Maybe in another life,

The Offspring's, "The Kids Aren't Alright"
The Lyrics:
Jamie had a chance, well she really did.
Instead, she dropped out and had a couple of kids.
Mark still lives at home 'cause he's got no job.
Just plays guitar, smokes a lot of pot.
Jay committed suicide.
Brandon OD'ed and died.
What the hell is going on?
The cruelest dream, reality.
Instead, she dropped out and had a couple of kids.
Mark still lives at home 'cause he's got no job.
Just plays guitar, smokes a lot of pot.
Jay committed suicide.
Brandon OD'ed and died.
What the hell is going on?
The cruelest dream, reality.
Why:
The song details the downfall of several kids who dreamed of making it big.
