The Kids Aren’t Alright

[Verse]
We were young, the future was so bright
All the neighbourhood was so alive
Every kid on the whole damn street
Was gonna make it big and not be beat

Now the neighbourhood's cracked and torn
The kids have grown up, but their lives are worn, oh
How can one little street
Swallow so many lives?

[Chorus]
Chances thrown, nothing's free
Longing for what used to be
Still it's hard, hard to see
Fragile lives, shattered dreams

[Chorus]
Chances thrown, nothing's free
Longing for what used to be
Still it's hard, it's hard to see
Fragile lives, shattered dreams

[Outro]
And still it's hard, yeah it's hard to see
Fragile lives, shattered dreams
