Death Cab For Cutie – Kids In '99 lyrics
[Verse 1]
Thinkin' 'bout those kids
Thinkin' 'bout those kids back in '99
Gas leakin' in the creek
A firecracker then a spark
In a moment they were
[Refrain]
Gone, gone
Gone, gone
[Verse 2]
House shaken by the blast
Black smoke filled the wind of the landscape
Sirens crying through the streets
Choppers hovering like vultures above a meal
[Refrain]
Gone, gone
Gone, gone
Gone, gone
Gone, gone
[Bridge]
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
[Verse 3]
Thinkin' 'bout those kids
Thinkin' 'bout those kids back in '99
Wonder who they were then
Not a spark then a flash
In a moment they were
[Refrain]
Gone, gone
Gone, gone
Gone, gone
Gone, gone
Gone, gone
Gone, gone
Thinkin' 'bout those kids
Thinkin' 'bout those kids back in '99
Gas leakin' in the creek
A firecracker then a spark
In a moment they were
[Refrain]
Gone, gone
Gone, gone
[Verse 2]
House shaken by the blast
Black smoke filled the wind of the landscape
Sirens crying through the streets
Choppers hovering like vultures above a meal
[Refrain]
Gone, gone
Gone, gone
Gone, gone
Gone, gone
[Bridge]
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
[Verse 3]
Thinkin' 'bout those kids
Thinkin' 'bout those kids back in '99
Wonder who they were then
Not a spark then a flash
In a moment they were
[Refrain]
Gone, gone
Gone, gone
Gone, gone
Gone, gone
Gone, gone
Gone, gone
