The Kids Lyrics

Cover art for The Kids lyrics by Lou Reed

This song belongs in the movie Gone Baby Gone for sure. "And I am the Water Boy, the real game's not over here/But my heart is overflowin' anyway" means being useless and powerless, watching life go by. Being in some kind of bubble where nothing ever happens, meaninglessness + still caring=torture.
