The Kids Aren't Alright

Intro:


Stuck in the jet wash

Bad trip I couldn t get off

And maybe I bit off more than I could chew

And overhead of the aqua blue


Fall to your knees bring on the rapture

Blessed be the boys time can t capture

On film or between the sheets

I always fall from your window to the pitch black streets


And with the black banners raised

As the crooked smiles fade

Former heroes who quit too late

Just wanna fill up the trophy case again

Refrão:


And in the end, I d do it all again

I think you re my best friend

Don t you know that the kids aren t all, kids aren t alright

I ll be yours, when it rains it pours

Stay thirsty I ll be fine

Don t you know that the kids aren t all, kids aren t alright


I m not passive but aggressive

Take note, it s not impressive

Empty your sadness like you re dumping your purse

On my bedroom floor, we put your curse in reverse


And it s our time now if you want to to be

More the war like the carnival bears set free

And your love is anemic and I can t believe

That you couldn t see it coming from me


And I still feel that rush in my veins

It twists my head just a bit too thin

All those people in those old photographs I ve seen are dead

Refrão:


And in the end, I d do it all again

I think you re my best friend

Don t you know that the kids aren t all, kids aren t alright

I ll be yours, when it rains it pours

Stay thirsty I ll be fine

Don t you know that the kids aren t all, kids aren t alright


And sometimes I just want to sit around, and gaze at my shoes yeah

And let your dirty sadness fill me up, just like a balloon


And in the end, I d do it all again

I think you re my best friend

Don t you know that the kids aren t all, kids aren t alright

I ll be yours, when it rains it pours

Stay thirsty I ll be fine

Don t you know that the kids aren t all, kids aren t alright
