I think this is just about the adolescent years, and about the people we loved, hated and cherished as teenagers...yet never spoke our sentiments to anybody due to self deprecation. Adolescence can seem like a prison, a never-ending winter, You try to talk to adults, but they never seem to understand, so you turn to things you probably shouldn't. Yeah, I think it is just about the pains and perils of being a teenager. It's bloody horrible.
