Top Comments of this video!! :3
I feel as if Lanaâs old albums took place near the beaches, in lively cities such as LA and New York City, and had more of a sexual vibe to them. But now this album and Chemtrails over the country club sound as if they where written in a cabin, in a small rural city with a farming community, and has more family and platonic love than romantic vibes. We are in a different Lana era now and i live for it :)

Honestly, the best song on the record. It tells a story, the music accompanies, but takes us through chapters of life, and her variations on the theme, as they morph and move from blue to grey... it's not a song, it's an anthology of life experience and poetry. IMO none of the other songs on the record come close to this. Masterful.

I just adopted a german sheppherd from An agressive household. She was just diagnosed from cancer on her breasts Because of having so mamy puppies (they were selling her children) and her hormones donât work properly anymore
She is getting better mentally, still..
She is my best friend and when I have no one - she welcomes me with that doggy face smile on her face.
Dogs are the mental healthy animals.
We love you Lana - Saba loves your music as well, falls asleep every time she hears âBlue Banistersâ.

She doesn't deserve a Grammy, or any prize or an award. She deserves the world. She deserves all the good things that are coming and will keep going to her. She's an angel on earth, but at the same time she's so human as us to make mistakes and learn from them. She lights people with her words and her melodies. I'm so proud of Lana on this album and as a fan, I really enjoy the perfect mix she's giving us of good music and words full of beauty and knowledge. âĄâĄ

"Blue Banisters"
There's a picture on the wall
Of me on a John Deere
Jenny handed me a beer
Said, "How the hell did you get there?"
Oh, Oklahoma
Mm-mm, mm
There were flowers that were dry
Sittin' on the dresser
She asked me where they're from
I said, "A place I don't remember"
Oh, Oklahoma (Oh-oh)
Jenny jumped into the pool
She was swimmin' with Nikki Lane
She said, "Most men don't want a woman
With a legacy, it's of age"
She said "You can't be a muse and be happy, too
You can't blacken the pages with Russian poetry
And be happy"
And that scared me
'Cause I met a man who
Said he'd come back every May
Just to help me if I'd paint my banisters blue
Blue banisters, ooh
Said he'd fix my weathervane
Give me children, take away my pain
And paint my banisters blue
My banisters blue
There's a hole that's in my heart
All my women try and heal
They're doin' a good job
Convincin' me that it's not real
It's heat lightning, oh-oh-oh, oh
'Cause there's a man that's in my past
There's a man that's still right here
He's real enough to touch
In my darkest nights, he's shinin'
Ooh-ooh-ooh
Jenny was smokin' by the pool
We were writin' with Nikki Lane
I said I'm scared of the Santa Clarita Fires
I wish that it would rain
I said the power of us three can bring absolutely anything
Except that one thing
The diamonds, the rust, and the rain
The thing that washes away the pain
But that's okay, 'cause
Now when weather turns to May
All my sisters come to paint my banisters green
My blue banisters grey
Tex and Mex are in the Bay
Chucky's makin' birthday cake
Chickens runnin', bare feet, there's a baby on the way
And now my blue banisters are green and grey, ah-ah
Summer comes, winter goes
Spring, I skip, God knows
Summer comes, winter goes
Spring, I sleep, Heaven knows
Every time it turns to May
All my sisters fly to me
To paint, paint

This is my interpretation of this song. I don't know how it will be, but I hope it will be more good after you finish reading.
At the beginning of the story is she says she has a picture of her on a tractor. And her friend (Jenny) asks how she got it. All that she was going to convey was a coincidence. Sometimes, one thing happened for no reason. So she replied to her friend "Oklahoma," indicating that anything could happen here. The same goes for dried flowers on the dressing table. She didn't know what the reason was. She just knew she got it from Oklahoma.
The next scene is the swimming pool. Two of her friends talk about how men don't like strong women. Another friend (Nikki) replied that we can't have two things at once and be happy. In life, sometimes you have to choose one. The coincidence her friend said shocked her because once in a lifetime, she once met a man she fell in love with, in Oklahoma.
(Lana's favorite color is blue. it conveys sadness and sadness is always with us. It has beauty within.) The man promised that he would be her banisters (who is willing to be her lean-on.) He promises to take care of her sorrow, promises to have children with her, promises to have a house together. Even the day he didn't come back, those promises were still with her.
She went on to say that she had a hole in her heart that came from the man's promises. (Actually, it's not just because of that guy. The pain in one's life is so great that the hole is deep.) Her friends try to heal it. They consoled her that these wounds would not make her give up. She felt good having a friend by her side, but one thing was still beside her as well. He was with her everywhere, in dreams, in thoughts, shining in the darkness. He's so real that she can't lie that the pain isn't real.
Back to the swimming pool scene, She told her friends that the California wildfires would be raining. (She avoids saying to her friend that one day the pain will be healed.) She had hoped that she could do anything, but she knew it wasn't raining. The fire doesn't stop burning and the pain never goes away
But she thought it was time for her to make a choice.
Once again, summer has returned. She looked back at the life and the world. She found that everything was fine and stable. Everyone was trying to heal her pain. She had just realized that it was up to her whether she would let the pain heal or not. Then in the house where she dreamed that he would be the person she would lean on, it was her friends and sisters she loved instead. Then the man standing in the house in her memory gradually disappeared. He never comes back, but she needs to be happy.
Green and gray are not her favorite colors. But two colors are not sad.
(I've read one comment that when we have a bruise, it will be blue initially, and fade to green and gray.)
Summer comes and winter goes. She had just realized how long she hadn't let go of him in her memory. Summer comes and winter goes. In the end, she finally made up her mind that he couldn't keep his promises. But everyone around her can. So she let him go.
(At the end when her voice seems to be asleep I saw a painting of a woman in white sleeping on the bed. There was a light and angels flew down to meet her, which are her friends, and they are willing to heal and always be by her side. So she sleeps tonight and meets peace in dreams.)
