb at an early age.
Famous and foolish before you've even grown up.”
Lying, I'm lying,
I'm lying, I'm lying,
The boys, the girls, they all like Carmen,
The boys and girls, they all like Carmen,
She gives them butterflies, bats her cartoon eyes,
She gives them butterflies, batting those cartoon eyes,
She laughs like God, her mind's like a diamond,
She laughs like a god, and her mind's a diamond,
Audiotune lies, she's still shining,
Like lightning, ohh, white lightning,
Like a flash of lightning, oh, white lightning,
Carmen, Carmen, staying up til morning,
Carmen, Carmen, partying until morning,
Only seventeen, but she walks the streets so mean,
Only seventeen, yet she struts down the street like she owns it,
It's alarming truly how disarming you can be,
It's truly alarming how easily you can disarm people.
“Carmen” by Lana Del Rey
Theme: “When I'm trapped in hell, only love and money can save me.”
