Gold Lyrics

Hey my lover made of glass and skin
Oh you promised me once I'd never cry again
But I know, yeah I know where you've been
Hey my lover made of glass and skin
Are you out in the alley where the blood is thin
Cause I know, yeah I know where you've been

And is it cold in december when the devil calls
You got your raspberry heartache and your alcohol
Yea I know
Yea I know where you've been
Hey my lover made of ash and bone
Oh you promised me twice I'd never be alone
But I know
Yea I know where you've been

Hey my lover made of ash and bone
I'm gonna break my heart here on this microphone
Cause I know
Yeah I know where you've been
And is it cold in the hollow of the neon lights
Sometimes a slave looks like
An angel when you look at her right
Yeah I know
Yeah I know where ya been

Hey my lover made of ash and tears
Oh you promised me twice you'd never leave me here
But I know, I know where you've been
Hey my lover made of ash and tears
I'm gonna meet you in the sky where the air is clear
Cause I know
Yea I know where you've been

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.
