"Wildflower Wildfire" is a song about finding love and support in someone who helps you overcome your past and encourages personal growth. It encourages choosing a path of healing instead of perpetuating cycles of hurt and destruction.
The song talks about the struggles of personal growth and overcoming past traumas. In the first verse, the singer promises to be gentle and supportive in a relationship. She compares herself to a bed of wildflowers that will always make the sheets smell sweet and nourish her partner.
In the pre-chorus, the singer reveals that she has been running on "stardust" alone for so long, and she wouldn't know what hot fire was without her partner. She acknowledges that being with him makes her a better person.
The chorus emphasizes the singer's desire not to become a destructive force in the relationship, like those who have hurt her in the past. She promises to be like a wildflower, living on sheer willpower, and to never turn into something that burns.
In the second verse, the singer shares a personal experience of dealing with a mother who was quick to anger, and a father who failed to intervene. She coped with her trauma through drugs and poetry, and it was only through her partner's love that she was able to learn and grow.
It is the eleventh track from Lana Del Rey's eighth studio album, Blue Banisters.
