First of all, people always say that diet sodas are "healthy" or better for them, when in reality they are just as bad with added artificial sugars and such. I think this relates with the unhealthy relationship she has with a man--the one in which Lana ignores the bad, maybe even embraces it, because she loves him so much. She knows he is no good for her, but she wants him anyway. "Turn me to ashes" also shows she knows he's bad for her. She doesn't care what people think/say of her or "what the past says". They will take Jesus off the dashboard, even, so that truly no one can judge them. She loves him because he gives her a rush--the roller coaster, the speed, the high--and he will teach her "just what fast is," which is the feeling we know from her interviews she craves: feeling alive, young, wild, and free. That's why she loves the men that mostof us find terrible! She keeps asking "Do you think we'll be in love forever?", which to me is the first time on the album she shares the same doubts we as the listeners may have for their relationship (though, she surely is positive of her feelings/love for him)
