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 from running  

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 from running 

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  

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  

We are not what you think we are 

We are golden, we are golden.
