We Are Golden - MIKA

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
