They conveniently left the most important lyrics out of the lyric video (and the best part of the song musically too), but they included them in the official vid...
5:08 sequence begins, I am notoriously bad at hearing lyrics correctly but this is what I gather...
Quote:Beauty loved the beast
But he just stares into the sun
There ain't no heaven
The angels here are the only ones
They fall like lucifer
They can't be God
I fall like lucifer
They can't be God
And now I'm here on Earth
Because I love an angel baby
Pretty much 100% speaks for itself.
What I gather from the video is that Grimes is basically saying she let Elon 'kill' her because "If she loved him any less, she'd make him stay"...
He stabs her in the stomach and I think this represents the fact that he basically chained her up for life with their child (her first/only baby as of now).
She's 'bound' to Earth because she loves the angel baby.
Of course maybe there's supposed to be a comma after that "I love an angel" lyric...
But I interpret it as Grimes being chained to Elon because of the child.
This is also sort of represented by the clip at 1:01 with the sword between her legs...
Symbolically I think it's all talking about their kid.
Another thing that backs up the "angel baby" idea is one of Grimes' NFTs...

I think somewhere she claimed the "angel baby" was supposed to be her...
Or maybe that's something I read in an article and it was just an assumption.
In any case, it's all pretty interesting.
Sounds like Grimes loved Elon, but he was also probably a nightmare to be with in a lot of ways.
I wish her the best being the babymomma of "the world's richest man"... she's gonna need strength.
