How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]

Genius Annotation

Overview
Although most of the album features elements of pessimism, “Golden” stands out as the song that presents feelings of complete and utter hopelessness.

To date, it is one of the shortest Fall Out Boy songs. It is also the only one that exclusively uses the piano.
