Gold in a Brass Age Lyrics

[Verse 1]
In search of sleep, I close my eyes
My head is filled with bugs and flies
I don't know if you realize
How much it means
Pray, tell me where that feeling went
I gave my best by accident
In vain, I stride to represent

[Refrain]
How much it means
How much it means
How much it means

[Verse 2]
Am I lost for words?
My mind heads forward
It's gone the moment I reach the walls
Gets grounded up on top
Still I'm trying to hold it up

[Verse 3]
It's people who have lost their faith
Who speak of life, but play it safe
Arise, dear fool
The days breathe
Don't you see

[Refrain]
How much it means
How much it means
How much it means
How much it means

[Outro]
Every moment I got (Yeah)
Every moment I got (Yeah), yeah
Every moment I got (Yeah)
Every moment I got (Yeah)
How much it means, yeah (Yeah)
Every minute I got (Yeah)
Everything in my heart (Yeah)
How much it means, yeah (Yeah)
Yeah (Yeah), yeah (Yeah)
Said yeah (Yeah), yeah (Yeah)
It's gone the moment I breathe

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.
