Golden Barriers Lyrics

Fame is a lonely world
Success has its enemies
Look where its gotten us
Is this what we wanted?
It has nothing for me
What can you offer a man that has nothing to lose?
Fame is a lonely world
Success has its enemies

I'm sick and tired of looking past the things you do
I'm sick of sugar-coating everything I say
Was it good or evil that I sold my soul?
This is over my head, over your head, over my head anyway

Life can truly begin
When you have nothing to lose
I have nothing, nothing left to lose

Life can truly begin
When you have nothing to lose
I have nothing left to lose

I fear no death and no pain
I have nothing left to lose
I'm not scared of you
I'm not scared of you
I fear no death and no pain
I have nothing left to lose
I'm not scared of you
I'm not scared of you

We will not be stopped
You will not silence me

We are the new torch runners
We cannot be stopped
I fear no death and no pain
I have nothing left to lose
I'm not scared of you
I'm not scared of you

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.

The Marriage of Heaven and Hell is actually a book written by William Blake in the late 1700s. All of the song titles from this album are taken from the first 10 lines of the poem "A Song of Liberty." A lot of the lyrics and ideas from this song come from The Marriage of Heaven and Hell as well.
