Lyrics We Are Golden - MIKA

We Are Golden

Teenage dreams in a teenage circus
Running around like a clown on purpose
Who gives a damn about the family you come from
No giving up when you’re young and you want some
Running around again (running around again)
Running from running
Running around again (running around again)
Running from running
Waking up in the midday sun
What’s to live for when you could see what I’ve done?
Staying out of motion in the light of day
I was hiding from the things that you’d say
We are not what you think we are
We are golden, we are golden
We are not what you think we are
We are golden, we are golden
Teenage dreams in a teenage circus
Running around like a clown on purpose
Who gives a damn about the family you come from
No giving up when you’re young and you want some
Running around again (running around again)
Running from running
Running around again (running around again)
Running from running
I was a boy at an open door, why you staring?
Do you still think that you know?
Looking for treasure in the things that you threw
Like a magpie, I live for glitter not you
We are not what you think we are
We are golden, we are golden
We are not what you think we are
We are golden, we are golden
Teenage dreams in a teenage circus
Running around like a clown on purpose
Who gives a damn about the family you come from
No giving up when you’re young and you want some
Now I’m sitting alone, I’m finally looking around
Left here on my own, I’m gonna hurt myself
Maybe losing my mind, I’m still wondering why
I had to let the world, let it bleed me dry
We are not what you think we are
We are not
We are not what you think we are
We are not
We are not what you think we are
We are golden, we are golden
Teenage dreams in a teenage circus
Running around like a clown on purpose
Who gives a damn about the family you come from
No giving up when you’re young and you want some
Running around again (running around again)
Running from running
Running around again (running around again)
Running from running
We are not what you think we are
We are golden, we are golden
We are not what you think we are
We are golden, we are golden
We are not what you think we are
We are golden, we are golden
