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 for money

Waking up in the midday sun

What's to live for?

You could see what I've done

Staring at emotion

In the light of day

I was running 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

(repeat)

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

Had to let the world let it bleed me dry

We are not what you think we are

We are not what you think we are

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

(repeat)

We are not what you think we are

We are golden, we are golden
