Chelsea Wolfe - 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'
Cause I'm comin'
Cause I'm comin'
Cause I'm comin'

When you come
When you come
When you come
When you come back to me

  26. J.... A....

  29. J.... K....

    Rarely , very rarely , I came upon such a sweet blend ov Innocence , laced with Perversity .

  30. R.... G....

    Circle, circle, circle, circle, circle, circle, circle, circle.

    R.... G....

    I also know why she chose to include (or exclude) a few cards.

  31. R.... S....

    Holy shit Chelsea. I’m definitely getting this album lmao

  32. E.... o....

    Gaby Herstik ruined this video

  34. n.... ....

    Goddess ♡

  35. R.... W....

    this is not only a song, it’s a transcendental moment to enjoy it on your deep inner self! I JUST LOVE WHAT CHELSEA DOES! its magical! and the space she gives to show the plurality of women that learn and transpass their knowledge to other women, showing a real union and strength! ITS AMAZING!!!

  36. i.... k....

    Lana del get out

  37. R.... L....

    I am in love with this woman!

  38. C.... S....

    Hooray for these chords 👍

  39. D.... J....

    This songs continue growing on me. Love it... but the video... well... i like, but not like the song for itsefl.

  40. B.... R....

    Buckle up, Lana!

  41. S.... M....

    I prefer her doom stuff more but this is pretty good too.

    S.... M....

    I prefer not to see these songs on social media. They suck they're boring and attract sad ppl that cry too much.

  42. r.... ....

    THE QUEEN IS BACK 🖤

  43. T.... I....

    So beautiful

  44. N.... ....

    It's beautiful, my queen.

  45. w.... a....

    No comment can outshine her poetry.

  46. N.... A....

    "American Darkness" debuted on the New Alternative 40 Chart this week!

    N.... A....

    53k? Wtf

  47. S.... H....

    This song is addiction

  48. H.... ....

    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.

    H.... ....

    Hex Nigh is the New Day is a gem!! My all time wet dream is a Chelsea and Katatonia collab.

    H.... ....

    I do as well. I was worried for a while that she was becoming too dark metal and as much as it's good, this is how prefer Chelsea. Reminds me a bit of her earlier work.

    H.... ....

    Because the music sucks. That's why so many styles. Trying to fit in.

  49. A.... A....

    What a talented and beautiful woman.

  50. T.... L....

    Ngl I'm usually not that impressed with her music videos but this was wonderful. It really felt more like a music video then others have. There were some beautiful shots. The lip syncing was consistently accurate. And there was a lot that I didn't expect but definitely ended up enjoying.

  51. A.... C....

    🌖🌚🌔

  52. T.... S....

    I used to think “oh hey that’s an interesting fad, why is everyone wearing all black like that?” Then I realized...it wasn’t a trend.

  53. T.... S....

    lol Chelsea Wolfe. Is Chelsea Wolfe sad or does she just take delight in tormenting herself I’m scared to find out but I really want to sometimes

  54. P.... I....

    🎶🦇🎶

  55. A.... M....

    I saw your show with Ministry last year in Buffalo, NY it was epic! It was an amazing show! Thank you so much for coming please come back soon!

  56. A.... M....

    I love this song! Huggies from Niagara Falls, New York!

  57. D.... ....

    this entire song reminds me of an overcast windy and rainy day. I almost feel like I can feel the wind on my face.

  58. J.... O....

    chelsea is unmatched in plumming the sweet dark depths of the soul. the outro is such dreamy perfection

    J.... O....

    Dark depths of the soul? Can you prove this said soul?

  59. D.... V....

    I need a few hrs to just play this album in full again and again. I think that'll be cool.

  60. C.... l....

    This song/video makes me think about everything. Beautiful.

  61. D.... D....

    One of the most moving pieces of music to come out in utterly forever, Chelsea Wolfe is my favorite female singer of all time and that's saying a lot.

