"American Darkness" Lyrics
when you come dead last
in battles long past
intended to rip my heart out
oracle of your secrets
your eye was trained on me
as i stood before you, unbuttoning
kiss me as the bell tolls
swiftly, as the horses ride
won’t you dance
won’t you dance
won’t you dance
won’t you dance
damn my dreams, the tormentors
last night your mouth was on my skin
and the poppies were like fire on the mountain
i took your hand and led you home
all my old ways have started kickin in
and my bad days are comin round again
left here in American darkness
river on fire and sun eclipsed
won’t you dance
won’t you dance
won’t you dance
won’t you dance
(cause i’m comin)
when you come
when you come
when you come
when you come back to me

I like how she has a different style for every album. She didn't stick 100% with the lo-fi, industrial, electronic, or metal sounds for longer than she wanted to. I love artists who experiment with their music.

You can actively see this through her catalogue. It's very similar to Gary Numan.

A little more than a year ago a dear friend of mine has passed, and this song always reminds me of him for some reason. I know he will never come back, but the feeling of longing and waiting for that moment is now always with me.

this song, this video just radiates a sense of calm found in the darkness that sometimes love puts us in. it is a dangerous state of mind, unless you turn it into something beautiful and haunting like chelsea did. great song, as always.

friend of my parents bought me that book when I was 14 in 1976... loved it... was a lot deeper than most of the other stuff I was reading at the time (John Wyndham mostly, and Richard Adams) - didn't read it again till 2017 - loved it... easily in my top 10 sci fi books of all time, along with The Dispossessed... and loving Chelsea's work! Thanks for associating it! I think this is my favourite song of hers...
