verse 1
Was i born with complications?
An insufferable heart
After self imposed sedation
I spit petrol on a spark

pre-chorus
And if i could realise it
And if i could make it true
But i can’t photo-synthesise it
I’m trapped in bloom

chorus
Ghosts howl on
Help me to remember
We’re always
These chains chime on
But help me to remember
Always. always

verse 2
And i’m stuck with sticky pliers
I couldn’t peel back if i tried
And while you’re plucking off your eyelids
I suck whatever i can find

pre-chorus #2
But you couldn’t realise it
And you couldn’t make it true
But i can photoshop your eyes out
Cropped and glued

chorus
Ghosts howl on
Help me to remember
We’re always
These chains chime on
But help me to remember
Always

bridge
Never gonna work it out
It’s killing me, just what is love?
When i think i know, i know i don’t
If i was gonna know i’d know by now
Never gonna work it out
It’s killing me, just what is love?
When i think i know, i know i don’t
If i was gonna know i’d know by n-

intermission
Do you see through me when i lie?
Will you unveil me when i die?

bridge
Never gonna work it out
It’s killing me, just what is love?
When i think i know, i know i don’t
If i was gonna know i’d know by now
Never gonna work it out
It’s killing me, just what is love?
When i think i know, i know i don’t
If i was gonna know i’d know by now
(look at me) - just what is love?
(if you’ll ever know, you’d know by now
Even if you knew, you’d choke somehow)
(shit) tell me: what is love?
(we’re chasing rabbits, chasing rabbits…)

outro
Help me to remember
Help me to remember
Help me to remember
As my mind departs
Help me to remember
Help me to remember
Help me to remember
As my mind departs...

Biography

edit bio
Clarence Clarity is a producer, singer, and songwriter based in London. He was formerly known under various stage names, such as Entrepreneurs and as frontman of Elle Milano. He has been active under this name since 2012. His musical style ranges across alternative R&B, glitch pop, and noise, and is described by The Guardian’s Ian McQuaid as “a glitching, unsettling combination of sleaze, funk, static and collapse”.

He released his debut EP SAVE †HYSELF in 2013, and his sophomore EP Who Am Eye a year later. In 2015, he released his debut album NO NOW, which received modest press attention and favorable reviews. In 2016, he announced an upcoming second album, called Leave Earth, and in 2017, produced Rina Sawayama’s EP RINA.

In October 2018, Clarence released his second album, now under the name THINK: PEACE, alongside a single not on the album, 1985. At the same time he announced on his Twitter that Leave Earth had become a playlist consisting of singles he had made since 2016. He then released a series of singles, in pairs, over the course of 2018, finishing off the playlist by releasing Sob Story and Leave Earth on December 31st of that year.

Clarence served as the lead producer of Rina Sawayama’s debut album, SAWAYAMA, which was released in April 2020 and had production credits on all tracks, aside from “Comme des Garçons” and “Chosen Family”. In December of that year, the deluxe edition was released, featuring additional production from him on “We Out Here”, “Bees and Honey”, and her cover of The 1975’s “Love It If We Made It”.

Clarence began releasing a series of instrumental albums in 2020, with the ambient DEAD SCREEN SCROLLS in March, followed by AEROBIC EXERCISE in June and YOUR WRONG in February of 2021.

In a livestream, Clarence announced he planned on releasing a trilogy of EPs, at the time untitled. The trilogy’s title was revealed as VANISHING, with ACT I: NO NOUNS planned to release on September 23rd 2021.

He has stated multiple times that he was unaware of the meme when he chose the name “Clarence Clarity”, but thought it was apt in retrospect.
