The Faculty [1998] (movie) - The Kids Aren't Alright lyrics

When we were young our future was so bright (whoa, oh!) The old neighborhood was so alive (whoa, oh!) And every kid on the whole damn street (whoa, oh!) Was gonna make it big and not be beat Now our neighborhood's cracked and torn (whoa, oh!) The kids are grown up but their lives are worn (whoa, oh!) 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 (Whoa!) Jamie had a chance, well she really did (whoa, oh!) Instead she dropped out and had a couple of kids (whoa, oh!) Mark still lives at home cause he's got no job (whoa, oh!) He just plays guitar and smokes a lot of pot Jay committed suicide (whoa, oh!) Brandon OD'd and died (whoa, oh!) 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 Chances Thrown Nothing's free Longing for what used to be Still it's hard Hard to see Fragile lives, shattered dreams
