Golden Age Of My Negative Ways Lyrics

Sit back and watch the train wreck
Watch me jump off the deep end
I won't lie, my mistakes take up every minute of my life

It's been the downfall of me
that misery just loves my company
And this voice is scared to say that I don't really mind.

Cause it's the golden age of my negative ways
I wouldn't want it any other way today
I wouldn't want it any other way.

I'm just a codependent
unemployed and unimportant
I wont lie, my missteps confuse everyone in my life

I don't have an answer
of why I'm why I'm always moving backwards
And this voice is scared to say I don't really mind

And I always walk the line
between lows and highest highs
and I don't mind.

Cause it's the golden age of my negative ways
I wouldn't want it any other way today
I wouldn't want it any other way.

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.

I know someone like this. The sad fact is that they really don't mind being unemployed, codependent and not going anywhere.
