Piper: The Kids Aren't Alright

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

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

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

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

We put your curse in reverse

More the war like the carnival bears set free

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

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

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 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

And I'll be yours

When it rains it pours

Don't you know that the kids aren't all, kids aren't alright
