When we were young the future was so bright
Woah-oh!
The old neighborhood was so alive
Woah-oh!
And every kid on the whole damn street
Woah-oh!
Was gonna make it big and not be beat

Now the neighborhood's cracked and torn
Woah-oh!
The kids are grown up but their lives are worn
Woah-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

Jamie had a chance, well she really did
Woah-oh!
Instead she dropped out and had a couple of kids

Sing with the song of Offspring, The Kids Aren't Alright lyrics!

Woah-oh!
Mark still lives at home cause he's got no job
He just plays guitar and smokes a lot of pot

Jay committed suicide
Woah-oh!
Brandon OD'd and died
Woah-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

Profile:	Brian "Dexter" Holland : Vocals, guitar Kevin "Noodles" Wasserman : Guitar, vocals Gregory "Greg K" Kriesel : Bass, vocals Adam "Atom" Willard: Drums Ron Welty : Drums, vocals (1987-2003) In 1984 the punkrock band Manic Subsidal started to perform. At that time the members were Brian Holland (vocals, guitar), Greg Kriesel (bas, vocals) and James Frederick Lilja (drums). James Lilja left the band in 1987 and Kevin Wasserman and Ron Welty joined and they now called themselves The Offspring when they were performing. In 2003 Ron Welty left the band and they had no drummer in about a half year, but Atom Willard joined the group in the ending of 2003. That's the reason why they used a studio-drummer, Josh Freese, on the Splinter album.
