the power of defining yourself: 'mariner's apartment complex' by lana del rey | analysis & reaction

hello!

in this video i analyze the lyrics to lana del rey's song 'mariner's apartment complex' from her album 'norman f-ing rockwell'. i do this through the lens of diction (word choice) and connotation (the ~vibes~ or emotions that words elicit)

i believe this song illustrates the power that exists in not letting others mislabel you. lana truly takes her power back and lets her true character be known...in the context of her relationship.

i find that sentiment really powerful. i'd say that there's always power in knowing who you are, at your core, and not allowing anyone else to mislabel you. there's value in being firm in your truth~
