Neon Golden Lyrics

Neon golden like all the lights.
Neon golden.
Don't leave me here for I glow.
Neon golden.

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.

Weakest track on the album for me, but still great. Goes to show how good this album actually is. My favourite album from last year, definitely.

Hard to tell the meaning... perhaps it's about being unappreciated?

Love the title of this song.

Neon; the most vibrant, man-made, synthetic, quality and Golden; the most vibrant natural, earthly quality.

Summarizes the entire album really beautifully, natural acoustic elements in simultaneous contrast and complement to the glitchy electronic-ness.
