Chelsea Wolfe Lyrics
It's a machine we're up against
Devoid of reason, devoid of sense
It's a system full of regret
We wear it on our shoulders
We could be two straight lines in a crooked world
We could be two straight lines in a crooked world
They've created

Chelsea Joy Wolfe was born in Roseville, California, and grew up in Sacramento. She is of Norwegian and German descent. Her father was in a country band and owned a home studio. By the age of 7, she had written her first poem and by the age of 9, she had written and recorded songs which she later described as "basically Casio-based gothy R&B songs."
Inspired by the dark state of the world and the strange connection between all things, she creates a unique musical blend of goth-folk, experimental rock and spiritual realm funeral songs. With influences ranging from the great minds of Ingmar Bergman and David Lynch to Soviet and end-times literature, her songs conjure visions of other dimensions, claustrophobic echo-rooms and parking garage cathedrals.
Wolfe has recorded seven full length studio albums: The Grime and the Glow, which was released on December 28th, 2010 on limited vinyl through Brooklyn’s Pendu Sound Recordings; Ἀποκάλυψις (pronounced “Apokalypsis”), which was released as a 12” LP on August 23rd, 2011; Unknown Rooms: a Collection of Acoustic Songs, which was released on October, 2012 through Sargent House; Pain Is Beauty, out September 3rd, 2013; Abyss, which was released August 7th, 2015; and Hiss Spun, out September 22nd, 2017; Birth of Violence[7i] which was released on September 13th, 2019.

It's a machine we're up against
Devoid of reason, devoid of sense
It's a system full of regret
We wear it on our shoulders
Someday, we'll win
We could be two straight lines
In a crooked world
We could be two straight lines
In a crooked world they've created
It's a machine we're up against
Devoid of reason, devoid of sense

first song of hers I ever listened to and have been addicted ever since. I would drink alone and listen to this song on repeat. I feel like the creature in H.P. Lovecraft's "The Outsider" and I live alone in the woods playing with the butterflies.

I went to this small community college in a tiny Oregon town for a whole year... the location of the campus was way out by itself in the woods. This song was on a playlist I had that I would listen to while I did math problems on a computer in a small room (usually by myself). Even though that was a while ago, this song still evokes strange emotions of loneliness, silence, deep thought, stillness, and algebra.

By yourself especially, or maybe that’s why it’s better to be out in the woods...by yourself
ryshenton
Hahah be careful there in the woods
THE BEST MODE
Don't worry. It gets better. Then worse. Then better...

I’m late to discovering Chelsea, but this is sure some healing music for sure.

Unworthy Unbeliever Spun was actually the first of hers I checked out. Most of it dark, but there were still some songs that evokes some sort of positive emotion. To me at least. Sorry for the late reply.
