We Are Golden (acoustic version) Lyrics

Waking up in the midday sun
What's to live for?
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 d*** 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 d*** about the family you come from?
No giving up when you're young and you want some

Now I'm sitting alone
And I'm looking for help
Left here on my own
I'm gonna hurt myself
Maybe losing my mind
I'm still wondering why
I ever let the world let it bleed me dry
We are not what you think we are
We are not what you think we are

Teenage dreams in a teenage circus
Running around like a clown on purpose
Who gives a d*** about the family you come from?
No giving up when you're young and you want some

Teenage dreams in a teenage circus
Running around like a clown on purpose
Who gives a d*** 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
