We are golden
Teenage dreams in a teenage circusRunning around like a clown on purposeWho gives a damnAbout the family you come from?No giving upWhen you’re young and you want some
Running around againRunning from runningRunning around againRunning from running
Waking up in the midday sunWhat’s to live for?You could see what I’ve doneStaring at emotionIn the light of dayI was runningFrom the things that you’d say
(Chorus)We are not what you think we areWe are golden, we are goldenWe are not what you think we areWe are golden, we are golden
Teenage dreams in a teenage circusRunning around like a clown on purposeWho gives a damnAbout the family you come from?No giving upWhen you’re young and you want some
Running around againRunning from runningRunning around againRunning from running
I was a boy at an open doorWhy you staring?Do you still think that you know?Looking for treasureIn the things that you threwLike a magpieI live for glitter, not you
(Chorus)
Teenage dreams in a teenage circusRunning around like a clown on purposeWho gives a damnAbout the family you come from?No giving upWhen you’re young and you want some
Now I’m sitting aloneI’m finally looking aroundLeft here on my ownI’m gonna hurt myselfMaybe losing my mindI’m still wondering whyHad to let the world, let it bleed me dry
We are not what you think we are, we are...We are not what you think we are, we are...We are not what you think we are, we are...We are golden, we are golden
Teenage dreams in a teenage circusRunning around like a clown on purposeWho gives a damnAbout the family you come from?No giving upWhen you’re young and you want some
Running around againRunning from runningRunning around againRunning from running
We are not what you think we areWe are golden, we are golden
