Teenage Angst Lyrics

It's about teenage angst but it's also a bit sarcastic, I think. "Since I was born I started to decay. Now nothing ever - ever goes my way." Sort of sums up the battle cry of angsty teens... like there's nothing to be cranky about so lets be cranky about the world not being fair (and we all know it never is lol) and dying eventually (because you know we all do and its nothing we can stop). I really like how tongue in cheek it all is.

Yep, Its a bit like stamping your foot, or slamming the front door cos when your a young teen its the only way to vent anger! Life ain't fair when you're told no!
