The Kids Aren't Alright

In the style of

The Offspring

Lyrics

when we were young
the future
was so bright
the old
neighborhood
was so alive

and every kid
on the
whole damn street
was gonna
make it big
and not be beat

now the
neighborhood's
cracked and torn
the kids are grown-up
but their lives
are worn

how can one
little street
swallow
so many lives
chances thrown
nothing's free
longing for
what used to be

still it's hard
hard to see
fragile lives
shattered dreams
go

jamie had a chance
well she really did
instead
she dropped out
and had
a couple of kids

mark still
lives at home
'cause he's got no job
he just plays guitar
and smokes
a lotta pot

jay committed
suicide
brandon o.d.'d
and died

what the hell
is goin' on
the cruelest
dream reality
chances thrown
nothing's free
longing for
what used to be

still it's hard
hard to see
fragile lives
shattered dreams
go

chances thrown
nothing's free
longing for
what used to be

still it's hard
hard to see
fragile lives
shattered dreams
