Music Monday: Born to Die by Aron Andras

Music Monday is a meme that was created by Drew from The Tattooed Book Geek. Bjørn and I will pick a song alternatively on each Monday and share our thoughts about them. Timy’s pick this week is Born to Die by Aron Andras.

Born to Die was released in January this year, but I only came across it recently, and it was an instant emotional punch. It’s a cover of Lana Del Rey‘s song, but since I don’t listen to her music, it was new to me. Apparently, András released a cover album in April, so go figure.

I’m also ashamed to say I never heard about Áron András (as you might have guessed, he is Hungarian, but it seems like he is making waves internationally. His voice is amazing, so I need to dig deeper into his discography.

Feet don’t fail me now
Take me to the finish line
Oh, my heart it breaks every step that I take
But I’m hoping that the gates, they’ll tell me that you’re mine
Walking through the city streets
Is it by mistake or design?
I feel so alone on the friday nights
Can you make it feel like home if I tell you you’re mine?

Don’t make me sad, don’t make me cry
Sometimes love is not enough
And the road gets tough, I don’t know why
Keep making me laugh
Let’s go get high
Thе road is long, we carry on
Try to have fun in the mеantime

Come and take a walk on the wild side
Let me kiss you hard in the pouring rain
You like your girls insane
Choose your last words, this is the last time
‘Cause you and I, we were born to die

Lost but now I am found
I can see that once I was blind
I was so confused as a little child
Tryna take what I could get
Scared that I couldn’t find

Don’t make me sad, don’t make me cry
Sometimes love is not enough
And the road gets tough, I don’t know why
Keep making me laugh
Let’s go get high
The road is long, we carry on
Try to have fun in the meantime

Come and take a walk on the wild side
Let me kiss you hard in the pouring rain
Like my girl’s insane
Choose your last words, this is the last time
‘Cause you and I, we were born to die

Don’t make me sad, don’t make me cry
Sometimes love is not enough
And the road gets tough, I don’t know why
Keep making me laugh
Let’s go get high
The road is long, we carry on
Try to have fun in the meantime

Come and take a walk on the wild side
Let me kiss you hard in the pouring rain
Like my girl’s insane
Choose your last words, this is the last time
‘Cause you and I, we were born to die