    No one can compare to the beauty and melancholy that she encompasses, from every tone to every pitch...she is complete excellence on the artistic spectrum.

  62. J.... ....

    ❤️🧡💛💚 💙 💜

  63. O.... S....

    Didn´t feel a really dark vibe coming from this.

  64. w.... t....

    lovely as always.. ever haunting.

  65. s.... h....

    OMG this is so VHS GOLD i love it i've missed this vibe <3

  66. N.... ....

    🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤

  67. A.... K....

    Nice concept for a video, but boring song. Never thought Chelsea was going to be the 'retread' type of artist.

  68. S.... g....

    Love this song! Can't wait for this record

  69. A.... A....

    Goddess

  70. d.... ....

    I usually really dislike her music videos, and this... is no exception. But, she's an amazing artist and this is a beautiful departure from what she's been doing the past couple years.

    d.... ....

    I agree. Her videos are weird and very dark but I love her voice.

  71. A.... M....

    Lovelly this song!

  72. Y.... R....

    Yay! Buen trabajo. Te amo Chelsea❤ you bring me peace

  73. M.... B....

    Great song, very elegant!

  74. N.... a....

    🖤🖤🖤

  75. L.... N....

    natural women energy, in a full beauty of life, finally runs though. and thx to share it.

  76. D.... R....

    60fps video = garbage

  77. T.... B....

    I love that this video was released on the lunar eclipse in Capricorn. Cap/Saturn/the Devil, the great reminder. Reminds us this full moon was good for release. Reminds us that time is VERY real in our dimension. The credits were also great, brought the whole thing together.

    T.... B....

    Saturn and Venus square off today also

  78. S.... N....

    Days r numbered for Birth of violence..i♥️u Chelsea..🤘🤘

  79. 1.... ....

    this kicked right in time with my depression back last night... a little understanding from chelsea, love you

    1.... ....

    Funny how all these ppl on these videos are depressed. I guess they have a weak ass will. After everything i been through i find it comical that ppl dwell and are depressed over small shit.

    1.... ....

    @Jeff Lawbowski it's just that...not all are strong-willed, due to different upbringing maybe?. It's idealistic that everyone shouldn't be a weakass in life though.

  80. v.... p....

    dancing and blood is here

  81. K.... ....

    Chelsea is precious... so unique🌚🌞🌹🥀💫💙

  82. C.... J....

    I like how all the characters have these epic ass names in the credits. The emperor, the empress, the lovers, etc

    C.... J....

    Christopher Jojola Are Tarot cards

    C.... J....

    @Melvin Fonseca Zúñiga makes sense

  83. M.... S....

    First, Drab Majesty and now *this* magnificent goddess releases a new video. And here I thought my week was about to suck. 🖤v

    M.... S....

    Omg I love drab majesty

    M.... S....

    @Blue Yesss <3 I have been musically obsessed with them for years. And their new album? Amazing.

  84. D.... ....

    Her talent is amazing. To think that this is the same person that gave us an extremely dark metal album just two years ago!

    D.... ....

    Music sucks but ok. You can have your opinion.

  85. S.... L....

    So beautiful!!! Thank you for your art!🖤

  86. N.... D....

    i feel lite as a leaf ~

  87. J.... A....

    Love how the video irradiates warmth and coldness at the same time but with a general feeling of well-being. You are the very best, Pale Goddess. This new album is gonna crush.

  88. s.... d....

    I'm loving this return to a more folk sound. She can do no wrong, really.

    s.... d....

    Music is shit itz all wrong.

  89. D.... B....

    Love it!

  90. L.... ....

    Yes ❤️

  91. F.... P....

  93. A.... S....

    She is totally connected with Mother Earth

  94. M.... S....

  95. C.... O....

    A wonderful surprise to see Semaj Peltier! The song is beautiful, this is the first album I’ve been around for the release of and it has been so powerful.

  96. S.... S....

    Stirring and deeply profound. Looking forward to her new album. This is beautiful!
