distance hides it all so well
always seems to freak me out
much too late to turn around
your reflections always wearing me down
given into your charm 
what more do you want 
are you really gonna make me beg 
it's much too late what more do you want 

yeah cause it's so much fun 
just know it's gonna tear you apart 
people run right past 
before it even starts
that's just fine
even if you suck my blood
never had to make sense 
cause 50/50 ain't so bad I guess

finally wrapped your head around
you'll never find a place like this
so blind yourself and turn around
don't try so hard to figure it out
you long for more well that's a shame
never was your choice to make 
forget it all don't beg for more

yeah cause it's so much fun 
just know it's gonna tear you apart 
people run right past 
before it even starts
that's just fine
even if you suck my blood
never had to make sense 
cause 50/50 ain't so bad I guess

A Colossal Waste Of Light

They Said So

Following up their *very* well-received 2021 self-titled debut album, Chime School are back with more perfect pop, this time on the most pop of formats, the 7" single. "Coming To Your Town" was recorded while sick with COVID and rather fittingly is a feverish attempt to describe the reactionary political moment that seemed to infect the Bay Area during the pandemic. Leave it to Chime School to pen a classic 12-string jangle pop tune about the breakdown of civil society. It's not all cats and motorbikes chez Chime School! On the flip side we have the band's lovely Brighter/Field Mice-esque take of Buzzcocks' "Love You More." Originally released on the Oakland Weekender Buzzcocks covers cassette, it's available on vinyl here for the first time.

Thoughts are looking up again.
I bend my ear to hear the calling wind.
Can you see me in this lame odyssey?
Am I coming in clearly?
I want to see the light in your eyes.
I want to see the light in your eyes.
I want to see the light in your eyes.
I want to see the light in your eyes.
Happy to see me, you were
Happy to see me, you were
Happy to see me, you were
Happy to see me,
Looking alive as alive can be.
I remember the summer,
One long dead.
I recall the fever now and then,
Of the summer,
One long dead.
Happy to see me,
Looking alive as alive can be.
Happy to see me,
Looking alive as alive can be,
and I'm in love again.

Why’s the night never seem so long?
Where’s y’gone where’s your heart belong?
It was bang bang it was all bang bang.
Light up in song I was born to dance.

Every day do you feel like the world’s astray?
Every day do you feel like the world’s in vain?
So let the starts reprise to the seeker and,
give the gutter something to believe in.

And it takes a lifetime to reconcile stress.
Hold a mirror up to what the Banshee said.
You can tumble dice you can’t make it set,
So lose your mind in the midst of the dancing set.

Why’s the night never seem so long?
Where’s y’gone where’s your heart belong?
It was bang bang it was all bang bang.
Light up in song I was born to dance.

Why’s the night never seem so long?
Where’s y’gone where’s your heart belong?
It was bang bang it was all bang bang.
Light up in song I was born to dance.

Each day does a figurine fall away?
Each day does the wind’s sincerity sway?
Let the snowbird sing, dusk ‘til dawn,
And let the soiree fall until a baby’s born.

The ceiling is ripe and it’s ten-pins tall.
Commoners dream to feel the power of it all.
I see those who are thirsty can’t seem to pour.
I want to be something but want to be adored.

Why’s the night never seem so long?
Where’s y’gone where’s your heart belong?
It was bang bang it was all bang bang.
Light up in song I was born to dance.

Why’s the night never seem so long?
Where’s y’gone where’s your heart belong?
It was bang bang it was all bang bang.
Light up in song I was born to dance.

Why’s the night never seem so long?
Where’s y’gone where’s your heart belong?
It was bang bang it was all bang bang.
Light up in song I was born to dance.

Why’s the night never seemed so long?
Where’s y’gone where’s your heart belong?
It was bang bang it was all bang bang.
Black Country slang is where we like to dance.
