Chimes Lyrics

Smoke it clears, lights up
There's no way that I can go
Through the heroes that I owe
Task force, marched out
With the people that I know
And the records down below

Climbing the stairs
Out from the club
Kissing the light
Missing your love
Up to the streets
With you on my mind
The war starts again
But you'll never be mine

I want you more, I can't help but want you more
I can't stop chasing your love
I want you more, I can't help but want you more
I can't stop chasing your love
Chasing your love
I can't help but want you more
I can only call this all
I might start living again

Long lost, cab rides
Through the city that I love
All the place you tearing up
Movement, pulled in
And the records that they play
Never touched you the same way

Climbing the stairs
Out from the club
Kissing the light
Missing your love
Up to the streets
With you on my mind
The war starts again
But you'll never be mine

And the world is still the same today
And the world is still right here, right here
As I open my eyes
It's all just the same as I left it

Live Those Days Tonight

Smoke it clears, lights up
There's no way that I can go
Through the heroes that I owe
Task force, marched out
With the people that I know
And the records down below

Climbing the stairs
Out from the club
Kissing the light
Missing your love
Up to the streets
With you on my mind
The war starts again
But you'll never be mine

I want you more, I can't help but want you more
I can't stop chasing your love
I want you more, I can't help but want you more
I can't stop chasing your love
Chasing your love
I can't help but want you more
I can only call this all
I might start living again
 
Long lost, cab rides
Through the city that I love
All the place you tearing up
Movement, pulled in
And the records that they play
Never touched you the same way

Climbing the stairs
Out from the club
Kissing the light
Missing your love
Up to the streets
With you on my mind
The war starts again
But you'll never be mine

And the world is still the same today
And the world is still right here, right here
As I open my eyes
It's all just the same as I left it

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
