When We Were Young The Future Was So Bright


The Old Neighborhood Was So Alive


And Every Kid On The Whole Damn Street


Was Gonna Make It Bib And Not Be Beat





Now The Neighborhood Is Cracked And Torn


The Kids Are Grown Up But Their Lifes Are Worn


How Can One Little Street


Swallow So Many Lifes?





Chances Thrown, Nothing`s Free


Longing For What Used To Be


Still It`s Hard, Hard To See


Fragile Lifes, Shattered Dreams





Jamie Had A Chance, Well She Really Did


Instead She Dropped Down And Had A Couple Of Kids


Mark Still Lives At Homr Cause He`s Got No Job


He Just Plays Guitar And Smokes A Lot Of Pot
