"Ride" is an anthem for those who are searching for stability and purpose in their lives. Lana evokes images of a life of wandering, without a clear destination, and of having to take risks in order to make it. The chorus speaks to the her loneliness and her internal struggle, as she has a war in her mind between doing what is easy and doing what is right. She has to "just ride" and trust that things will turn out -- even if she doesn't know the outcome.
