Offspring The Kids Arent Alright

The Kids Aren t All Right 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 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 OD d and died, What the Hell is going 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 Когда мы молоды, то будущее свет, А лучше нашего квартала в мире нет И детвора на этой улице Мечтала в жизни многого Теперь квартал разрушен и забыт,
