Been thinkin' 'bout those kids
Been thinkin' 'bout those kids back in '99
The gas leakin' in the creek
A fire cracker then a spark
In a moment they were
Gone, gone
Gone, gone
A house shaken by the blast
Black smoke filled the wind of the landscape
The sirens crying through the streets
Choppers hovering like vultures above a meal
Gone, gone
Gone, gone
Gone, gone
Gone, gone
In the waters where we used to swim
Where we thought we would be young forever
But beads that glisten on your sunburnt skin
Evaporated in the flames and embers
Been thinkin' 'bout those kids
Been thinkin' 'bout those kids back in '99
Wonder who they were then
Not a spark then a flash
In a moment they were
Gone, gone
Gone, gone
Gone, gone
Gone, gone
Gone, gone
Gone, gone
