Good Kids Lyrics by Alex Mattson

2017

[Verse 1]
Mama, don't stay up all night and wait
When we go out we're gonna be late
We're not okay but we will be someday
Just like you said mama, some things take time
When you stare at them flickering lights
The pain fades away, so let the music play
[Pre-Chorus]
We need someone to love for a while
A little help to get us higher
When we're feeling low
[Chorus]
We're just good kids on bad drugs
We're good kids with sad hearts
We're just good kids on bad drugs
We're good kids with sad hearts
[Verse 2]
Mama, I'm sorry I'm not gonna lie
But what we do should not be a crime
I know it's wrong but it won't go on for long
Mama, I know this love isn't for real
But remind us of how good it feels
We're not alone and we take care of our own
[Pre-Chorus]
We need someone to love for a while
A little help to get us higher
When we're feeling low
[Chorus]
We're just good kids on bad drugs
We're good kids with sad hearts
We're just good kids on bad drugs
We're good kids with sad hearts
[Bridge]
Because sometimes, when we're feeling low to get high
It's the only way to go
It's the only way we know
When we're feeling low
Sometimes, when we're not alright we go hard
Until the morning light
It's the only way we know
When we're feeling low
[Chorus]
We're just good kids on bad drugs
We're good kids with sad hearts
Good kids on bad drugs
We're good kids with sad hearts
We're just good kids on bad drugs
We're good kids with sad hearts
[Outro]
Good kids on bad drugs
We're good kids with sad hearts
