Fall Out Boy Song Lyrics

The Kids Aren't Alright

Stuck in the jet wash
A bad road trip couldn't get off
Maybe I bit off more than I could chew
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 street

And the black banners raise
As the crooked smiles fade
Former hero's who quit too late
Who just wanted to fill up their 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
Kids aren't alright
I'm yours
When it rains it pours
Stay thirsty like before
Don't you know that the kids aren't,
Kids aren't alright

I'm not passive but aggressive
Take note its 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 it to be
Maul the world like a carnival bear set free
And your love is anaemic
And I can't believe that you couldn't see it coming from me 

I still feel that rush in my veins
It twists my head just a bit to think
All those people in the 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
Kids aren't alright
I'm yours
When it rains it pours
Stay thirsty like before
Don't you know that the kids aren't,
Kids aren't alright

Sometimes I just want to sit around and gaze at my shoes
Yeah
And let your dirty sadness fill me up 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
Kids aren't alright
I'm yours
When it rains it pours
Stay thirsty like before
Don't you know that the kids aren't,
Kids aren't alright
