The Offspring "The kids aren't alright" lyrics

The kids aren't alright

When we were young the future was so brightThe old neighborhood was so aliveAnd every kid on the whole damn streetWas gonna make it big and not be beat

Now the neighborhood's cracked and tornThe kids are grown up but their lives are wornHow can one little streetSwallow so many lives

[Chorus]Chances thrownNothing's freeLonging for what used to beStill it's hardHard to seeFragile lives, shattered dreams

Jamie had a chance, well she really didInstead she dropped out and had a couple of kidsMark still lives at home cause he's got no jobHe just plays guitar and smokes a lot of pot

Jay committed suicideBrandon OD'd and diedWhat the hell is going onThe cruelest dream, reality

[Chorus x2]
